Originally a model for wave propagation on the line, the Toda lattice is a wonderful case study in mechanics and symplectic geometry. In Flaschka's variables, it becomes an evolution given by a Lax pair on the vector space of real,…
We consider a nonlinear field equation which can be derived from a binomial lattice as a continuous limit. This equation, containing a perturbative friction-like term and a free parameter $\gamma$, reproduces the Toda case (in absence of…
We study nonlinear wave equations perturbed by transport noise acting either on the displacement or on the velocity. Such noise models random advection and, under suitable scaling of space covariance, may generate an effective dissipative…
We derive and study stochastic dissipative dynamics on coadjoint orbits by incorporating noise and dissipation into mechanical systems arising from the theory of reduction by symmetry, including a semidirect-product extension. Random…
In this paper we consider the Toda lattice $(\mathbf{p}(t);\mathbf{q}(t))$ at thermal equilibrium, meaning that its variables $(p_j)$ and $(e^{q_j-q_{j+1}})$ are independent Gaussian and Gamma random variables, respectively. We show under…
Results on the finite nonperiodic Toda lattice are extended to some generalizations of the system: The relativistic Toda lattice, the generalized Toda lattice associated with simple Lie groups and the full Kostant-Toda lattice. The areas…
We propose a new integrable generalization of the Toda lattice wherein the original Flaschka-Manakov variables are coupled to newly introduced dependent variables; the general case wherein the additional dependent variables are…
We consider equal-mass periodic Toda oscillators with balanced loss-gain for two and three particles. The two-particle system is integrable with the Hamiltonian and the genralized total momentum being two integrals of motion. The model in…
We present a class of solutions of the two-dimensional Toda lattice equation, its fully discrete analogue and its ultra-discrete limit. These solutions demonstrate the existence of soliton resonance and web-like structure in discrete…
One fruitful motivating principle of much research on the family of integrable systems known as ``Toda lattices'' has been the heuristic assumption that the periodic Toda lattice in an affine Lie algebra is directly analogous to the…
The discrete Toda lattice preserves the eigenvalues of tridiagonal matrices, and convergence of dependent variables to the eigenvalues can be proved under appropriate conditions. We show that the ultradiscrete Toda lattice preserves…
Results are reported from a numerical investigation of orbits in a truncated Toda potential which is perturbed by weak friction and noise. Two significant conclusions are shown to emerge: (1) Despite other nontrivial behaviour,…
We consider the propagation of a shock wave (SW) in the damped Toda lattice. The SW is a moving boundary between two semi-infinite lattice domains with different densities. A steadily moving SW may exist if the damping in the lattice is…
We investigate the form of equilibrium spatio-temporal correlation functions of conserved quantities, and of energy transport in the Toda lattice and in other integrable models. From numerical simulations we find that the correlations…
We prove diffusive behaviour of the energy fluctuations in a system of harmonic oscillators with a stochastic perturbation of the dynamics that conserves energy and momentum. The results concern pinned systems or lattice dimension $d\ge 3$,…
We study the dispersionless version of the recently introduced constrained Toda hierarchy. Like the Toda lattice itself, it admits three equivalent formulations: the formulation in terms of Lax equations, the formulation of the…
The Hamiltonian structure of the two-dimensional dispersionless Toda hierarchy is studied, this being a particular example of a system of hydrodynamic type. The polynomial conservation laws for the system turn out, after a change of…
In this paper we discuss two items which in one way or another originated from conversations with Hermann Flaschka and his students. The first is an application of the Toda lattice to the question of whether there exists a complex Lie group…
It is shown that the factorization relation on simple Lie groups with standard Poisson Lie structure restricted to Coxeter symplectic leaves gives an integrable dynamical system. This system can be regarded as a discretization of the Toda…
We demonstrate that a staggered parametric ac driving term can support stable progressive motion of a soliton in a Toda lattice with friction, while an unstaggered drivng force cannot. A physical context of the model is that of a chain of…
