Integrable nonlocal nonlinear equations

A nonlocal nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) equation was recently found by the authors and shown to be an integrable infinite dimensional Hamiltonian equation. Unlike the classical (local) case, here the nonlinearly induced "potential" is $PT$ symmetric thus the nonlocal NLS equation is also $PT$ symmetric. In this paper, new {\it reverse space-time} and {\it reverse time} nonlocal nonlinear integrable equations are introduced. They arise from remarkably simple symmetry reductions of general AKNS scattering problems where the nonlocality appears in both space and time or time alone. They are integrable infinite dimensional Hamiltonian dynamical systems. These include the reverse space-time, and in some cases reverse time, nonlocal nonlinear Schr\"odinger, modified Korteweg-deVries (mKdV), sine-Gordon, $(1+1)$ and $(2+1)$ dimensional three-wave interaction, derivative NLS, "loop soliton", Davey-Stewartson (DS), partially $PT$ symmetric DS and partially reverse space-time DS equations. Linear Lax pairs, an infinite number of conservation laws, inverse scattering transforms are discussed and one soliton solutions are found. Integrable reverse space-time and reverse time nonlocal discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger type equations are also introduced along with few conserved quantities. Finally, nonlocal Painlev\'e type equations are derived from the reverse space-time and reverse time nonlocal NLS equations.
