1. Liouvillian Integrability of a Modified Michaelis-Menten Equation
Claudia Valls
Pages: 1 - 8
In this work we consider the modified Michaelis-Menten equation in biochemistry
x˙=-a(E-y)x+by, y˙=a(E-y)x-(b+r)y, z˙=ry.
It models the enzyme kinetics. We contribute to the understanding of its global dynamics, or more precisely, to the topological structure of its orbits by studying the integrability...

2. Convergence to the Time Average by Stochastic Regularization
Olga Bernardi, Franco Cardin, Massimiliano Guzzo
Pages: 9 - 27
In Ergodic Theory it is natural to consider the pointwise convergence of finite time averages of functions with respect to the flow of dynamical systems. Since the pointwise convergence is too weak for applications to Hamiltonian Perturbation Theory, requiring differentiability, we first introduce regularized...

3. Nonlinear Self-Adjointness and Conservation Laws for the Hyperbolic Geometric Flow Equation
Kênio A. A. Silva
Pages: 28 - 43
We study the nonlinear self-adjointness of a class of quasilinear 2D second order evolution equations by applying the method of Ibragimov. Which enables one to establish the conservation laws for any differential equation. We first obtain conditions determining the self-adjointness for a sub-class in...

4. Nonclassical Symmetries for a Class of Reaction-Diffusion Equations: the Method of Heir-Equations
M.S. Hashemi, M.C. Nucci
Pages: 44 - 60
The nonclassical symmetries method is applied to a class of reaction-diffusion equations with nonlinear source, i.e. ut=uxx+cux+R(u, x). Several cases are obtained by using suitable solutions of the heir-equations as described in [M.C. Nucci, Nonclassical symmetries as special solutions of heir-equations,...

5. Quasi-Periodic Solutions of Coupled KDV Type Equations
Bo Xue, Fang Li, Xianguo Geng
Pages: 61 - 77
A hierarchy of new nonlinear evolution equations is proposed, which are composed of the positive and negative coupled KdV flows. Based on the theory of algebraic curve, the corresponding flows are straightened under the Abel-Jacobi coordinates. The meromorphic function ϕ, the Baker-Akhiezer vector

6. Method of Generating N-dimensional Isochronous Nonsingular Hamiltonian Systems
A. Durga Devi, R. Gladwin Pradeep, V.K. Chandrasekar, M. Lakshmanan
Pages: 78 - 93
In this paper we develop a straightforward procedure to construct higher dimensional isochronous Hamiltonian systems. We first show that a class of singular Hamiltonian systems obtained through the Ω-modified procedure is equivalent to constrained Newtonian systems. Even though such systems admit isochronous...

7. Bäcklund Transformation, Lax Pair and Solitons of the (2+1)-dimensional Davey-Stewartson-like Equations with Variable Coefficients for the Electrostatic Wave Packets
Hui-Ping Zhou, Bo Tian, Hui-Xia Mo, Min Li, Pan Wang
Pages: 94 - 105
The (2+1)-dimensional Davey-Stewartson-like equations with variable coefficients have the applications in the ultra-relativistic degenerate dense plasmas and Bose-Einstein condensates. Via the Bell polynomials and symbolic computation, the bilinear form, Bäcklund transformation and Lax pair for such...

8. On the Discretization of the Coupled Integrable Dispersionless Equations
Luc Vinet, Guo-Fu Yu
Pages: 106 - 125
We study the integrable discretization of the coupled integrable dispersionless equations. Two semi-discrete version and one full-discrete version of the system are given via Hirota's bilinear method. Soliton solutions for the derived discrete systems are also presented.

9. Bi-Hamiltonian Structure of a Three-Component Camassa-Holm Type Equation
Nianhua Li, Q.P. Liu
Pages: 126 - 134
A recently proposed three-component Camassa-Holm equation is considered. It is shown that this system is a bi-Hamiltonian system.

10. The Modified Korteweg-de Vries Equation on the Half-Line with a Sine-Wave as Dirichlet Datum
Guenbo Hwang, A. S. Fokas
Pages: 135 - 157
Boundary value problems for integrable nonlinear evolution PDEs, like the modified KdV equation, formulated on the half-line can be analyzed by the so-called unified transform method. For the modified KdV equation, this method yields the solution in terms of the solution of a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem...

11. Diophantine Properties Associated to the Equilibrium Configurations of an Isochronous N-Body Problem
Oksana Bihun, Francesco Calogero, Ge Yi
Pages: 158 - 178
Recently a solvable N-body problem featuring several free parameters has been investigated, and conditions on these parameters have been identified which guarantee that this system is isochronous (all its solutions are periodic with a fixed period) and that it possesses equilibria. The N coordinates...
