Integrable ODEs on Associative Algebras

In this paper we give definitions of basic concepts such as symmetries, first integrals, Hamiltonian and recursion operators suitable for ordinary differential equations on associative algebras, and in particular for matrix differential equations. We choose existence of hierarchies of first integrals and/or symmetries as a criterion for integrability and justify it by examples. Using our componentless approach we have solved a number of classification problems for integrable equations on free associative algebras. Also, in the simplest case, we have listed all possible Hamiltonian operators of low order.Comment: 19 pages, LaTe

Double Poisson brackets on free associative algebras

We discuss double Poisson structures in sense of M. Van den Bergh on free associative algebras focusing on the case of quadratic Poisson brackets. We establish their relations with an associative version of Young-Baxter equations, we study a bi-hamiltonian property of the linear-quadratic pencil of the double Poisson structure and propose a classification of the quadratic double Poisson brackets in the case of the algebra with two free generators. Many new examples of quadratic double Poisson brackets are proposed.Comment: 19 pages, late

Classification of integrable Vlasov-type equations

Classification of integrable Vlasov-type equations is reduced to a functional equation for a generating function. A general solution of this functional equation is found in terms of hypergeometric functions.Comment: latex, 15 pages, to appear in Theoretical and Mathematical Physic
