On Discrete 3-Dimensional Equations Associated with the Local Yang-Baxter Relation

Abstract

The local Yang-Baxter equation (YBE), introduced by Maillet and Nijhoff, is a proper generalization to 3 dimensions of the zero curvature relation. Recently, Korepanov has constructed an infinite set of integrable 3-dimensional lattice models, and has related them to solutions to the local YBE. The simplest Korepanov's model is related to the star-triangle relation in the Ising model. In this paper the corresponding discrete equation is derived. In the continuous limit it leads to a differential 3d equation, which is symmetric with respect to all permutations of the three coordinates. A similar analysis of the star-triangle transformation in electric networks leads to the discrete bilinear equation of Miwa, associated with the BKP hierarchy. Some related operator solutions to the tetrahedron equation are also constructed.

The averaging of non-local Hamiltonian structures in Whitham's method

We consider the $m$-phase Whitham's averaging method and propose a procedure of "averaging" of non-local Hamiltonian structures. The procedure is based on the existence of a sufficient number of local commuting integrals of a system and gives a Poisson bracket of Ferapontov type for the Whitham's system. The method can be considered as a generalization of the Dubrovin-Novikov procedure for the local field-theoretical brackets.

On two aspects of the Painleve analysis

We use the Calogero equation to illustrate the following two aspects of the Painleve analysis of nonlinear PDEs. First, if a nonlinear equation passes the Painleve test for integrability, the singular expansions of its solutions around characteristic hypersurfaces can be neither single-valued functions of independent variables nor single-valued functionals of data. Second, if the truncation of singular expansions of solutions is consistent, the truncation not necessarily leads to the simplest, or elementary, auto-Backlund transformation related to the Lax pair.

The tetrahedral analog of Veneziano amplitude

In solv-int/9812016 it was shown that the Veneziano amplitude in string theory comes naturally from one of the simplest solutions of the functional pentagon equation (FPE). More generally, FPE is intimately connected with the duality condition for scattering processes. Here I find the amplitude that comes the same way from a solution of the functional tetrahedron equation, with the duality replaced by the local Yang - Baxter equation.
