Pages: 66 - 75
This paper is an informal collection of observations on how established rewriting techniques can be applied to or need to be adapted for use in non-associative algebras, operads, and PROPs.

von Neumann Quantization of Aharonov-Bohm Operator with Interaction: Scattering Theory, Spectral and Resonance Properties

Gilbert Honnouvo, Mahouton Norbert Hounkonnou, Gabriel Yves Hugues
Pages: 66 - 71
Using the theory of self-adjoint extensions, we study the interaction model formally given by the Hamiltonian H + V (r), where H is the Aharonov-Bohm Hamiltonian and V (r) is the -type interaction potential on the cylinder of radius R . We give the mathematical definition of the model, the self-adjointness...

Symmetries of a Class of Nonlinear Fourth Order Partial Differential Equations

Peter A. Clarkson, Thomas J. Priestley
Pages: 66 - 98
In this paper we study symmetry reductions of a class of nonlinear fourth order partial differential equations utt = u + u2 xx + uuxxxx + µuxxtt + uxuxxx + u2 xx, (1) where , , , and µ are arbitrary constants. This equation may be thought of as a fourth order analogue of a generalization of the Camassa-Holm...

Leading order integrability conditions for differential-difference equations

Mark S. Hickman
Pages: 66 - 86
A necessary condition for the existence of conserved densities and fluxes of a differential-difference equation which depend on q shifts, for q sufficiently large, is presented. This condition depends on the eigenvalues of the leading terms in the differential-difference equation. It also gives, explicitly,...

The gauge transformation of the modified KP hierarchy

Jipeng Cheng
Pages: 66 - 85
In this paper, we firstly investigate the successive applications of three elementary gauge transformation operators Ti with i = 1,2,3 for the mKP hierarchy in Kupershmidt-Kiso version, and find that the gauge transformation operators Ti can not commute with each other. Then two types of gauge transformation...

Is My ODE a Painlevé Equation in Disguise?

Jarmo Hietarinta, Valery Dryuma
Pages: 67 - 74
Painlevé equations belong to the class y +a1 y 3 +3a2 y 2 +3a3 y +a4 = 0, where ai = ai(x, y). This class of equations is invariant under the general point transformation x = (X, Y ), y = (X, Y ) and it is therefore very difficult to find out whether two equations in this class are related. We describe...

Lie Symmetries of Einstein's Vacuum Equations in N Dimensions

Louis Marchildon
Pages: 68 - 81
We investigate Lie symmetries of Einstein's vacuum equations in N dimensions, with a cosmological term. For this purpose, we first write down the second prolongation of the symmetry generating vector fields, and compute its action on Einstein's equations. Instead of setting to zero the coefficients of...

Focusing NLS Equations with Nonzero Boundary Conditions: Triangular Representations and Direct Scattering

Cornelis van der Mee
Pages: 68 - 89
In this article we derive the triangular representations of the fundamental eigensolutions of the focusing 1 + 1 AKNS system with symmetric nonvanishing boundary conditions. Its continuous spectrum equals 𝕉∪[-iμ,iμ] , where μ is the absolute value of the AKNS solution at spatial infinity. We...

Moyal Deformation of 2D Euler Equation and Discretization

Partha Guha
Pages: 69 - 76
In this paper we discuss the Moyal deformed 2D Euler flows and its Lax pairs. This in turn yields the semi-discrete version of 2D Euler equation.

Calogero­Moser Systems and Super Yang­Mills with Adjoint Matter

Eric d'Hoker, D.H. Phong
Pages: 69 - 78
We review the construction of Lax pairs with spectral parameter for twisted and utwisted elliptic Calogero-Moser systems defined by a general simple Lie algebra G, and the corresponding solution of N = 2 SUSY G Yang-Mills theories with a hypermultplet in the adjoint representation of G.

Variational Symmetry in Non-integrable Hamiltonian Systems

Umeno Ken
Pages: 69 - 77
We consider the variational symmetry from the viewpoint of the non-integrability criterion towards dynamical systems. That variational symmetry can reduce complexity in determining non-integrability of general dynamical systems is illustrated here by a new non-integrability result about Hamiltonian systems...

Alternate Derivation of the Critical Value of the Frank-Kamenetskii Parameter in Cylindrical Geometry

Charis Harely, Ebrahim Momoniat
Pages: 69 - 76
Noether’s theorem is used to determine first integrals admitted by a generalised Lane-Emden equation of the second kind modelling a thermal explosion. These first integrals exist for rectangular and cylindrical geometry. For rectangular geometry the first integrals show the symmetry of the temperature...

Stanley Decomposition for Coupled Takens–Bogdanov Systems

David Mumo Malonza
Pages: 69 - 85
We use an algorithm based on the notion of transvectants from classical invariant theory in determining the form of Stanley decomposition of the ring of invariants for the coupled Takens–Bogdanov systems when the Stanley decompositions of the Jordan blocks of the linear part are known at each stage....

Özlem Orhan, Özer Teoman
Pages: 69 - 90
In this study, we represent an application of the geometrical characterization of μ-prolongations of vector fields to the nonlinear partial differential Gardner equation with variable coefficients. First, μ-symmetries and the corresponding μ-symmetry classification are investigated and then μ-reduction...

Prolongability of Ordinary Differential Equations

Yoshishige Haraoka
Pages: 70 - 84
We extend the notion of deformation to inverse operations of restrictions of completely integrable systems to regular or singular locus, and call the extended notion prolongation. We show that a prolongability determines uniquely a Fuchsian ordinary differential equation of rank three with three regular...

On Stochastic Deformations of Dynamical Systems

Ilya Shereshevskii
Pages: 71 - 85
I discuss the connection of the three different questions: The existence of the Gibbs steady state distributions for the stochastic differential equations, the notion and the existence of the conservation laws for such equations, and the convergence of the smooth random perturbations of dynamical systems...

Green function for Klein-Gordon-Dirac equation

Vasyl Kovalchuk
Pages: 72 - 77
The Green function for Klein-Gordon-Dirac equation is obtained. The case with the dominating Klein-Gordon term is considered. There seems to be a formal analogy between our problem and a certain problem for a 4-dimensional particle moving in the external field. The explicit relations between the wave...
