We analyze in detail three classes of isomondromy deformation problems associated with integrable systems. The first two are related to the scaling invariance of the $n\times n$ AKNS hierarchies and the Gel'fand-Dikii hierarchies. The third…

We study the Drinfeld-Sokolov hierarchies of type A_n^{(1)} associated with the regular conjugacy classes of W(A_n). A class of fourth order Painleve systems is derived from them by similarity reductions.
We study inhomogeneous nonlinear second-order differential equations in one dimension. The inhomogeneities can be point sources or continuous source distributions. We consider second order differential equations of type $\phi''(x) +…

The dynamics of the highly nonlinear fifth order $KdV$-type equation is discussed in the framework of the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms. The symmetries of the Lagrangian produce three commuting conserved quantities that are found to…

This work is devoted to the study of a Liouville comparison principle for entire weak solutions of quasilinear differential inequalities of the form $A(u) + |u|^{q-1}u \leq A(v) + |v|^{q-1}v$ on ${\Bbb R}^n$, where $n\geq 1$, $q$ is…
We study the Whitham equations for the fifth order KdV equation. The equations are neither strictly hyperbolic nor genuinely nonlinear. We are interested in the solution of the Whitham equations when the initial values are given by a step…
The general KdV equation (gKdV) derived by T. Chou is one of the famous (1+1) dimensional soliton equations with variable coefficients. It is well-known that the gKdV equation is integrable. In this paper a higher-dimensional gKdV equation,…
We construct a family of graded isomorphisms between certain subquotients of diagrammatic Cherednik algebras as the quantum characteristic, multicharge, level, degree, and weighting are allowed to vary; this provides new structural…
We study conditions on $f$ under which an $f$-divergence $D_f$ will satisfy $D_f \geq c_f V^2$ or $D_f \geq c_{2,f} V^2 + c_{4,f} V^4$, where $V$ denotes variational distance and the coefficients $c_f$, $c_{2,f}$ and $c_{4,f}$ are {\em best…
