We construct a certain reduction of the 2D Toda hierarchy and obtain a tau-symmetric Hamiltonian integrable hierarchy. This reduced integrable hierarchy controls the linear Hodge integrals in the way that one part of its flows yields the…

We consider different phase spaces for the Toda flows and the less familiar SVD flows. For the Toda flow, we handle symmetric and non-symmetric matrices with real simple eigenvalues, possibly with a given profile. Profiles encode, for…

We consider entire matrix functions $A(z)$ taking values in $\operatorname{SL}(2,\mathbb C)$. These map pairs of Herglotz functions by acting pointwise as linear fractional transformations. The main examples of such Toda maps are provided…

For a group $H$ and a non empty subset $\Gamma\subseteq H$, the commuting graph $G=\mathcal{C}(H,\Gamma)$ is the graph with $\Gamma$ as the node set and where any $x,y \in \Gamma$ are joined by an edge if $x$ and $y$ commute in $H$. We…

With each antiholomorphic involution $\sigma $ of a connected complex semisimple Lie group $G$ we associate an automorphism $\epsilon_\sigma$ of the Dynkin diagram. The definition of $\epsilon_\sigma$ is given in terms of the Satake diagram…

We use the combinatorics of toric networks and the double affine geometric $R$-matrix to define a three-parameter family of generalizations of the discrete Toda lattice. We construct the integrals of motion and a spectral map for this…

We study completely integrable systems attached to Takiff algebras $\mathfrak{g}_N$, extending open Toda systems of split simple Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$. With respect to Darboux coordinates on coadjoint orbits $\mathcal{O}$, the…

The Lie symmetries of a large class of generalized Toda field theories are studied and used to perform symmetry reduction. Reductions lead to generalized Toda lattices on one hand, to periodic systems on the other. Boundary conditions are…

We consider a Toda system of Liouville equations defined on a compact surface which arises as a model for non-abelian Chern-Simons vortices. For the first time the range of parameters $\rho_1 \in (4k\pi , 4(k+1)\pi)$, $k \in \mathbb{N}$,…

The Toda hierarchy refers to a family of integrable flows on Jacobi operators that have many applications in mathematics and physics. We demonstrate carefully that an alternative characterization of the Toda hierarchy using cocycle maps is…

Let $G$ be a linear connected non-compact real simple Lie group and let $K\subset G$ be a maximal compact subgroup of $G$. Suppose that the centre of $K$ isomorphic to $\mathbb{S}^1$ so that $G/K$ is a global Hermitian symmetric space. Let…

The Toda lattice defined by the Hamiltonian $H={1\over 2} \sum_{i=1}^n p_i^2 + \sum_{i=1}^{n-1} \nu_i e^{q_i-q_{i+1}}$ with $\nu_i\in \{ \pm 1\}$, which exhibits singular (blowing up) solutions if some of the $\nu_i=-1$, can be viewed as…

We introduce an atlas adapted to the Toda flow on the manifold of full flags of any non-compact real semisimple Lie algebra, and on its Hessenberg-type submanifolds. In our local coordinates the Toda flow becomes linear. We use these new…

We classify maximal totally geodesic submanifolds in exceptional symmetric spaces up to isometry. Moreover, we introduce an invariant for certain totally geodesic embeddings of semisimple symmetric spaces, which we call the Dynkin index. We…

We construct coordinates on conjugacy classes of traceless complex matrices with simple spectrum that diagonalize the non-periodic Toda vector field. By this we mean that the coordinates, defined on an open and dense neighborhood of any…

Toda field theories are important integrable systems. They can be regarded as constrained WZNW models, and this viewpoint helps to give their explicit general solutions, especially when a Drinfeld-Sokolov gauge is used. The main objective…

In this paper, we describe a connection that exists among (a) the number of singular points along the trajectory of Toda flow, (b) the cohomology of a compact subgroup $K$, and (c) the number of points of a Chevalley group $K({\mathbb…

When $G$ is a complex reductive algebraic group and $G/K$ is a reductive symmetric space, the decomposition of $\C[G/K]$ as a $K$-module was obtained (in a non-constructive way) by Richardson, generalizing the celebrated result of…
