Integrability and Symmetries of Difference Equations: the Adler-Bobenko-Suris Case

Exactly Solvable and Integrable Systems 2009-02-24 v1

Abstract

We consider the partial difference equations of the Adler-Bobenko-Suris classification, which are characterized as multidimensionally consistent. The latter property leads naturally to the construction of auto-B{\"a}cklund transformations and Lax pairs for all the equations in this class. Their symmetry analysis is presented and infinite hierarchies of generalized symmetries are explicitly constructed.
