We present interpretation of known results in the theory of discrete asymptotic and discrete conjugate nets from the "discretization by B\"{a}cklund transformations" point of view. We collect both classical formulas of XIXth century…
We construct B\"acklund transformations (BTs) for the Kirchhoff top by taking advantage of the common algebraic Poisson structure between this system and the $sl(2)$ trigonometric Gaudin model. Our BTs are integrable maps providing an exact…

We consider various 2D lattice equations and their integrability, from the point of view of 3D consistency, Lax pairs and B\"acklund transformations. We show that these concepts, which are associated with integrability, are not strictly…
The Ward equation, also called the modified 2+1 chiral model, is obtained by a dimension reduction and a gauge fixing from the self-dual Yang-Mills field equation on $R^{2,2}$. It has a Lax pair and is an integrable system. Ward constructed…
Using the n-particle periodic Toda lattice and the relativistic generalization due to Ruijsenaars of the elliptic Calogero-Moser system as examples, we revise the basic properties of the Baecklund transformations (BT's) from the Hamiltonian…
A set of infinitely many nonlocal conservation laws are revealed for (1+1)-dimensional evolution equations. For some special known integrable systems, say, the KdV and Dym equations, it is found that different nonlocal conservation laws can…
From an algebraic construction of the mKdV hierarchy we observe that the space component of the Lax operator play a role of an universal algebraic object. This fact induces the universality of a gauge transformation that relates two field…
We propose a method to identify and classify evolution equations and systems that can be multipotentialised in given target equations or target systems. We refer to this as the {\it converse problem}. Although we mainly study a method for…
A couple of applications of B\"acklund transformations in the study of nonlinear evolution equations is here given. Specifically, we are concerned about third order nonlinear evolution equations. Our attention is focussed on one side, on…

The Backlund transformation for pseudospherical surfaces, which is equivalent to that of the sine-Gordon equation, can be restricted to give a transformation on space curves that preserves constant torsion. We study its effects on closed…
