Bäcklund Transformations for Nonlinear Differential Equations and Systems

In this work, new Bäcklund transformations (BTs) for generalized Liouville equations were obtained. Special cases of Liouville equations with exponential nonlinearity that have a multiplier that depends on the independent variables and first-order derivatives from the function were considered. Two- and three-dimensional cases were considered. The BTs construction is based on the method proposed by Clairin. The solutions of the considered equations have been found using the BTs, with a unified algorithm. In addition, the work develops the Clairin’s method for the system of two third-order equations related to the integrable perturbation and complexification of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. Among the constructed BTs an analog of the Miura transformations was found. The Miura transformations transfer the initial system to that of perturbed modified KdV (mKdV) equations. It could be shown on this way that, considering the system as a link between the real and imaginary parts of a complex function, it is possible to go to the complexified KdV (cKdV) and here the analog of the Miura transformations transforms it into the complexification of the mKdV.

The squared eigenfunction symmetries of the discrete KP and modified discrete KP hierarchies under the Miura transformations

In this paper, we investigate the squared eigenfunction symmetries under the Miura and reverse-Miura transformations, between the discrete KP and modified discrete KP hierarchies, in unconstrained and constrained cases. What is more, the squared eigenfunction symmetries for the constrained discrete KP and constrained modified discrete KP hierarchies are constructed by imposing the additional conditions on the generating eigenfunctions of the corresponding symmetries.

On integrable conservation laws

We study normal forms of scalar integrable dispersive (not necessarily Hamiltonian) conservation laws, via the Dubrovin–Zhang perturbative scheme. Our computations support the conjecture that such normal forms are parametrized by infinitely many arbitrary functions that can be identified with the coefficients of the quasi-linear part of the equation. Moreover, in general, we conjecture that two scalar integrable evolutionary partial differential equations having the same quasi-linear part are Miura equivalent. This conjecture is also consistent with the tensorial behaviour of these coefficients under general Miura transformations.

On some new forms of lattice integrable equations

Inspired by the forms of delay-Painleve equations, we consider some new differential-discrete systems of KdV, mKdV and Sine-Gordon — type related by simple one way Miura transformations to classical ones. Using Hirota bilinear formalism we construct their new integrable discretizations, some of them having higher order. In particular, by this procedure, we show that the integrable discretization of intermediate sine-Gordon equation is exactly lattice mKdV and also we find a bilinear form of the recently proposed lattice Tzitzeica equation. Also the travelling wave reduction of these new lattice equations is studied and it is shown that all of them, including the higher order ones, can be integrated to Quispel-Roberts-Thomson (QRT) mappings.

VARIABLE-COEFFICIENT MIURA TRANSFORMATIONS AND INTEGRABLE PROPERTIES FOR A GENERALIZED VARIABLE-COEFFICIENT KORTEWEG–de VRIES EQUATION FROM BOSE–EINSTEIN CONDENSATES WITH SYMBOLIC COMPUTATION

In this paper, a generalized variable-coefficient Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation with the dissipative and/or perturbed/external-force terms is investigated, which arises in arterial mechanics, blood vessels, Bose gases of impenetrable bosons and trapped Bose–Einstein condensates. With the computerized symbolic computation, two variable-coefficient Miura transformations are constructed from such a model to the modified KdV equation under the corresponding constraints on the coefficient functions. Meanwhile, through these two transformations, a couple of auto-Bäcklund transformations, nonlinear superposition formulas and Lax pairs are obtained with the relevant constraints. Furthermore, the one- and two-solitonic solutions of this equation are explicitly presented and the physical properties and possible applications in some fields of these solitonic structures are discussed and pointed out.
