In this paper we present a far-reaching generalization of E. Vessiot's analysis of the Darboux integrable partial differential equations in one dependent and two independent variables. Our approach provides new insights into this classical…
We study the Laplace operator subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions in a two-dimensional domain that is one-to-one mapped onto a cylinder (rectangle or infinite strip). As a result of this transformation the original eigenvalue problem…
Olver and Rosenau studied group-invariant solutions of (generally nonlinear) partial differential equations through the imposition of a side condition. We apply a similar idea to the special case of finite-dimensional Hamiltonian systems,…
We propose the systematic construction of classical and quantum two dimensional space-time lattices primarily based on algebraic considerations, i.e. on the existence of associated r-matrices and underlying spatial and temporal classical…
In his monograph "Le\c{c}ons sur les syst\`emes orthogonaux et les coordonn\'ees curvilignes. Principes de g\'eom\'etrie analytique", 1910, Darboux stated three theorems providing local existence and uniqueness of solutions to first order…
The paper is devoted to the conjecture that an equation is Darboux integrable if and only if it possesses symmetries depending on arbitrary functions. We note that results of previous works together prove this conjecture for scalar partial…
Conformally St{\"a}ckel manifolds can be characterized as the class of n-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifolds (M, G) on which the Hamilton-Jacobi equation G($\nabla$u, $\nabla$u) = 0 for null geodesics and the Laplace equation --$\Delta$…
We provide precise formulations and proofs of two theorems from Darboux's lectures on orthogonal systems. These results provide local existence and uniqueness of solutions to certain types of first order PDE systems where each equation…
All Darboux integrable difference equations on the quad-graph are described in the case of the equations that possess autonomous first-order integrals in one of the characteristics. A generalization of the discrete Liouville equation is…
This paper is the third and final component of a three-part effort on observers contracting a Riemannian distance between the state of the system and its estimate. In Part I, we showed that such a contraction property holds if the system…
A general separability condition on the second moment (covariance matrix) for continuous variable two-party systems is derived by an analysis analogous to the derivation of the Kennard's uncertainty relation without referring to the…
Let $w\in L^1\_{loc}(\R^n)$ be apositive weight. Assuming that a doubling condition and an $L^1$ Poincar\'e inequality on balls for the measure $w(x)dx$, as well as a growth condition on $w$, we prove that the compact subsets of $\R^n$…
In this paper we implement the Darboux transformation, as well as an analogue of Crum's theorem, for a discrete version of Schr\"odinger equation. The technique is based on the use of first order operators intertwining two difference…
In the second half of the 19th century Darboux obtained determinant formulae that provide the general solution for a linear hyperbolic second order PDE with finite Laplace series. These formulae played an important role in his study of the…
We study trapped surfaces from the point of view of local isometric embedding into three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. When a two-surface is embedded into three-dimensional Euclidean space, the problem of finding all surfaces applicable…
While the notion of isometric deformations of surfaces is straightforward for surfaces with Euclidean metric, a corresponding notion in isotropic space has been missing. By making Gauss' Theorema Egregium a necessary condition we develop a…
We develop method that allows to derive reductions and solutions to hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations. The method is based on using functions that are constant in the direction of characteristics of the system. These…
