Dispersionless BKP Equation, the Manakov–Santini System and Einstein–Weyl Structures

We construct a map from solutions of the dispersionless BKP (dBKP) equation to solutions of the Manakov–Santini (MS) system. This map defines an Einstein–Weyl structure corresponding to the dBKP equation through the general Lorentzian Einstein–Weyl structure corresponding to the MS system. We give a spectral characterisation of reduction in the MS system, which singles out the image of the dBKP equation solution, and also consider more general reductions of this class. We define the BMS system and extend the map defined above to the map (Miura transformation) of solutions of the BMS system to solutions of the MS system, thus obtaining an Einstein–Weyl structure for the BMS system.

On an integrable multi-component Camassa–Holm system arising from Möbius geometry

In this paper, we mainly study the geometric background, integrability and peaked solutions of a ( 1 + n ) -component Camassa–Holm (CH) system and some related multi-component integrable systems. Firstly, we show this system arises from the invariant curve flows in the Möbius geometry and serves as the dual integrable counterpart of a geometrical ( 1 + n ) -component Korteweg–de Vries system in the sense of tri-Hamiltonian duality. Moreover, we obtain an integrable two-component modified CH system using a generalized Miura transformation. Finally, we provide a necessary condition, under which the dual integrable systems can inherit the Bäcklund correspondence from the original ones.

q-deformation of corner vertex operator algebras by Miura transformation

Recently, Gaiotto and Rapcak proposed a generalization of WN algebra by considering the symmetry at the corner of the brane intersection (corner vertex operator algebra). The algebra, denoted as YL,M,N, is characterized by three non-negative integers L, M, N. It has a manifest triality automorphism which interchanges L, M, N, and can be obtained as a reduction of W1+∞ algebra with a “pit” in the plane partition representation. Later, Prochazka and Rapcak proposed a representation of YL,M,N in terms of L + M + N free bosons by a generalization of Miura transformation, where they use the fractional power differential operators.In this paper, we derive a q-deformation of the Miura transformation. It gives a free field representation for q-deformed YL,M,N, which is obtained as a reduction of the quantum toroidal algebra. We find that the q-deformed version has a “simpler” structure than the original one because of the Miki duality in the quantum toroidal algebra. For instance, one can find a direct correspondence between the operators obtained by the Miura transformation and those of the quantum toroidal algebra. Furthermore, we can show that the both algebras share the same screening operators.

Inverse spectral problem for Jacobi operators and Miura transformation

We study a Miura-type transformation between Kac - van Moerbeke (Volterra) and Toda lattices in terms of the inverse spectral problem for Jacobi operators, which appear in the Lax representation for such systems. This inverse problem method, which amounts to reconstruction of the operator from the moments of its Weyl function, can be used in solving initial-boundary value problem for both systems. It is shown that the Miura transformation can be easily described in terms of these moments. Using this description we establish a bijection between the Volterra lattices and the class of Toda lattices which is characterized by positivity of Jacobi operators in their Lax representation. Also, we discuss an implication of the latter result to the spectral theory.

ON THE EXISTENCE OF INFINITE CONSERVATION LAWS OF A VARIABLE-COEFFICIENT KORTEWEG–DE VRIES MODEL WITH SYMBOLIC COMPUTATION

Under investigation in this paper is a generalized variable-coefficient Korteweg–de Vries (vcKdV) model with external-force and perturbed/dissipative terms, which can describe various real dynamical processes of physics from atmosphere blocking and gravity waves, blood vessels, Bose–Einstein condensates, rods and positons and so on. With the aid of symbolic computation, a generalized Miura transformation is proposed to relate the solutions of the vcKdV equation to those of a variable-coefficient modified Korteweg–de Vries equation. Then by using such a Miura transformation and the Galilean invariant transformation, the existence of infinite conservation laws are proved under the Painlevé integrable condition. These results may be valuable for the new discoveries in dynamical systems described by integrable vcKdV models and the theoretical study of the relationships among infinite conservation laws, the integrability of the nonlinear evolution equation and inverse scattering transform.

Justification of the NLS Approximation for the KdV Equation Using the Miura Transformation

It is the purpose of this paper to give a simple proof of the fact that solutions of the KdV equation can be approximated via solutions of the NLS equation. The proof is based on an elimination of the quadratic terms of the KdV equation via the Miura transformation.
