Fredholm determinant solutions to the modified KP hierarchy and 2D Toda lattice: isospectral and non-isospectral reductions

Abstract

We study Fredholm determinant solutions to the first two positive and the first negative members of the modified Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (mKP) hierarchy, together with the bilinear two-dimensional Toda lattice (2DTL) equation. By applying isospectral reductions, we explicitly construct Fredholm determinant solutions for the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV), the modified Camassa-Holm, and the focusing nonlinear Schrödinger equations. Furthermore, we demonstrate that in the non-isospectral case, the reduction from the mKP and 2DTL equations to the non-isospectral negative KdV equation yields solutions characterized by the deformed Bessel determinant.

Lax Pairs: Integrable, Less Integrable and Nonintegrable Systems

Completely integrable finite dimensional Hamiltonian systems are well understood thanks to the work of Liouville and Arnold. On the other hand, the Lax Pair formulation of the KdV equation marks the beginning of the extension of the completely integrable theory to infinite dimensional Hamiltonian systems. Solutions of initial value problems for systems that admit a Lax Pair formulation normally have a tame qualitative behavior if Lax Pairs give rise to an infinite complete set of conserved laws. The situation is different for initial-boundary value problems, even in one space dimension. There are problems where integrability persists and regular (long time asymptotic) behavior can be proven (and we have proven it). There are others where even irregular "fractal-chaotic-looking" behavior can appear. In this short article we review an instance of each case. We also make a connection with results from the existing theory of perturbed Lax Pair equations on the real line.

Asymptotic behavior analysis of solutions to the Heisenberg ferromagnet equation with the Schwartz initial data

This work aims to investigate the long-time asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the Heisenberg ferromagnet equation with the Schwartz initial data. Utilizing the gauge transformations, spectral analysis and the inverse scattering method, we prove that the solutions to the Heisenberg ferromagnet equation can be expressed in terms of the solutions to a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem formulated in the complex $k$-plane. Various Deift-Zhou contour deformations and the motivation behind them are given. By applying the nonlinear steepest descent method to the associated matrix-valued Riemann-Hilbert problem, we obtain the exact leading-order asymptotic formulas and uniform error estimates for solutions to the Cauchy problem of the Heisenberg ferromagnet equation.

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.
