We study a modified version of an equation of the continuous Toda type in 1+1 dimensions. This equation contains a friction-like term which can be switched off by annihilating a free parameter $\ep$. We apply the prolongation method, the…
Consider the operator $ T=-{d^2dx^2}+x^2+q(x)$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$, where real functions $q$, $q'$ and $\int_0^xq(s)ds$ are bounded. In particular, $q$ is periodic or almost periodic. The spectrum of $T$ is purely discrete and consists of…
We develop algebro-geometrical approach for the open Toda lattice. For a finite Jacobi matrix we introduce a singular reducible Riemann surface and associated Baker-Akhiezer functions. We provide new explicit solution of inverse spectral…
We consider discrete spectra of bound states for non-relativistic motion in attractive potentials V_{\sigma}(x) = -|V_{0}| |x|^{-\sigma}, 0 < \sigma \leq 2. For these potentials the quasiclassical approximation for n -> \infty predicts…
For each one of the Lie algebras $\mathfrak{gl}_{n}$ and $\widetilde {\mathfrak{gl}}_{n}$, we constructed a family of integrable generalizations of the Toda chains characterized by two integers $m_{+}$ and $m_{-}$. The Lax matrices and the…
A pedagogical presentation of integrable models with special reference to the Toda lattice hierarchy has been attempted. The example of the KdV equation has been studied in detail, beginning with the infinite conserved quantities and going…
In this paper, we find a full Lebesgue measure set of frequencies $\check \II\subset [0,1]\setminus \Q$ such that for any $(\alpha,\lambda)\in \check \II\times [24,\infty)$, the Hausdorff and box dimensions of the spectrum of the Sturmian…
The discrete-time Toda equation arises as a universal equation for the relevant Hankel determinants associated with one-variable orthogonal polynomials through the mechanism of adjacency, which amounts to the inclusion of shifted weight…
We study asymptotic solutions to a singularly-perturbed, period-2 Toda lattice and use exponential asymptotics to examine `nanoptera', which are nonlocal solitary waves with constant-amplitude, exponentially small wave trains. With this…
We derive the long-time asymptotics for the Toda shock problem using the nonlinear steepest descent analysis for oscillatory Riemann--Hilbert factorization problems. We show that the half plane of space/time variables splits into five main…
The authors analyze the asymptotics of eigenvalues of Toeplitz matrices with certain continuous and discontinuous symbols. In particular, the authors prove a conjecture of Levitin and Shargorodsky on the near-periodicity of Toeplitz…
We show that the multi-boson KP hierarchies possess a class of discrete symmetries linking them to the discrete Toda systems. These discrete symmetries are generated by the similarity transformation of the corresponding Lax operator. This…
For the root system of each complex semi-simple Lie algebra of rank two, and for the associated 2D Toda chain $E=\{u_{xy}=\exp(K u)\}$, we calculate the two first integrals of the characteristic equation $D_y(w)=0$ on $E$. Using the…
We have derived a non-abelian analog for the two-dimensional discrete Toda lattice which possesses solutions in terms of quasideterminants and admits Lax pairs of different forms. Its connection with non-abelian analogs for several…
The periodic Toda lattice with $N$ sites is globally symplectomorphic to a two parameter family of $N-1$ coupled harmonic oscillators. The action variables fill out the whole positive quadrant of $\R^{N-1}$. We prove that in the interior of…
In this paper we consider the Toda lattice $(\boldsymbol{p}(t); \boldsymbol{q}(t))$ at thermal equilibrium, meaning that its variables $(p_i)$ and $(e^{q_i-q_{i+1}})$ are independent Gaussian and Gamma random variables, respectively. This…
Let $\gamma_n $ denote the length of the $n$-th zone of instability of the Hill operator $Ly= -y^{\prime \prime} - [4t\alpha \cos2x + 2 \alpha^2 \cos 4x ] y,$ where $\alpha \neq 0, $ and either both $\alpha, t $ are real, or both are pure…
We introduce a class of ${\mathbb{Z}}_N$ graded discrete Lax pairs, with $N\times N$ matrices, linear in the spectral parameter. We give a classification scheme for such Lax pairs and the associated discrete integrable systems. We present…
Asymptotic forms of the Hilbert-Scmidt and Hilbert norms of positive definite Toeplitz matrices $Q_{N}=(b(j-k))_{j,k=0}^{N-1}$ as $N\to \infty $ are determined. Here $b(j)$ are consequent trigonometric moments of a generating non-negative…
Previous results on quasi-classical limit of the KP hierarchy and its W-infinity symmetries are extended to the Toda hierarchy. The Planck constant $\hbar$ now emerges as the spacing unit of difference operators in the Lax formalism. Basic…
