It is known that a family of transfer matrix functional equations, the T-system, can be compactly written in terms of the Cartan matrix of a simple Lie algebra. We formally replace this Cartan matrix of a simple Lie algebra with that of an…
We consider the non-degenerate second-order parabolic partial differential equations of non-divergence form with bounded measurable coefficients (not necessary continuous). Under some assumptions it is known that the fundamental solution to…

We study the asymptotic behavior of Lipschitz continuous solutions of nonlinear degenerate parabolic equations in the periodic setting. Our results apply to a large class of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations. Defining S as the set where the…
We study a class of time-dependent (TD) non-Hermitian Hamiltonians $H(t)$ that can be transformed into a time-independent pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonian $\mathcal{H}_{0}^{PH}$ using a suitable TD unitary transformation $F(t)$. The latter can…
Using the matrix-resolvent method and a formula of the second-named author on the $n$-point function for a KP tau-function, we show that the tau-function of an arbitrary solution to the Toda lattice hierarchy is a KP tau-function. We then…
We introduce and study a conformal heat flow of harmonic maps defined by an evolution equation for a pair consisting of a map and a conformal factor of metric on the two-dimensional domain. This flow is designed to postpone finite time…
We propose a unified four-dimensional (4D) spatiotemporal formulation for time-dependent convection-diffusion problems that preserves underlying physical structures. By treating time as an additional space-like coordinate, the evolution…
We give a gauge invariant formulation of $N=2$ supersymmetric abelian Toda field equations in \n2 superspace. Superconformal invariance is studied. The conserved currents are shown to be associated with Drinfeld-Sokolov type gauges. The…
We classify the soliton data in the totally non--negative part of Gr(k,n) which may be associated to algebraic-geometric data on certain rational degenerations of regular hyperelliptic M-curves. Such degenerate rational curve G is a…
The extended flow equations of the multi-component Toda hierarchy are constructed. We give the Hirota bilinear equations and tau function of this new extended multi-component Toda hierarchy(EMTH). Because of logarithmic terms, some extended…
We say that a function F(tau) obeys WDVV equations, if for a given invertible symmetric matrix eta^{alpha beta} and all tau \in T \subset R^n, the expressions c^{alpha}_{beta gamma}(tau) = eta^{alpha lambda} c_{lambda beta gamma}(tau) =…
We introduce a generalization of $A_{r}$-type Toda theory based on a non-abelian group G, which we call the $(A_{r},G)$-Toda theory, and its affine extensions in terms of gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten actions with deformation terms. In…
The DP equation is investigated from the point of view of determinant-pfaffian identities. The reciprocal link between the Degasperis-Procesi (DP) equation and the pseudo 3-reduction of the $C_{\infty}$ two-dimensional Toda system is used…
Generalizing the graded commutator in superalgebras, we propose a new bracket operation on the space of graded operators with an involution. We study properties of this operation and show that the Lax representation of the two-dimensional…
The "separant" of the evolution equation u_t=F, where F is some differentiable function of the derivatives of u up to order m is the partial derivative \partial F}/{\partial u_m} where u_m={\partial^m u}/{\partial x}^m. We apply the formal…
In the context of global optimization of mixed-integer nonlinear optimization formulations, we consider smoothing univariate functions $f$ that satisfy $f(0)=0$, $f$ is increasing and concave on $[0,+\infty)$, $f$ is twice differentiable on…
It is shown that the algebraic--geometrical (or quasiperiodic) solutions of the Conformal Affine $sl(2)$ Toda model are generated from the vacuum via dressing transformations. This result generalizes the result of Babelon and Bernard which…
Often the factorization of differential cross sections results in the definition of fundamental hadronic functions/distributions which have a double-scale evolution, as provided by a pair of coupled equations. Typically, the two scales are…
The n-particle periodic Toda chain is a well known example of an integrable but nonseparable Hamiltonian system in R^{2n}. We show that Sigma_k, the k-fold singularities of the Toda chain, ie points where there exist k independent linear…
