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,…
The classical Toda flow is a well-known integrable Hamiltonian system that diagonalizes matrices. By keeping track of the distribution of entries and precise scattering asymptotics, one can exhibit matrix models for log-gases on the real…
Four integrable symplectic maps approximating two Hamiltonian flows from the relativistic Toda hierarchy are introduced. They are demostrated to belong to the same hierarchy and to examplify the general scheme for symplectic maps on groups…
We describe the geometry of the incompressible porous medium (IPM) equation: we prove that it is a gradient dynamical system on the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms and has a special double-bracket form. Furthermore, we show its…
We consider the full symmetric version of the Lax operator of the Toda lattice which is known as the full symmetric Toda lattice. The phase space of this system is the generic orbit of the coadjoint action of the Borel subgroup B^+(n) of…

Flows on (or variations of) discrete curves in $\R^2$ give rise to flows on a subalgebra of functions on that curve. For a special choice of flows and a certain subalgebra this is described by the Toda lattice hierachy. In the paper it is…

A totally nonnegative matrix is a real-valued matrix whose minors are all nonnegative. In this paper, we concern with the totally nonnegative structure of the finite Toda lattice, a classical integrable system, which is expressed as a…
In this paper we discuss some geometrical and topological properties of the full symmetric Toda system. We show by a direct inspection that the phase transition diagram for the full symmetric Toda system in dimensions $n=3,4$ coincides with…
In this paper we introduce a flow to study the Toda system, which we call {\it Toda flow.} More generally, we introduce a flow of the Liouville systems, formulated as a coupled parabolic system with nonlocal interactions. Finite-time…
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 define an integrable hamiltonian system of Toda type associated with the real Lie algebra $\so{p}{q}$. As usual there exists a periodic and a non-periodic version. We construct, using the root space, two Lax pair representations and the…
The duality between a class of the Davey-Stewartson type coupled systems and a class of two-dimensional Toda type lattices is discussed. For the recently found integrable lattice the hierarchy of symmetries is described. Second and third…
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…
In a recent paper we constructed an integrable generalization of the Toda law on the square lattice. In this paper we construct other examples of integrable dynamics of Toda-type on the square lattice, as well as on the triangular lattice,…
We show how to construct semi-invariants and integrals of the full symmetric sl(n) Toda lattice for all n. Using the Toda equations for the Lax eigenvector matrix we prove the existence of semi-invariants which are homogeneous coordinates…

The aim of this work is focused on the investigation of the algebraic complete integrability of the Toda lattice associated with the twisted affine Lie algebra $a_4^{(2)}$. First, we prove that the generic fiber of the momentum map for this…
