Quantum effects for extrinsic geometry of strings via the generalized Weierstrass representation

The generalized Weierstrass representation for surfaces in $\Bbb{R}^{3}$ is used to study quantum effects for strings governed by Polyakov-Nambu-Goto action. Correlators of primary fields are calculated exactly in one-loop approximation for the pure extrinsic Polyakov action. Geometrical meaning of infrared singularity is discussed. The Nambu-Goto and spontaneous curvature actions are treated perturbatively.

Induced surfaces and their integrable dynamics. II. Generalized Weierstrass representations in 4D spaces and deformations via DS hierarchy

Extensions of the generalized Weierstrass representation to generic surfaces in 4D Euclidean and pseudo-Euclidean spaces are given. Geometric characteristics of surfaces are calculated. It is shown that integrable deformations of such induced surfaces are generated by the Davey -Stewartson hierarchy. Geometrically these deformations are characterized by the invariance of an infinite set of functionals over surface. The Willmore functional (the total squared mean curvature) is the simplest of them. Various particular classes of surfaces and their integrable deformations are considered.

Weierstrass representations for surfaces in 4D spaces and their integrable deformations via DS hierarchy

Generalized Weierstrass representations for generic surfaces conformally immersed into four-dimensional Euclidean and pseudo-Euclidean spaces of different signatures are presented. Integrable deformations of surfaces in these spaces generated by the Davey-Stewartson hierarchy of integrable equations are proposed. Willmore functional of a surface is invariant under such deformations.

Projective generalizations of Lelieuvre's formula

Möbius invariant integrable lattice equations associated with KP and 2DTL hierarchies

Integrable lattice equations arising in the context of singular manifold equations for scalar, multicomponent KP hierarchies and 2D Toda lattice hierarchy are considered. These equation generate the corresponding continuous hierarchy of singular manifold equations, its Bäcklund transformations and different forms of superposition principles. They possess rather special form of compatibility representation. The distinctive feature of these equations is invariance under the action of Möbius transformation. Geometric interpretation of these discrete equations is given.

Surfaces of Revolution via the Schroedinger Equation : Construction, Integrable Dynamics and Visualization

Surfaces of revolution in three-dimensional Euclidean space are considered. Several new examples of surfaces of revolution associated with well-known solvable cases of the Schoedinger equation (infinite well, harmonic oscillator, Coulomb potential, Bargmann potential, etc.) are analyzed and visualized. The properties of such surfaces are discussed. Two types of deformations (evolutions), namely 1) preserving the Gaussian curvature and 2) via the dynamics of the Korteweg-de-Vries equation are discussed.

Analytic-bilinear approach to integrable hierarchies. II. Multicomponent KP and 2D Toda lattice hierarchies

Analytic-bilinear approach for construction and study of integrable hierarchies is discussed. Generalized multicomponent KP and 2D Toda lattice hierarchies are considered. This approach allows to represent generalized hierarchies of integrable equations in a condensed form of finite functional equations. Generalized hierarchy incorporates basic hierarchy, modified hierarchy, singularity manifold equation hierarchy and corresponding linear problems. Different levels of generalized hierarchy are connected via invariants of Combescure symmetry transformation. Resolution of functional equations also leads to the $τ$-function and addition formulae to it.

On equation of geodesic deviation and its solutions

Equations of geodesic deviation for the 3-dimensional and 4-dimensional Riemann spaces are discussed. Availability of wide classes of exact solutions of such equations, due to recent results for the matrix Schrödinger equation, is demonstrated. Particular classes of exact solutions for the geodesic deviation equation as well as for the Raychaudhuri and generalized Raychaudhuri equation are presented. Solutions of geodesic deviation equation for the Schwarzshild and Kasner metrics are found.

Analytic-bilinear approach to integrable hierarchies. I.Generalized KP hierarchy

Analytic-bilinear approach for construction and study of integrable hierarchies, in particular, the KP hierarchy is discussed. It is based on the generalized Hirota identity. This approach allows to represent generalized hierarchies of integrable equations in a condensed form of finite functional equations. Resolution of these functional equations leads to the $τ$-function and addition formulae to it. General discrete transformations of the $τ$-function are presented in the determinant form. Closed one-form and other formulae also arise naturally within the approach proposed. Generalized KP hierarchy written in terms of different invariants of Combescure symmetry transformations coincides with the usual KP hierarchy and the mKP hierarchy.

Generalized integrable hierarchies and Combescure symmetry transformations

Unifying hierarchies of integrable equations are discussed. They are constructed via generalized Hirota identity. It is shown that the Combescure transformations, known for a long time for the Darboux system and having a simple geometrical meaning, are in fact the symmetry transformations of generalized integrable hierarchies. Generalized equation written in terms of invariants of Combescure transformations are the usual integrable equations and their modified partners. The KP-mKP, DS-mDS hierarchies and Darboux system are considered.

Generalized Weierstrass formulae, soliton equations and Willmore surfaces. I. Tori of revolution and the mKdV equation

A new approach is proposed for study structure and properties of the total squared mean curvature $W$ of surfaces in ${\bf R}^3$. It is based on the generalized Weierstrass formulae for inducing surfaces. The quantity $W$ (Willmore functional) is shown to be invariant under the modified Novikov--Veselov hierarchy of integrable flows. The $1+1$--dimensional case and, in particular, Willmore tori of revolution, are studied in details. The Willmore conjecture is proved for the mKDV--invariant Willmore tori.

Constant mean curvature surfaces via integrable dynamical system

It is shown that the equation which describes constant mean curvature surface via the generalized Weierstrass-Enneper inducing has Hamiltonian form. Its simplest finite-dimensional reduction has two degrees of freedom, integrable and its trajectories correspond to well-known Delaunay and do Carmo-Dajzcer surfaces (i.e., helicoidal constant mean curvature surfaces).
