Soliton theory and the theory of Hankel (and Toeplitz) operators have stayed essentially hermetic to each other. This paper is concerned with linking together these two very active and extremely large theories. On the prototypical example…
We define hierarchies of differential--q-difference equations, which are q-deformations of the equations of the generalized KdV hierarchies. We show that these hierarchies are bihamiltonian, one of the hamiltonian structures being that of…
We provide a proof of a formula conjectured in \cite{OU93} for some coefficients relevant in the principal vertex operator construction of a simply-laced affine algebra $\gh$. These coefficients are important for the study of the…
We prove a Darboux theorem for formal deformations of Hamiltonian operators of hydrodynamic type (Dubrovin-Novikov). Not all deformations are equivalent to the original operator: there is a moduli 2-stack of normal forms. The paper utilizes…
This work is a continuation and extension of the note published in the Russian Math Surveys 1997 n 6. For any pair of solutions of the spectral problem for the second order selfadjoint real Schrodinger Operator on the graph their Symplectic…
The fractional level models are (logarithmic) conformal field theories associated with affine Kac-Moody (super)algebras at certain levels $k \in \mathbb{Q}$. They are particularly noteworthy because of several longstanding difficulties that…
This is a review of two of the fundamental tools for analysis of soliton equations: i) the algebraic ones based on Kac-Moody algebras, their central extensions and their dual algebras which underlie the Hamiltonian structures of the NLEE;…
We start with the Lax representation for the Kaup-Kupersschmidt equation (KKE). We We outline the deep relation between the scalar Lax operator and the matrix Lax operators related to Kac-Moody algebras. Then we derive the MKdV equations…
We present a definition of the non-abelian generalisations of affine Toda theory related from the outset to vertex operator constructions of the corresponding Kac-Moody algebra $\gh$. Reuslts concerning conjugacy classes of the Weyl group…
We present a brief survey of the results of the Theory of Solitons from the viewpoint of the periodic theory including some new results in the theory of 2-dimensional periodic Schrodinger Operators. The main subjects are: Periodic Solitons…
Within the framework of the discrete Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten theory we analyze the structure of vertex operators on a lattice. In particular, the lattice analogues of operator product expansions and braid relations are discussed. As the…
We investigate a class of Kac-Moody algebras previously not considered. We refer to them as n-extended Lorentzian Kac-Moody algebras defined by their Dynkin diagrams through the connection of an $A_n$ Dynkin diagram to the node…
Recently much attention has been paid to the restriction of KP to the submanifold of operators which can be represented as a ratio of two purely differential operators L=AB^{-1}. Whereas most of the aspects concerning this reduced…
Using the vertex operator representations for symplectic and orthogonal Schur functions, we define two families of symmetric functions and show thatthey are the skew symplectic and skew orthogonal Schur polynomials defined implicitly by…
The algebraic matrix hierarchy approach based on affine Lie $sl (n)$ algebras leads to a variety of 1+1 soliton equations. By varying the rank of the underlying $sl (n)$ algebra as well as its gradation in the affine setting, one…
The Poisson bracket algebra corresponding to the second Hamiltonian structure of a large class of generalized KdV and mKdV integrable hierarchies is carefully analysed. These algebras are known to have conformal properties, and their…
We argue that one of the basic ingredients for the appearance of soliton solutions in integrable hierarchies, is the existence of ``vacuum solutions'' corresponding to Lax operators lying in some abelian subalgebra of the associated affine…
We construct in an explict way the soliton equation corresponding to the affine Kac--Moody Lie algebra $G_2^{(1)}$ together with their bihamiltonian structure. Moreover the Riccati equation satisfied by the generating function of the…
The main properties of indefinite Kac-Moody and Borcherds algebras, considered in a unified way as Lorentzian algebras, are reviewed. The connection with the conformal field theory of the vertex operator construction is discussed. By the…
To every minimal model of a complete local isolated cDV singularity Donovan--Wemyss associate a finite dimensional symmetric algebra known as the contraction algebra. We construct the first known standard derived equivalences between these…
