We express all equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of the projective line as matrix elements of explicit operators acting in the Fock space. As a consequence, we prove the equivariant theory is governed by the 2-Toda hierarchy of Ueno and…

Based on Johnson's operator formula for the equivariant Gromov-Witten theory of $\mathbb{P}^1$-orbifolds, we give a new approach to the operator formalism by Okounkov and Pandharipande regarding the $\mathbb{C}^*$-equivariant Gromov-Witten…
We construct an integrable hierarchy in terms of vertex operators and Hirota Quadratic Equations (HQE shortly) and we show that the equivariant total descendant potential of $\C P^1$ satisfies the HQE. Our prove is based on the quantization…
Let $\CP^1_{k,m}$ be the orbifold structure on $\CP^1$ obtained via uniformizing the neighborhoods of 0 and $\infty$ respectively by $z\mapsto z^k$ and $w\mapsto w^m.$ The diagonal action of the torus on the projective line induces…
We study the Toda conjecture of Eguchi and Yang for the Gromov-Witten invariants of CP^1,using the bihamiltonian method of the formal calculus of variations. We also study its relationship to the Virasoro conjecture for CP^1, recently…
We study the relation between the group-algebraic approach and the dressing symmetry one to the soliton solutions of the $A_n^{(1)}$ Toda field theory in 1+1 dimensions. Originally solitons in the affine Toda models has been found by Olive,…
The solutions of a large class of hierarchies of zero-curvature equations that includes Toda and KdV type hierarchies are investigated. All these hierarchies are constructed from affine (twisted or untwisted) Kac-Moody algebras~$\ggg$.…
Affine Toda equations based on simple Lie algebras arise by imposing zero curvature condition on a Lax connection which belongs to the corresponding loop Lie algebra in the principal gradation. In the particular case of $A_n^{(1)}$ Toda…
A construction of general solutions of the \hbar-dependent Toda hierarchy is presented. The construction is based on a Riemann-Hilbert problem for the pairs (L,M) and (\bar L,\bar M) of Lax and Orlov-Schulman operators. This Riemann-Hilbert…
The factorization problem of the multi-component 2D Toda hierarchy is used to analyze the dispersionless limit of this hierarchy. A dispersive version of the Whitham hierarchy defined in terms of scalar Lax and Orlov--Schulman operators is…
Various equivariant intersection numbers on Hilbert schemes of points on the affine plane are computed, some of which are organized into tau-functions of 2-Toda hierarchies. A correspondence between the equivariant intersection on Hilbert…
We express the Poisson brackets of local fields of the affine Toda field theories in terms of the Drinfeld-Sokolov dressing operator. For this, we introduce a larger space of fields, containing ``half screening charges'' and ``half…
This paper addresses the issue of integrable structure in a modified melting crystal model of topological string theory on the resolved conifold. The partition function can be expressed as the vacuum expectation value of an operator on the…
In the framework of the free field representation we obtain exact form factors of local operators in the two-dimensional affine Toda theories of the $A^{(1)}_{L-1}$ series. The construction generalizes Lukyanov's well-known construction to…
Recently Strachan introduced a Moyal algebraic deformation of selfdual gravity, replacing a Poisson bracket of the Plebanski equation by a Moyal bracket. The dressing operator method in soliton theory can be extended to this Moyal algebraic…

In a companion paper to this one, we proved that the Gromov--Witten theory of a Fano orbifold line of type $D$ is governed by a system of Hirota Bilinear Equations. The goal of this paper is to prove that every solution to the Hirota…
We elaborate on quantum moduli spaces in 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ $SU(N)_k$ Chern-Simons gauge theories with $F$ fundamental and $\bar{F}$ anti-fundamental matter fields. The quantum flat direction on the Coulomb branch differs so much from the…
