Hydrodynamic reductions and solutions of a universal hierarchy

The diagonal hydrodynamic reductions of a hierarchy of integrable hydrodynamic chains are explicitly characterized. Their compatibility with previously introduced reductions of differential type is analyzed and their associated class of hodograph solutions is discussed.Comment: 19 page

Elementary Darboux transformations and factorization

A general theorem on factorization of matrices with polynomial entries is proven and it is used to reduce polynomial Darboux matrices to linear ones. Some new examples of linear Darboux matrices are discussed.Comment: 10 page

The model equation of soliton theory

We consider an hierarchy of integrable 1+2-dimensional equations related to Lie algebra of the vector fields on the line. The solutions in quadratures are constructed depending on $n$ arbitrary functions of one argument. The most interesting result is the simple equation for the generating function of the hierarchy which defines the dynamics for the negative times and also has applications to the second order spectral problems. A rather general theory of integrable 1+1-dimensional equations can be developed by study of polynomial solutions of this equation under condition of regularity of the corresponding potentials.Comment: 17

The Canonical Symmetry for Integrable Systems

The properties of discrete nonlinear symmetries of integrable equations are investigated. These symmetries are shown to be canonical transformations. On the basis of the considered examples, it is concluded, that the densities of the conservation laws are changed under these transformations by spatial divergencies.Comment: 17 pages, LaTeX, IHEP 92-14

Dressing chain for the acoustic spectral problem

The iterations are studied of the Darboux transformation for the generalized Schroedinger operator. The applications to the Dym and Camassa-Holm equations are considered.Comment: 16 pages, 6 eps figure

Boundary Value Problems For Integrable Equations Compatible With The Symmetry Algebra

Boundary value problems for integrable nonlinear partial differential equations are considered from the symmetry point of view. Families of boundary conditions compatible with the Harry-Dym, KdV and MKdV equations and the Volterra chain are discussed. We also discuss the uniqueness of some of these boundary conditions.Comment: 25 pages , Latex , no figure

Discrete symmetry's chains and links between integrable equations

The discrete symmetry's dressing chains of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) and Davey-Stewartson equations (DS) are consider. The modified NLS (mNLS) equation and the modified DS (mDS) equations are obtained. The explicitly reversible Backlund auto-transformations for the mNLS and mDS equations are constructed. We demonstrate discrete symmetry's conjugate chains of the KP and DS models. The two-dimensional generalization of the P4 equation are obtained.Comment: 20 page
