Separation of Variables in the Classical Integrable SL(3) Magnetic Chain
There are two fundamental problems studied by the theory of hamiltonian
integrable systems: integration of equations of motion, and construction of
action-angle variables. The third problem, however, should be added to the
list: separation of variables. Though much simpler than two others, it has
important relations to the quantum integrability. Separation of variables is
constructed for the magnetic chain --- an example of integrable model
associated to a nonhyperelliptic algebraic curve.Comment: 13 page
Dual Isomonodromic Deformations and Moment Maps to Loop Algebras
The Hamiltonian structure of the monodromy preserving deformation equations
of Jimbo {\it et al } is explained in terms of parameter dependent pairs of
moment maps from a symplectic vector space to the dual spaces of two different
loop algebras. The nonautonomous Hamiltonian systems generating the
deformations are obtained by pulling back spectral invariants on Poisson
subspaces consisting of elements that are rational in the loop parameter and
identifying the deformation parameters with those determining the moment maps.
This construction is shown to lead to ``dual'' pairs of matrix differential
operators whose monodromy is preserved under the same family of deformations.
As illustrative examples, involving discrete and continuous reductions, a
higher rank generalization of the Hamiltonian equations governing the
correlation functions for an impenetrable Bose gas is obtained, as well as dual
pairs of isomonodromy representations for the equations of the Painleve
transcendents and .Comment: preprint CRM-1844 (1993), 28 pgs. (Corrected date and abstract.
New Formula for the Eigenvectors of the Gaudin Model in the sl(3) Case
We propose new formulas for eigenvectors of the Gaudin model in the \sl(3)
case. The central point of the construction is the explicit form of some
operator P, which is used for derivation of eigenvalues given by the formula , where , fulfil

Generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov Reductions and KdV Type Hierarchies
Generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov (DS) hierarchies are constructed through local
reductions of Hamiltonian flows generated by monodromy invariants on the dual
of a loop algebra. Following earlier work of De Groot et al, reductions based
upon graded regular elements of arbitrary Heisenberg subalgebras are
considered. We show that, in the case of the nontwisted loop algebra
, graded regular elements exist only in those Heisenberg
subalgebras which correspond either to the partitions of into the sum of
equal numbers or to equal numbers plus one . We prove that the
reduction belonging to the grade regular elements in the case yields
the matrix version of the Gelfand-Dickey -KdV hierarchy,
generalizing the scalar case considered by DS. The methods of DS are
utilized throughout the analysis, but formulating the reduction entirely within
the Hamiltonian framework provided by the classical r-matrix approach leads to
some simplifications even for .Comment: 43 page
On integrability of Hirota-Kimura type discretizations
We give an overview of the integrability of the Hirota-Kimura discretization
method applied to algebraically completely integrable (a.c.i.) systems with
quadratic vector fields. Along with the description of the basic mechanism of
integrability (Hirota-Kimura bases), we provide the reader with a fairly
complete list of the currently available results for concrete a.c.i. systems.Comment: 47 pages, some minor change
Extensions of the matrix Gelfand-Dickey hierarchy from generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction
The matrix version of the -KdV hierarchy has been recently
treated as the reduced system arising in a Drinfeld-Sokolov type Hamiltonian
symmetry reduction applied to a Poisson submanifold in the dual of the Lie
algebra . Here a
series of extensions of this matrix Gelfand-Dickey system is derived by means
of a generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction defined for the Lie algebra
using the natural
embedding for any positive integer. The
hierarchies obtained admit a description in terms of a matrix
pseudo-differential operator comprising an -KdV type positive part and a
non-trivial negative part. This system has been investigated previously in the
case as a constrained KP system. In this paper the previous results are
considerably extended and a systematic study is presented on the basis of the
Drinfeld-Sokolov approach that has the advantage that it leads to local Poisson
brackets and makes clear the conformal (-algebra) structures related to
the KdV type hierarchies. Discrete reductions and modified versions of the
extended -KdV hierarchies are also discussed.Comment: 60 pages, plain TE
Systems of Hess-Appel'rot type
We construct higher-dimensional generalizations of the classical
Hess-Appel'rot rigid body system. We give a Lax pair with a spectral parameter
leading to an algebro-geometric integration of this new class of systems, which
is closely related to the integration of the Lagrange bitop performed by us
recently and uses Mumford relation for theta divisors of double unramified
coverings. Based on the basic properties satisfied by such a class of systems
related to bi-Poisson structure, quasi-homogeneity, and conditions on the
Kowalevski exponents, we suggest an axiomatic approach leading to what we call
the "class of systems of Hess-Appel'rot type".Comment: 40 pages. Comm. Math. Phys. (to appear
Quantum and Classical Integrable Systems
The key concept discussed in these lectures is the relation between the
Hamiltonians of a quantum integrable system and the Casimir elements in the
underlying hidden symmetry algebra. (In typical applications the latter is
either the universal enveloping algebra of an affine Lie algebra, or its
q-deformation.) A similar relation also holds in the classical case. We discuss
different guises of this very important relation and its implication for the
description of the spectrum and the eigenfunctions of the quantum system.
Parallels between the classical and the quantum cases are thoroughly discussed.Comment: 59 pages, LaTeX2.09 with AMS symbols. Lectures at the CIMPA Winter

The classical R-matrix of AdS/CFT and its Lie dialgebra structure
The classical integrable structure of Z_4-graded supercoset sigma-models,
arising in the AdS/CFT correspondence, is formulated within the R-matrix
approach. The central object in this construction is the standard R-matrix of
the Z_4-twisted loop algebra. However, in order to correctly describe the Lax
matrix within this formalism, the standard inner product on this twisted loop
algebra requires a further twist induced by the Zhukovsky map, which also plays
a key role in the AdS/CFT correspondence. The non-ultralocality of the
sigma-model can be understood as stemming from this latter twist since it leads
to a non skew-symmetric R-matrix.Comment: 22 pages, 2 figure
