In the previous report (J. Phys.A30 (1997) 4019–4029), I showed that the Dirac operator defined over a conformal surface immersed in ℝ3 by means of confinement procedure is identified with the differential operator of the generalized Weierstrass equation and the Lax operator of the modified Novikov–Veselov (MNV) equation. In this article, using the same procedure, I determine the Dirac operator defined over a conformal surface immersed in ℝ4, which is for a Dirac field confined in the surface. Then it is reduced to the Lax operators of the nonlinear Schrödinger and the MNV equations by taking appropriate limits. It means that the Dirac operator is related to the further generalized Weierstrass equation for a surface in ℝ4.

In previous report (J. Phys. A (1997) 30 4019–4029), I showed that the Dirac operator confined in a surface immersed in ℝ3 by means of a mass type potential completely exhibits the surface itself and is identified with that of the generalized Weierstrass equation. In this article, I quantized the Dirac field and calculated the gauge transformation which exhibits the gauge freedom of the parameterization of the surface. Then using the Ward–Takahashi identity, I showed that the expectation value of the action of the Dirac field is expressed by the Willmore functional and area of the surface, or the action of Polyakov's extrinsic string.

Recently we found that the Dirac operator on a thin elastic rod is identical with the Lax operator of the modified Korteweg-de Vries (MKdV) equation while the thin elastic rod is governed by the MKdV equation. In this article, we will show the physical relation between the Hirota bilinear method and the Dirac field in a thin rod on two-dimensional space, along the lines of the Jimbo-Miwa construction of the MKdV soliton.

We are concerned with a class of nonlinear Schrödinger-type equations with a reaction term and a differential operator that involves a variable exponent. By using related variational methods, we establish several existence results.

The Sturm-Liouville problem with various types of two-point boundary conditions is considered in this paper. In the first part of the paper, we investigate the Sturm-Liouville problem in three cases of nonlocal two-point boundary conditions. We prove general properties of the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues for such a problem in the complex case. In the second part, we investigate the case of real eigenvalues. It is analyzed how the spectrum of these problems depends on the boundary condition parameters. Qualitative behavior of all eigenvalues subject to the nonlocal boundary condition parameters is described.
