On the one class of hyperbolic systems

The classification problem is solved for some type of nonlinear lattices. These lattices are closely related to the lattices of Ruijsenaars-Toda type and define the Bäcklund auto-transformations for the class of two-component hyperbolic systems

On the structure of the B\"acklund transformations for the relativistic lattices

The B\"acklund transformations for the relativistic lattices of the Toda type and their discrete analogues can be obtained as the composition of two duality transformations. The condition of invariance under this composition allows to distinguish effectively the integrable cases. Iterations of the B\"acklund transformations can be described in the terms of nonrelativistic lattices of the Toda type. Several multifield generalizations are presented

On universality of critical behavior in the focusing nonlinear Schr\uf6dinger equation, elliptic umbilic catastrophe and the Tritronqu\ue9e solution to the Painlev\ue9-I equation

We argue that the critical behavior near the point of "gradient catastrophe" of the solution to the Cauchy problem for the focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation i epsilon Psi(t) + epsilon(2)/2 Psi(xx) + vertical bar Psi vertical bar(2)Psi = 0, epsilon << 1, with analytic initial data of the form Psi( x, 0; epsilon) = A(x)e(i/epsilon) (S(x)) is approximately described by a particular solution to the Painleve-I equation
