Soliton Solutions of Noncommutative Anti-Self-Dual Yang-Mills Equations

We present exact soliton solutions of anti-self-dual Yang-Mills equations for G=GL(N) on noncommutative Euclidean spaces in four-dimension by using the Darboux transformations. Generated solutions are represented by quasideterminants of Wronski matrices in compact forms. We give special one-soliton solutions for G=GL(2) whose energy density can be real-valued. We find that the soliton solutions are the same as the commutative ones and can be interpreted as one-domain walls in four-dimension. Scattering processes of the multi-soliton solutions are also discussed.

Darboux dressing and undressing for the ultradiscrete KdV equation

We solve the direct scattering problem for the ultradiscrete Korteweg de Vries (udKdV) equation, over $\mathbb R$ for any potential with compact (finite) support, by explicitly constructing bound state and non-bound state eigenfunctions. We then show how to reconstruct the potential in the scattering problem at any time, using an ultradiscrete analogue of a Darboux transformation. This is achieved by obtaining data uniquely characterising the soliton content and the `background' from the initial potential by Darboux transformation.

Linearization of the box-ball system: an elementary approach

Kuniba, Okado, Takagi and Yamada have found that the time-evolution of the Takahashi-Satsuma box-ball system can be linearized by considering rigged configurations associated with states of the box-ball system. We introduce a simple way to understand the rigged configuration of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-type, and give an elementary proof of the linearization property. Our approach can be applied to a box-ball system with finite carrier, which is related to a discrete modified KdV equation, and also to the combinatorial $R$-matrix of $A_1^{(1)}$-type. We also discuss combinatorial statistics and related fermionic formulas associated with the states of the box-ball systems. A fermionic-type formula we obtain for the finite carrier case seems to be new.

Binary Darboux Transformation for the Sasa-Satsuma Equation

The Sasa-Satsuma equation is an integrable higher-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Higher-order and multicomponent generalisations of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation are important in various applications, e.g., in optics. One of these equations is the Sasa-Satsuma equation. We present the binary Darboux transformations for the Sasa-Satsuma equation and then construct its quasigrammians solutions by iterating its binary Darboux transformations. Periodic, one-soliton, two-solitons and breather solutions are given as explicit examples.

On Darboux transformations for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation

We consider Darboux transformations for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation. A new theorem for Darboux transformations of operators with no derivative term are presented and proved. The solution is expressed in quasideterminant forms. Additionally, the parabolic and soliton solutions of the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation are given as explicit examples.

Bäcklund Transformations and the Atiyah-Ward ansatz for Noncommutative Anti-Self-Dual Yang-Mills Equations

We present Backlund transformations for the noncommutative anti-self-dual Yang-Mills equation where the gauge group is G=GL(2) and use it to generate a series of exact solutions from a simple seed solution. The solutions generated by this approach are represented in terms of quasideterminants. We also explain the origins of all of the ingredients of the Backlund transformations within the framework of noncommutative twistor theory. In particular we show that the generated solutions belong to a noncommutative version of the Atiyah-Ward ansatz.

Bäcklund Transformations for Noncommutative Anti-Self-Dual Yang-Mills Equations

We present Backlund transformations for the noncommutative anti-self-dual Yang-Mills equation where the gauge group is G=GL(2) and use it to generate a series of exact solutions from a simple seed solution. The solutions generated by this approach are represented in terms of quasideterminants and belong to a noncommutative version of the Atiyah-Ward ansatz. In commutative limit, our results coincide with those by Corrigan, Fairlie, Yates and Goddard.
