Soliton equations: admitted solutions and invariances via B\"acklund transformations

A couple of applications of B\"acklund transformations in the study of nonlinear evolution equations is here given. Specifically, we are concerned about third order nonlinear evolution equations. Our attention is focussed on one side, on proving a new invariance admitted by a third order nonlinear evolution equation and, on the other one, on the construction of solutions. Indeed, via B\"acklund transformations, a {\it B\"acklund chart}, connecting Abelian as well as non Abelian equations can be constructed. The importance of such a net of links is twofold since it indicates invariances as well as allows to construct solutions admitted by the nonlinear evolution equations it relates. The present study refers to third order nonlinear evolution equations of KdV type. On the basis of the Abelian wide B\"acklund chart which connects various different third order nonlinear evolution equations an invariance admitted by the {\it Korteweg-deVries interacting soliton} (int.sol.KdV) equation is obtained and a related new explicit solution is constructed. Then, the corresponding non-Abelian {\it B\"acklund chart}, shows how to construct matrix solutions of the mKdV equations: some recently obtained solutions are reconsidered.

B\"acklund transformations: a tool to study Abelian and non-Abelian nonlinear evolution equations

The KdV eigenfunction equation is considered: some explicit solutions are constructed. These, to the best of the authors' knowledge, new solutions represent an example of the powerfulness of the method devised. Specifically, B\"acklund transformation are applied to reveal algebraic properties enjoyed by nonlinear evolution equations they connect. Indeed, B\"acklund transformations, well known to represent a key tool in the study of nonlinear evolution equations, are shown to allow the construction of a net of nonlinear links, termed "B\"acklund chart", connecting Abelian as well as non Abelian equations. The present study concerns third order nonlinear evolution equations which are all connected to the KdV equation. In particular, the Abelian wide B\"acklund chart connecting these nonlinear evolution equations is recalled. Then, the links, originally established in the case of Abelian equations, are shown to conserve their validity when non Abelian counterparts are considered. In addition, the non-commutative case reveals a richer structure related to the multiplicity of non-Abelian equations which correspond to the same Abelian one. Reduction from the nc to the commutative case allow to show the connection of the KdV equation with KdV eigenfunction equation, in the "scalar" case. Finally, recently obtained matrix solutions of the mKdV equations are recalled.

Construction of soliton solutions of the matrix modified Korteweg-de Vries equation

An explicit solution formula for the matrix modified KdV equation is presented, which comprises the solutions given in Ref. 7 (S. Carillo, M. Lo Schiavo, and C. Schiebold. Matrix solitons solutions of the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation. In: Nonlinear Dynamics of Structures, Systems and Devices, edited by W. Lacarbonara, B. Balachandran, J. Ma, J. Tenreiro Machado, G. Stepan (Springer, Cham, 2020), pp. 75-83). In fact, the solutions in Ref.7 are part of a subclass studied in detail by the authors in a forthcoming publication. Here several solutions beyond this subclass are constructed and discussed with respect to qualitative properties.

Matrix solitons solutions of the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation

Nonlinear non-Abelian Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) and modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equations and their links via Baecklund transformations are considered. The focus is on the construction of soliton solutions admitted by matrix modified Korteweg-de Vries equations. Matrix equation can be viewed as a specialisation of operator equations in the finite dimensional case when operators are finite dimensional and, hence, admit a matrix representation. Baecklund transformations allow to reveal structural properties [S. Carillo and C. Schiebold, J. Math. Phys. 50 (2009), 073510] enjoyed by non-commutative KdV- type equations, such as the existence of a recursion operator. Operator methods are briefly recalled aiming to show how they can be applied to construct soliton solutions. These methods, combined with Baecklund transformations, allow to obtain solutions of matrix soliton equations. Explicit solution formulae previously constructed [C. Schiebold, Glasgow Math. J. 51, 147-155 (2009)], [S. Carillo and C. Schiebold, J. Math. Phys. 52 (2011), 053507] are used to obtain 2 x 2 and 3 x 3 matrix mKdV solutions. Some of these matrix solutions are visualised to show the solitonic behaviour they exhibit

Abelian versus non-Abelian Baecklund Charts: some remarks

Connections via Baecklund transformations among different non-linear evolution equations are investigated aiming to compare corresponding Abelian and non Abelian results. Specifically, links, via Baecklund transformations, connecting Burgers and KdV-type hierarchies of nonlinear evolution equations are studied. Crucial differences as well as notable similarities between Baecklund charts in the case of the Burgers - heat equation, on one side and KdV -type equations are considered. The Baecklund charts constructed in [16] and [17], respectively, to connect Burgers and KdV-type hierarchies of operator nonlinear evolution equations show that the structures, in the non-commutative cases, are richer than the corresponding commutative ones.

A novel noncommutative KdV-type equation, its recursion operator, and solitons

A noncommutative KdV-type equation is introduced extending the Baecklund chart in [S. Carillo, M. Lo Schiavo, and C. Schiebold, SIGMA 12 (2016)]. This equation, called meta-mKdV here, is linked by Cole-Hopf transformations to the two noncommutative versions of the mKdV equations listed in [P.J. Olver and V.V. Sokolov Commun. Math. Phys. 193 (1998), Theorem 3.6]. For this meta-mKdV, and its mirror counterpart, recursion operators, hierarchies and an explicit solution class are derived.

Bäcklund Transformations and Non-Abelian Nonlinear Evolution Equations: a Novel Bäcklund Chart

Classes of third order non-Abelian evolution equations linked to that of Korteweg-de Vries-type are investigated and their connections represented in a non-commutative Bäcklund chart, generalizing results in [Fuchssteiner B., Carillo S., Phys. A 154 (1989), 467-510]. The recursion operators are shown to be hereditary, thereby allowing the results to be extended to hierarchies. The present study is devoted to operator nonlinear evolution equations: general results are presented. The implied applications referring to finite-dimensional cases will be considered separately.

Recursion Operators admitted by non-Abelian Burgers equations: Some Remarks

The recursion operators admitted by different operator Burgers equations, in the framework of the study of nonlinear evolution equations, are here con- sidered. Specifically, evolution equations wherein the unknown is an operator acting on a Banach space are investigated. Here, the mirror non-Abelian Burgers equation is considered: it can be written as $r_t = r_{xx} + 2r_x r$. The structural properties of the admitted recursion operator are studied; thus, it is proved to be a strong symmetry for the mirror non-Abelian Burgers equation as well as to be the hereditary. These results are proved via direct computations as well as via computer assisted manipulations; ad hoc routines are needed to treat non-Abelian quantities and relations among them. The obtained recursion operator generates the $mirror$ non-Abelian Burgers hierarchy. The latter, when the unknown operator $r$ is replaced by a real valued function reduces to the usual (commutative) Burgers hierarchy. Accordingly, also the recursion operator reduces to the usual Burgers one.
