On the algebra of nonlocal symmetries for the 4D Mart\'ınez Alonso-Shabat equation

We consider the 4D Mart\'ınez Alonso-Shabat equation $u_{ty} = u_z u_{xy} - u_y u_{xz}$ (also referred to as the universal hierarchy equation) and using its known Lax pair construct two infinite-dimensional differential coverings over $\mathcal{E}$. In these coverings, we give a complete description of the Lie algebras of nonlocal symmetries. In particular, our results generalize the ones obtained in [O.I.Morozov, A.Sergyeyev, The four-dimensional Mart\'ınez Alonso-shabat equation: reductions and nonlocal symmetries. J. of Geom. and Phys. 85 (2014), 40--45 (arXiv:1401.7942v2)] and contain the constructed there infinite hierarchy of commuting symmetries as a subalgebra in a much bigger Lie algebra.

2D reductions of the equation $u_{yy} = u_{tx} + u_yu_{xx} - u_xu_{xy}$ and their nonlocal symmetries

We consider the 3D equation $u_{yy} = u_{tx} + u_yu_{xx} - u_xu_{xy}$ and its 2D reductions: (1) $u_{yy} = (u_y+y)u_{xx}-u_xu_{xy}-2$ (which is equivalent to the Gibbons-Tsarev equation) and (2) $u_{yy} = (u_y+2x)u_{xx} + (y-u_x)u_{xy} -u_x$. Using reduction of the known Lax pair for the 3D equation, we describe nonlocal symmetries of~(1) and~(2) and show that the Lie algebras of these symmetries are isomorphic to the Witt algebra.

Nonlocal symmetries of Lax integrable equations: a comparative study

We continue here the study of Lax integrable equations. We consider four three-dimensional equations: (1) the rdDym equation $u_{ty} = u_x u_{xy} - u_y u_{xx}$, (2) the 3D Pavlov equation $u_{yy} = u_{tx} + u_y u_{xx} - u_x u_{xy}$; (3) the universal hierarchy equation $u_{yy} = u_t u_{xy} - u_y u_{tx}$, and (4) the modified Veronese web equation $u_{ty} = u_t u_{xy} - u_y u_{tx}$. For each equation, using the know Lax pairs and expanding the latter in formal series in spectral parameter, we construct two infinite-dimensional differential coverings and give a full description of nonlocal symmetry algebras associated to these coverings. For all the for pairs of coverings, the obtained Lie algebras of symmetries manifest similar (but not the same) structures: the are (semi) direct sums of the Witt algebra, the algebra of vector fields on the line, and loop algebras; all of them contain a component of finite grading. We also discuss actions of recursion operators on shadows (in the sense of [I.S.Krasil'shchik, A.M. Vinogradov, Acta Appl. Math., 15 (1989) 1-2, 161--209.]) of nonlocal symmetries.
