Abstract

We consider the cubic Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) hierarchy in one spatial dimension. We establish the existence of an infinite sequence of observables such that the corresponding trace functionals, which we call ``energies,'' commute with respect to the weak Lie-Poisson structure defined by the authors in arXiv:1908.03847. The Hamiltonian equation associated to the third energy functional is precisely the GP hierarchy. The equations of motion corresponding to the remaining energies generalize the well-known nonlinear Schr\"odinger hierarchy, the third element of which is the one-dimensional cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. This work provides substantial evidence for the GP hierarchy as a new integrable system.
