Abstract

In the paper we discuss the Bäcklund transformation of the KdV equation between solitons and solitons, between negatons and negatons, between positons and positons, between rational solution and rational solution, and between complexitons and complexitons. We investigate the conditions that Wronskian entries satisfy for the bilinear Bäcklund transformation of the KdV equation. By choosing suitable Wronskian entries and the parameter in the bilinear Bäcklund transformation, we obtain transformations between many kinds of solutions.

Existence Conditions for Darboux Curves and Analytic First Integrals of a Liénard-Type Quadratic Vector Field

We study the rational quadratic differential equation \[ \frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = \frac{ay^2+by+cx}{y^2}, \qquad a,b,c\in\C, \] under the non-degeneracy assumptions \[ c\neq 0,\qquad 2ay+b\not\equiv 0. \] Equivalently, after clearing the denominator, we consider the polynomial vector field \[ \dot{x}=y^2,\qquad \dot{y}=ay^2+by+cx. \] We give a complete, directly checkable classification of its Darboux curves. If $a=0$, no non-constant Darboux polynomial exists. If $a\neq 0$, a non-constant Darboux polynomial exists if and only if \[ c=-ab\qquad\text{or}\qquad c=-2ab. \] In these two cases the unique irreducible Darboux polynomials, up to non-zero constant multiples, are respectively \[ y-ax,\qquad y^2-2bx. \] Consequently every non-constant Darboux polynomial is a non-zero constant multiple of a positive integral power of the corresponding irreducible factor. We then place this classification in the framework of Riccati (R-)integrability and rational potentials, and formulate the analytic integrability theorem asserting that a global Riccati-type analytic first integral occurs precisely on the branch $c=-ab$. Finally, we relate this branch to the Quartic Inverse Riccati (QIR) class and discuss an invariant-based classification problem for quartic Abel equations.

Multivariable Painleve'-II equation: connection formulas for arbitrary system size

Connection formulas for the asymptotic solutions of a system of n> 1 coupled Painleve'-II equations with symmetry-breaking parameters are written explicitly. An asymptotically exact WKB approach to these formulas relies on the quantum-mechanical independent crossing approximation for an explicitly time-dependent Schroedinger equation.
