Abstract

A concept of strong necessary conditions for extremum of functional has been aplied for analysis an existence of dual equations for a system of two nonlinear Partial Differential Equations (PDE) in 1+1 dimensions. We consider two types of the dual equations: the Bäcklund transformations and the Bogomolny equations. A general form of the second order PDE with a derivative-less non-linear term has been cosidered. In the case of a coupled system of equations the general conditions for the existence of the Bogomolny decomposition are derived. In the case of an uncoupled system of equations the Bogomolny equations become the Bäcklund transformations. It has been found a denumerable classes of coupled systems possessing the Bogomolny relationship. Weaken the method into semi-strong necessary conditions is presented together with an application to the Lax hierarchy. The method basing on both the strong and the semi-strong necessary condition concept reduces the derivation of the dual equations to an algorithm.
