New Airy-type solutions of the ultradiscrete Painleve II equation with parity variables

The q-difference Painleve II equation admits special solutions written in terms of determinant whose entries are the general solution of the q-Airy equation. An ultradiscrete limit of the special solutions is studied by the procedure of ultradiscretization with parity varialbes. Then we obtain new Airy-type solutions of the ultradiscrete Painleve II equation with parity variables, and the solutions have richer structure than the known solutions.

Ultradiscrete limit of Bessel function type solutions of the Painlevé III equation

An ultradiscrete analog of the Bessel function is constructed by taking the ultradiscrete limit for a $q$-difference analog of the Bessel function. Then, a direct relationship between a class of special solutions for the ultradiscrete Painlevé III equation and those of the discrete Painlevé III equation which have a determinantal structure is established.

Tropical Krichever construction for the non-periodic box and ball system

A solution for an initial value problem of the box and ball system is constructed from a solution of the periodic box and ball system. The construction is done through a specific limiting process based on the theory of tropical geometry. This method gives a tropical analogue of the Krichever construction, which is an algebro-geometric method to construct exact solutions to integrable systems, for the non-periodic system.

Ultra-discrete Optimal Velocity Model: a Cellular-Automaton Model for Traffic Flow and Linear Instability of High-Flux Traffic

In this paper, we propose the ultra-discrete optimal velocity model, a cellular-automaton model for traffic flow, by applying the ultra-discrete method for the optimal velocity model. The optimal velocity model, defined by a differential equation, is one of the most important models; in particular, it successfully reproduces the instability of high-flux traffic. It is often pointed out that there is a close relation between the optimal velocity model and the mKdV equation, a soliton equation. Meanwhile, the ultra-discrete method enables one to reduce soliton equations to cellular automata which inherit the solitonic nature, such as an infinite number of conservation laws, and soliton solutions. We find that the theory of soliton equations is available for generic differential equations, and the simulation results reveal that the model obtained reproduces both absolutely unstable and convectively unstable flows as well as the optimal velocity model.
