1. A hierarchy of long wave-short wave type equations: quasi-periodic behavior of solutions and their representation
Xianguo Geng, Yunyun Zhai, Bo Xue, Jiao Wei
Pages: 1 - 23
Based on the Lenard recursion relation and the zero-curvature equation, we derive a hierarchy of long wave-short wave type equations associated with the 3 × 3 matrix spectral problem with three potentials. Resorting to the characteristic polynomial of the Lax matrix, a trigonal curve is defined, on which...

2. The Hankel determinant associated with a singularly perturbed Laguerre unitary ensemble
Shulin Lyu, James Griffin, Yang Chen
Pages: 24 - 53
We are concerned with the probability that all the eigenvalues of a unitary ensemble with the weight function w(x,t)=xαe−x−tx, x ∈ [0, ∞), α > −1, t ≥ 0, are greater than s. This probability is expressed as the quotient of Dn(s, t) and its value at s = 0, where Dn(s, t) denotes the determinant of...

3. Solving the constrained modified KP hierarchy by gauge transformations
Huizhan Chen, Lumin Geng, Na Li, Jipeng Cheng
Pages: 54 - 68
In this paper, we mainly investigate two kinds of gauge transformations for the constrained modified KP hierarchy in Kupershmidt-Kiso version. The corresponding gauge transformations are required to keep not only the Lax equation but also the Lax operator. For this, by selecting the special generating...

4. On μ-symmetries, μ-reductions, and μ-conservation laws of Gardner equation
Özlem Orhan, Özer Teoman
Pages: 69 - 90
In this study, we represent an application of the geometrical characterization of μ-prolongations of vector fields to the nonlinear partial differential Gardner equation with variable coefficients. First, μ-symmetries and the corresponding μ-symmetry classification are investigated and then μ-reduction...

5. A 3-Lie algebra and the dKP Hierarchy
Min-Ru Chen, Ying Chen, Zhao-Wen Yan, Jian-Qin Mei, Xiao-Li Wang
Pages: 91 - 97
In terms of a 3-Lie algebra and the classical Poisson bracket {Bn,L} of the dKP hierarchy, a special 3-bracket {Bm,Bn,L} is proposed. When m = 0 or m = 1, the 3-lax equation ∂L∂t={Bm,Bn,L} is the dKP hierarchy and the corresponding proof is given. Meanwhile, for the generalized case (m,n), the generalized...

6. On a canonical nine-body problem. Integrable Ermakov decomposition via reciprocal transformations
Colin Rogers
Pages: 98 - 106
Here, a recently introduced nine-body problem is shown to be decomposable via a novel class of reciprocal transformations into a set of integrable Ermakov systems. This Ermakov decomposition is exploited to construct more general integrable nine-body systems in which the canonical nine-body system is...

7. Rational solutions to Q3δ in the Adler-Bobenko-Suris list and degenerations
Song-lin Zhao, Da-jun Zhang
Pages: 107 - 132
We derive rational solutions in Casoratian form for the Nijhoff-Quispel-Capel (NQC) equation by using the lattice potential Korteweg-de Vries (lpKdV) equation and two Miura transformations between the lpKdV and the lattice potential modified KdV (lpmKdV) and the NQC equation. This allows us to present...

8. Exact Pollard-like internal water waves
Mateusz Kluczek
Pages: 133 - 146
In this paper we construct a new solution which represents Pollard-like three-dimensional nonlinear geophysical internal water waves. The Pollard-like solution includes the effects of the rotation of Earth and describes the internal water wave which exists at all latitudes across Earth and propagates...

9. Time-independent Hamiltonians describing systems with friction: the “cyclotron with friction”
Francesco Calogero, François Leyvraz
Pages: 147 - 154
As is well-known, any ordinary differential equation in one dimension can be cast as the Euler–Lagrange equation of an appropriate Lagrangian. Additionally, if the initial equation is autonomous, the Lagrangian can always be chosen to be time-independent. In two dimensions, however, the situation is...

10. Inverse scattering on the half-line for generalized ZS-AKNS system with general boundary conditions
Mansur I. Ismailov, Bulent Yilmaz
Pages: 155 - 167
The inverse scattering problem for a first order system of three equations on the half-line with nonsingular diagonal matrix multiplying the derivative and general boundary conditions is considered. It is focused the case of two repeated diagonal elements of diagonal matrix. The scattering matrix on...
