Semigroups and abstract Gevrey spaces

AbstractConditions are found under which a closed linear operator A in a Banach space X generates a continuous semigroup in a linear topological space Y which is dense in X. The space Y is an abstract Gevrey space associated with the operator A. This is an abstract setting for some results for hyperbolic systems with data in spaces of Gevrey functions

Action-Angle variables for the Gel'fand-Dikii flows

Using the scattering transform for $n^{th}$ order linear scalar operators, the Poisson bracket found by Gel'fand and Dikii, which generalizes the Gardner Poisson bracket for the KdV hierarchy, is computed on the scattering side. Action-angle variables are then constructed. Using this, complete integrability is demonstrated in the strong sense. Real action-angle variables are constructed in the self-adjoint case

A Dirac Sea and thermodynamic equilibrium for the quantized three-wave interaction

The classical version of the three wave interaction models the creation and destruction of waves; the quantized version models the creation and destruction of particles. The quantum three wave interaction is described and the Bethe Ansatz for the eigenfunctions is given in closed form. The Bethe equations are derived in a rigorous fashion and are shown to have a thermodynamic limit. The Dirac sea of negative energy states is obtained as the infinite density limit. Finite particle/hole excitations are determined and the asymptotic relation of energy and momentum is obtained. The Yang-Yang functional for the relative free energy of finite density excitations is constructed and is shown to be convex and bounded below. The equations of thermal equilibrium are obtained
