Global Results on the Classification of Two-Component Integrable Evolutionary Systems

We derive necessary and sufficient integrability conditions for two-component polynomial evolutionary systems of odd order in $(1+1)$ dimensions. Integrable systems are members of infinite hierarchies of commuting symmetries, which are characterised by their spectral invariants. We prove that there are precisely $24$ possible spectral classes of integrable hierarchies. As an application, we obtain a complete classification of integrable homogeneous hierarchies whose lowest-order equations are of order 3 and 5. The resulting classification naturally splits into two classes. The C--integrable systems are reduced, by means of differential substitutions, to linear--triangular form, while the S--integrable systems are related, through linear changes of variables and differential substitutions, to canonical Drinfeld--Sokolov KdV-type systems associated with affine Lie algebras of rank two.

Algebraic quantisation approach to integrable differential-difference equations

We develop an algebraic quantisation approach, based on quantisation ideals, and apply it to integrable non-Abelian differential--difference equations. We show that the Toda hierarchy admits a bi-quantum structure whose classical (commutative) limit recovers a well-known Poisson pencil. In addition, we discover a non-standard quantisation that has no commutative counterpart. In both cases we present the quantum systems in the Heisenberg form. The generality of the method is illustrated through a wide range of integrable lattices, including the modified Volterra, Bogoyavlensky, Ablowitz-Ladik, relativistic Toda, Merola-Ragnisco-Tu, Adler-Yamilov, Chen-Lee-Liu, Belov-Chaltikian, and Blaszak-Marciniak systems. For each of them, we construct explicit quantisation ideals and present the first few commuting quantum Hamiltonians.

Darboux transformations and related non-Abelian integrable differential-difference systems of the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger type

We construct linear and quadratic Darboux matrices compatible with the reduction group of the Lax operator for each of the seven known non-Abelian derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equations that admit Lax representations. The differential-difference systems derived from these Darboux transformations generalise established non-Abelian integrable models by incorporating non-commutative constants. Specifically, we demonstrate that linear Darboux transformations generate non-Abelian Volterra-type equations, while quadratic transformations yield two-component systems, including non-Abelian versions of the Ablowitz-Ladik, Merola-Ragnisco-Tu, and relativistic Toda equations. Using quasideterminants, we establish necessary conditions for factorising a higher-degree polynomial Darboux matrix with a specific linear Darboux matrix as a factor. This result enables the factorisation of quadratic Darboux matrices into pairs of linear Darboux matrices.

Integrability of Nonabelian Differential-Difference Equations: the Symmetry Approach

We propose a novel approach to tackle integrability problem for evolutionary differential-difference equations (D$Δ$Es) on free associative algebras, also referred to as nonabelian D$Δ$Es. This approach enables us to derive necessary integrability conditions, determine the integrability of a given equation, and make progress in the classification of integrable nonabelian D$Δ$Es. This work involves establishing symbolic representations for the nonabelian difference algebra, difference operators, and formal series, as well as introducing a novel quasi-local extension for the algebra of formal series within the context of symbolic representations. Applying this formalism, we solve the classification problem of integrable skew-symmetric quasi-linear nonabelian equations of orders $(-1,1)$, $(-2,2)$, and $(-3,3)$, consequently revealing some new equations in the process.

Hamiltonian and recursion operators for a discrete analogue of the Kaup-Kupershmidt equation

In this paper we study the algebraic properties of a new integrable differential-difference equation. This equation can be seen as a deformation of the modified Narita-Itoh-Bogoyavlensky equation and has the Kaup-Kupershmidt equation in its continuous limit. Using its Lax representation we explicitly construct a recursion operator for this equation and prove that it is a Nijenhuis operator. Moreover, we present the bi-Hamiltonian structures for this new equation.

Hamiltonians for the quantised Volterra hierarchy

This paper builds upon our recent work, published in Lett. Math. Phys., 112: 94, 2022, where we established that the integrable Volterra lattice on a free associative algebra and the whole hierarchy of its symmetries admits a quantisation dependent on a parameter $ω$. We also uncovered an intriguing aspect: all odd-degree symmetries of the hierarchy admits an alternative, non-deformation quantisation, resulting in a non-commutative algebra for any choice of the quantisation parameter $ω$. In this study, we demonstrate that each equation within the quantum Volterra hierarchy can be expressed in the Heisenberg form. We provide explicit expressions for all quantum Hamiltonians and establish their commutativity. In the classical limit, these quantum Hamiltonians yield explicit expressions for the classical ones of the commutative Volterra hierarchy. Furthermore, we present Heisenberg equations and their Hamiltonians in the case of non-deformation quantisation. Finally, we discuss commuting first integrals, central elements of the quantum algebra, and the integrability problem for periodic reductions of the Volterra lattice in the context of both quantisations.

Quantisations of the Volterra hierarchy

In this paper we explore a recently emerged approach to the problem of quantisation based on the notion of quantisation ideals. We explicitly prove that the nonabelian Volterra together with the whole hierarchy of its symmetries admit a deformation quantisation. We show that all odd-degree symmetries of the Volterra hierarchy admit also a non-deformation quantisation. We discuss the quantisation problem for periodic Volterra hierarchy including their quantum Hamiltonians, central elements of the quantised algebras, and demonstrate super-integrability of the quantum systems obtained. We show that the Volterra system with period $3$ admits a bi-quantum structure, which can be regarded as a quantum deformation of its classical bi-Hamiltonian structure.

Hamiltonian structures for integrable nonabelian difference equations

In this paper we extensively study the notion of Hamiltonian structure for nonabelian differential-difference systems, exploring the link between the different algebraic (in terms of double Poisson algebras and vertex algebras) and geometric (in terms of nonabelian Poisson bivectors) definitions. We introduce multiplicative double Poisson vertex algebras (PVAs) as the suitable noncommutative counterpart to multiplicative PVAs, used to describe Hamiltonian differential-difference equations in the commutative setting, and prove that these algebras are in one-to-one correspondence with the Poisson structures defined by difference operators, providing a sufficient condition for the fulfilment of the Jacobi identity. Moreover, we define nonabelian polyvector fields and their Schouten brackets, for both finitely generated noncommutative algebras and infinitely generated difference ones: this allows us to provide a unified characterisation of Poisson bivectors and double quasi-Poisson algebra structures. Finally, as an application we obtain some results towards the classification of local scalar Hamiltonian difference structures and construct the Hamiltonian structures for the nonabelian Kaup, Ablowitz-Ladik and Chen-Lee-Liu integrable lattices.

Recursion and Hamiltonian operators for integrable nonabelian difference equations

In this paper, we carry out the algebraic study of integrable differential-difference equations whose field variables take values in an associative (but not commutative) algebra. We adapt the Hamiltonian formalism to nonabelian difference Laurent polynomials and describe how to obtain a recursion operator from the Lax representation of an integrable nonabelian differential-difference system. As an application, we propose a novel family of integrable equations: the nonabelian Narita-Itoh-Bogoyavlensky lattice, for which we construct their recursion operators and Hamiltonian operators and prove the locality of infinitely many commuting symmetries generated from their highly nonlocal recursion operators. Finally, we discuss the nonabelian version of several integrable difference systems, including the relativistic Toda chain and Ablowitz-Ladik lattice.

A Darboux-Getzler theorem for scalar difference Hamiltonian operators

In this paper we extend to the difference case the notion of Poisson-Lichnerowicz cohomology, an object encapsulating the building blocks for the theory of deformations of Hamiltonian operators. A local scalar difference Hamiltonian operator is a polynomial in the shift operator and its inverse, with coefficients in the algebra of difference functions, endowing the space of local functionals with the structure of a Lie algebra. Its Poisson-Lichnerowicz cohomology carries the information about the center, the symmetries and the admissible deformations of such algebra. The analogue notion for the differential case has been widely investigated: the first and most important result is the triviality of all but the lowest cohomology for first order Hamiltonian differential operators, due to Getzler arXiv:math/0002164 . We study the Poisson-Lichnerowicz cohomology for the operator $K_0 = \mathcal{S} - \mathcal{S}^{-1}$, which is the normal form for $(-1,1)$ order scalar difference Hamiltonian operators; we obtain the same result as Getzler did, namely $H^p(K_0)=0$ $\forall p > 1$, and explicitly compute $H^0(K_0)$ and $H^1(K_0)$. We then apply our main result to the classification of lower order scalar Hamiltonian operators recently obtained by De Sole, Kac, Valeri and Wakimoto arXiv:1806.05536

PreHamiltonian and Hamiltonian operators for differential-difference equations

In this paper we are developing a theory of rational (pseudo) difference Hamiltonian operators, focusing in particular on its algebraic aspects. We show that a pseudo--difference Hamiltonian operator can be represented as a ratio $AB^{-1}$ of two difference operators with coefficients from a difference field $\mathcal{F}$ where $A$ is preHamiltonian. A difference operator $A$ is called preHamiltonian if its image is a Lie subalgebra with respect to the Lie bracket of evolutionary vector fields on $\mathcal{F}$. We show that a skew-symmetric difference operator is Hamiltonian if and only if it is preHamiltonian and satisfies simply verifiable conditions on its coefficients. We show that if $H$ is a rational Hamiltonian operator, then to find a second Hamiltonian operator $K$ compatible with $H$ is the same as to find a preHamiltonian pair $A$ and $B$ such that $AB^{-1}H$ is skew-symmetric. We apply our theory to non-trivial multi-Hamiltonian structures of Narita-Itoh-Bogoyavlensky and Adler-Postnikov equations.

Rational recursion operators for integrable differential-difference equations

In this paper we introduce preHamiltonian pairs of difference operators and study their connections with Nijenhuis operators and the existence of weakly non-local inverse recursion operators for differential-difference equations. We begin with a rigorous setup of the problem in terms of the skew field $Q$ of rational (pseudo--difference) operators over a difference field $F$ with a zero characteristic subfield of constants $k\subset F$ and the principal ideal ring $M_n(Q)$ of matrix rational (pseudo-difference) operators. In particular, we give a criteria for a rational operator to be weakly non--local. A difference operator $H$ is called preHamiltonian, if its image is a Lie $k$-subalgebra with respect the the Lie bracket on $F$. Two preHamiltonian operators form a preHamiltonian pair if any $k$-linear combination of them is preHamiltonian. Then we show that a preHamiltonian pair naturally leads to a Nijenhuis operator, and a Nijenhuis operator can be represented in terms of a preHamiltonian pair. This provides a systematical method to check whether a rational operator is Nijenhuis. As an application, we construct a preHamiltonian pair and thus a Nijenhuis recursion operator for the differential-difference equation recently discovered by Adler \& Postnikov. The Nijenhuis operator obtained is not weakly non-local. We prove that it generates an infinite hierarchy of local commuting symmetries. We also illustrate our theory on the well known examples including the Toda, the Ablowitz-Ladik and the Kaup-Newell differential-difference equations.

Remarks on certain two-component systems with peakon solutions

We consider a Lax pair found by Xia, Qiao and Zhou for a family of two-component analogues of the Camassa-Holm equation, including an arbitrary function $H$, and show that this apparent freedom can be removed via a combination of a reciprocal transformation and a gauge transformation, which reduces the system to triangular form. The resulting triangular system may or may not be integrable, depending on the choice of $H$. In addition, we apply the formal series approach of Dubrovin and Zhang to show that scalar equations of Camassa-Holm type with homogeneous nonlinear terms of degree greater than three are not integrable.

Symbolic Representation and Classification of N=1 Supersymmetric Evolutionary Equations

We extend the symbolic representation to the ring of N=1 supersymmetric differential polynomials, and demonstrate that operations on the ring, such as the super derivative, Frechet derivative and super commutator, can be carried out in the symbolic way. Using the symbolic representation, we classify scalar $λ$-homogeneous N=1 supersymmetric evolutionary equations with nonzero linear term when $λ>0$ for arbitrary order and give a comprehensive description of all such integrable equations.

Dressing method for the vector sine-Gordon equation and its soliton interactions

In this paper, we develop the dressing method to study the exact solutions for the vector sine-Gordon equation. The explicit formulas for one kink and one breather are derived. The method can be used to construct multi-soliton solutions. Two soliton interactions are also studied. The formulas for position shift of the kink and position and phase shifts of the breather are given. These quantities only depend on the pole positions of the dressing matrices.

Wave fronts and cascades of soliton interactions in the periodic two dimensional Volterra system

In the paper we develop the dressing method for the solution of the two-dimensional periodic Volterra system with a period N. We derive soliton solutions of arbitrary rank $k$ and give a full classification of rank 1 solutions. We have found a new class of exact solutions corresponding to wave fronts which represent smooth interfaces between two nonlinear periodic waves or a periodic wave and a trivial (zero) solution. The wave fronts are non-stationary and they propagate with a constant average velocity. The system also has soliton solutions similar to breathers, which resembles soliton webs in the KP theory. We associate the classification of soliton solutions with the Schubert decomposition of the Grassmanians ${\rm Gr}_{\mathbb{R}}(k,N)$ and ${\rm Gr}_{\mathbb{C}}(k,N)$.

Two-component generalizations of the Camassa-Holm equation

A classification of integrable two-component systems of non-evolutionary partial differential equations that are analogous to the Camassa-Holm equation is carried out via the perturbative symmetry approach. Independently, a classification of compatible pairs of Hamiltonian operators is carried out, which leads to bi-Hamiltonian structures for the same systems of equations. Some exact solutions and Lax pairs are also constructed for the systems considered.
