Abstract

Different gauge copies of the Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segur (AKNS) model labeled by an angle θ\theta are constructed and then reduced to the two-component Camassa--Holm model. Only three different independent classes of reductions are encountered corresponding to the angle θ\theta being 0, π/2\pi/2 or taking any value in the interval 0<θ<π/20<\theta<\pi/2. This construction induces B\"{a}cklund transformations between solutions of the two-component Camassa--Holm model associated with different classes of reduction.
