We find direct and inverse recursion operators for integrable cases of the rmdKP and rdDym equations. Also, we study actions of these operators on the contact symmetries and find shadows of nonlocal symmetries of these equations.
In geometry of nonlinear partial differential equations, recursion operators that act on symmetries of an equation $\mathcal{E}$ are understood as B\"{a}cklund auto-transformations of the equation $\mathcal{TE}$ tangent to $\mathcal{E}$. We…

We continue here the study of Lax integrable equations. We consider four three-dimensional equations: (1) the rdDym equation $u_{ty} = u_x u_{xy} - u_y u_{xx}$, (2) the 3D Pavlov equation $u_{yy} = u_{tx} + u_y u_{xx} - u_x u_{xy}$; (3) the…
By using the self-dual Yang-Mills (SDYM) equation as an example, we study a method for relating symmetries and recursion operators of two partial differential equations connected to each other by a non-auto-Backlund transformation. We prove…
A recursion operator is an integro-differential operator which maps a generalized symmetry of a nonlinear PDE to a new symmetry. Therefore, the existence of a recursion operator guarantees that the PDE has infinitely many higher-order…
We introduce the idea of constructing recursion operators for full-fledged nonlocal symmetries and apply it to the reduced quasi-classical self-dual Yang-Mills equation. It turns out that the discovered recursion operators can be…
We consider the equations $u_{yy} = u_y u_{xx} - (u_x + u)u_{xy} + u_x u_y$ and $u_{yy} = (u_x + x)u_{xy} - (u_{xx} + 2)u_y$ that arise as reductions of the universal hierarchy and rdDym equations, respectively, and describe the Lie…
An algorithm for the symbolic computation of recursion operators for systems of nonlinear differential-difference equations (DDEs) is presented. Recursion operators allow one to generate an infinite sequence of generalized symmetries. The…

An explicit formula to find symmetry recursion operators for partial differential equations (PDEs) is obtained from new results connecting variational integrating factors and non-variational symmetries. The formula is special case of a…
The recursion operators and symmetries of non-autonomous, (1+1)-dimensional integrable evolution equations are considered. It has been previously observed that the symmetries of the integrable evolution equations obtained through their…
Using the methods of the theory of formal symmetries, we obtain new easily verifiable sufficient conditions for a recursion operator to produce a hierarchy of local generalized symmetries. An important advantage of our approach is that…
We present a novel construction of recursion operators for scalar second-order integrable multidimensional PDEs with isospectral Lax pairs written in terms of first-order scalar differential operators. Our approach is quite straightforward…
We consider the recursion operators with nonlocal terms of special form for evolution systems in (1+1) dimensions, and extend them to well-defined operators on the space of nonlocal symmetries associated with the so-called universal Abelian…
Let $D$ and $U$ be linear operators in a vector space (or more generally, elements of an associative algebra with a unit). We establish binomial-type identities for $D$ and $U$ assuming that either their commutator $[D,U]$ or the second…
We consider the 3D equation $u_{yy} = u_{tx} + u_yu_{xx} - u_xu_{xy}$ and its 2D reductions: (1) $u_{yy} = (u_y+y)u_{xx}-u_xu_{xy}-2$ (which is equivalent to the Gibbons-Tsarev equation) and (2) $u_{yy} = (u_y+2x)u_{xx} + (y-u_x)u_{xy}…
We analyze and compare the methods of construction of the recursion operators for a special class of integrable nonlinear differential equations related to A.III-type symmetric spaces in Cartan's classification and having additional…
It is widely known that the recursion operator is a very important component of integrability. It allows one to describe in a compact form both hierarchies of the generalized symmetries and infinite series of the local conservation laws. In…
