Miura-reciprocal transformation and symmetries for the spectral problems of KdV and mKdV

We present reciprocal transformations for the spectral problems of Korteveg de Vries (KdV) and modified Korteveg de Vries (mKdV) equations. The resulting equations, RKdV (reciprocal KdV) and RmKdV (reciprocal mKdV), are connected through a transformation that combines both Miura and reciprocal transformations. Lax pairs for RKdV and RmKdV are straightforwardly obtained by means of the aforementioned reciprocal transformations. We have also identified the classical Lie symmetries for the Lax pairs of RKdV and RmKdV. Non-trivial similarity reductions are computed and they yield non-autonomous ordinary differential equations (ODEs), whose Lax pairs are obtained as a consequence of the reductions.

Derivative non-linear Schrödinger equation: Singular manifold method and Lie symmetries

We present a generalized study and characterization of the integrability properties of the derivative non-linear Schrödinger equation in 1+1 dimensions. A Lax pair is derived for this equation by means of a Miura transformation and the singular manifold method. This procedure, together with the Darboux transformations, allow us to construct a wide class of rational soliton-like solutions. Lie classical symmetries have also been computed and similarity reductions have been analyzed and discussed.

Spectral problem for a two-component nonlinear Schrödinger equation in $2+1$ dimensions: Singular manifold method and Lie point symmetries

An integrable two-component nonlinear Schrödinger equation in $2+1$ dimensions is presented. The singular manifold method is applied in order to obtain a three-component Lax pair. The Lie point symmetries of this Lax pair are calculated in terms of nine arbitrary functions and one arbitrary constant that yield a non-trivial infinite-dimensional Lie algebra. The main non-trivial similarity reductions associated to these symmetries are identified. The spectral parameter of the reduced spectral problem appears as a consequence of one of the symmetries.
