Paper analyzes a new Hopf-Lax semigroup in metric spaces.

We show that every Lie algebra is equipped with a natural $(1,1)$-variant tensor field, the "canonical endomorphism field", naturally determined by the Lie structure, and satisfying a certain Nijenhuis bracket condition. This observation may be considered as complementary to the Kirillov-Kostant-Souriau theorem on symp…

Relation between generalized Weierstrass representation for conformal immersion of generic surfaces into three-dimensional space and Lax-Phillips scattering theory for automorphic functions is considered.

We study a variation of Turaev's homotopy quantum field theories using 2-categories of surfaces. We define the homotopy surface 2-category of a space $X$ and define an $\cS_X$-structure to be a monoidal 2-functor from this to the 2-category of idempotent-complete additive $k$-linear categories. We initiate the study of…

New method for geodesics of multivariate normals, derived from a Toda lattice.

We present a 2x2 Lax representation for discrete circular nets of constant negative Gauß curvature. It is tightly linked to the 4D consistency of the Lax representation of discrete K-nets (in asymptotic line parametrization). The description gives rise to Bäcklund transformations and an associated family. All the membe…

We introduce a novel systematic construction for integrable (3+1)-dimensional dispersionless systems using nonisospectral Lax pairs that involve contact vector fields. In particular, we present new large classes of (3+1)-dimensional integrable dispersionless systems associated to the Lax pairs which are polynomial and …

Using the procedure initiated in \cite{Ma2013}, we deform Lax-type equations though a scaling of the time parameter. This gives an equivalent (deformed) equation which is integrable in terms of power series of the scaling parameter. We then describe a regular Frölicher Lie group of symmetries of this deformed equation

Nous montrons que les équations du repère mobile des surfaces de Bonnet conduisent à une paire de Lax matricielle isomonodromique d'ordre deux pour la sixième équation de Painlevé. We show that the moving frame equations of Bonnet surfaces can be extrapolated to a second order, isomonodromic matrix Lax pair of the sixt…

The Lax-Hopf formula simplifies the value function of an intertemporal optimization (infinite dimensional) problem associated with a convex transaction-cost function which depends only on the transactions (velocities) of a commodity evolution: it states that the value function is equal to the marginal fonction of a fin…

We prove that the existence of a dispersionless Lax pair with spectral parameter for a nondegenerate hyperbolic second order partial differential equation (PDE) is equivalent to the canonical conformal structure defined by the symbol being Einstein-Weyl on any solution in 3D, and self-dual on any solution in 4D. The fi…

Miura-type transformations (MTs) are an essential tool in the theory of integrable nonlinear partial differential and difference equations. We present a geometric method to construct MTs for differential-difference (lattice) equations from Darboux-Lax representations (DLRs) of such equations. The method is applicable t…

In the framework of the theory of differential coverings \cite{KV}, we discuss a general geometric construction that serves the base for the so-called Lax pairs containing differentiation with respect to the spectral parameter \cite{OS}. Such kind of objects arise, for example, when studying integrability properties of…

The paper connects isomonodromic and isospectral deformations for $\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb{C})$ connections.

In this paper we show that if one writes down the structure equations for the evolution of a curve embedded in an (n)-dimensional Riemannian manifold with constant curvature this leads to a symplectic, a Hamiltonian and an hereditary operator. This gives us a natural connection between finite dimensional geometry, infi…

We consider the Dirac operator on globally hyperbolic manifolds with timelike boundary and show well-posedness of the Cauchy initial-boundary value problem coupled to MIT-boundary conditions. This is achieved by transforming the problem locally into a symmetric positive hyperbolic system, proving existence and uniquene…

We review the subject of four dimensional anti-self-dual conformal structures with signature (+ + - -). Both local and global questions are discussed. Most of the material is well known in the literature and we present it in a way which underlines the connection with integrable systems. Some of the results - e.g. the L…

All anti-self-dual Einstein metrics with non-zero cosmological constant arise from a single second-order PDE.

Researchers develop Orlov-Schulman symmetries for self-dual conformal structures.

The Lax formulation of the hyper-Hermiticity condition in four dimensions is used to derive a potential that generalises Plebanski's second heavenly equation for hyper-Kahler 4-manifolds. A class of examples of hyper-Hermitian metrics which depend on two arbitrary functions of two complex variables is given. The twisto…

Integrable geodesics found on special orthogonal group.

Abstract: Extends geometric concepts to generalized tangent bundle and describes flows.

We generalize the Toda lattice hierarchy by considering N+M dependent variables. We construct roots and logarithms of the Lax operator which are uniquely defined operators with coefficients that are $ε$-series of differential polynomials in the dependent variables, and we use them to provide a Lax pair definition of th…

A general formulation of zero curvature connections in a principle bundle is presented and some applications are discussed. It is proved that a related connection based on a prolongation in an associated bundle remains zero curvature as well. It is also shown that the connection coefficients can be defined so that the …

We develop here a concept of deformed algebras through three examples and an application. Deformed algebras are obtained from a fixed algebra by deformation along a family of indexes, through formal series. We show how the example of deformed algebra used in \cite{Ma2013} is only an example among others, and how they o…

The 1-d Schrodinger flow on 2-sphere, the Gauss-Codazzi equation for flat Lagrangian submanifolds in C^n, and the space-time monopole equation are all examples of geometric soliton equations. The linear systems with a spectral parameter (Lax pair) associated to these equations satisfy the reality condition associated t…

We provide a Lax pair for the surfaces of Voss and Guichard, and we show that such particular surfaces considered by Gambier are characterized by a third Painlevé function.

The nonlinear equations for the general nonsingular pairs of compatible nonlocal Poisson brackets of hydrodynamic type are derived and the integrability of these equations by the method of inverse scattering problem is proved. For these equations, the Lax pairs with a spectral parameter are presented. Moreover, we demo…

The paper studies curve evolution using the PLR equation and its solutions.

The space-time monopole equation is obtained from a dimension reduction of the anti-self dual Yang-Mills equation on $\R^{2,2}$. A family of Ward equations is obtained by gauge fixing from the monopole equation. In this paper, we give an introduction and a survey of the space-time monopole equation. Included are altern…

We extend the Mason-Newman Lax pair for the elliptic complex Monge-Ampère equation so that this equation itself emerges as an algebraic consequence. We regard the function in the extended Lax equations as a complex potential. We identify the real and imaginary parts of the potential, which we call partner symmetries, w…

We investigate multi-dimensional Hamiltonian systems associated with constant Poisson brackets of hydrodynamic type. A complete list of two- and three-component integrable Hamiltonians is obtained. All our examples possess dispersionless Lax pairs and an infinity of hydrodynamic reductions.

A discrete analog of the Tzitzeica equation is found in the form of quad-equation. Its continuous symmetry is an inhomogeneous Narita--Bogoyavlensky type lattice equation which defines a discretization of the Sawada--Kotera equation. The integrability of these discretizations is proven by construction of the Lax repres…
