An inhomogeneous Lax representation for the Hirota equation

Mathematical Physics 2017-02-01 v2 High Energy Physics - Theory math.MP

Abstract

Motivated by recent work on quantum integrable models without U(1) symmetry, we show that the sl(2) Hirota equation admits a Lax representation with inhomogeneous terms. The compatibility of the auxiliary linear problem leads to a new consistent family of Hirota-like equations.
