Abstract

The Jackiw-Teitelboim gauge formulation of the 1+1 dimensional gravity allows us to relate different gauge fixing conditions with integrable hierarchies of evolution equations. We show that the equations for the Zweibein fields can be written as a pair of time reversed evolution equations of the reaction-diffusion type, admitting dissipative solutions. The spectral parameter for the related Lax pair appears as the constant valued spin connection associated with the SO(1,1)SO(1,1) gauge symmetry. Spontaneous breaking of the non-compact symmetry and the irreversible evolution are discussed.
