In this pedagogical review we introduce systematic approaches to deforming integrable 2-dimensional sigma models. We use the integrable principal chiral model and the conformal Wess-Zumino-Witten model as our starting points and explore…
The equations that define the Lax pairs for generalized principal chiral models can be solved for any constant nondegenerate bilinear form on SU(2). Necessary conditions for the nonconstant metric on SU(2) that define the integrable models…

We study integrability properties of the non-chiral intermediate long wave (ncILW) equation with periodic boundary conditions. The ncILW equation was recently introduced by the authors as a parity-invariant relative of the intermediate long…
These lecture notes are devoted to the integrability of discrete systems and their relation to the theory of Yang-Baxter (YB) maps. Lax pairs play a significant role in the integrability of discrete systems. We introduce the notion of Lax…

We give a short summary of our recent works on the classical integrable structure of two-dimensional non-linear sigma models defined on squashed three-dimensional spheres. There are two descriptions to describe the classical dynamics, 1)…
We review and elaborate on the issue of the dilaton transformation under the usual $r \rightarrow \alpha'/r$ target space duality and its non-static generalization (or $\sigma$-model duality). It is found that the transformation law $r…
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…
We consider a general class of convolution-type nonlocal wave equations modeling bidirectional propagation of nonlinear waves in a continuous medium. In the limit of vanishing nonlocality we study the behavior of solutions to the Cauchy…
We study symmetry properties of the Einstein-Maxwell theory nonminimaly coupled to the dilaton field. We consider a static case with pure electric (magnetic) Maxwell field and show that the resulting system becomes a nonlinear sigma-model…
A method of the formal diagonalization of the discrete linear operator with a parameter is studied. In the case when the operator provides a Lax operator for a nonlinear quad system the formal diagonalization method allows one to describe…
We have performed some explicit calculations of the conservation laws for classical (affine) Toda field theories, and some generalizations of these models. We show that there is a huge class of generalized models which have an infinite set…
Usually, given a continuous-time nonlinear model, a closed form solution for an exact discretization cannot be found explicitly, originating the need of approximating discrete-time models. This note studies the preservation of the Lipschitz…
We study relation between T-duality and integrability. We develop the Hamiltonian formalism for principal chiral model on general group manifold and on its T-dual image. We calculate the Poisson bracket of Lax connections in T-dual model…
It is shown that there exists two inner authomorpism which lead to different form of the sistems equations of integrable hierarchy. We present discrete and Backlund transformation connected with such systems and a general formula for…
A q-discrete version of the two-dimensional Toda molecule equation is proposed through the direct method. Its solution, B\"acklund transformation and Lax pair are discussed. The reduction to the q-discrete cylindrical Toda molecule equation…
We propose a differential difference equation in ${\mathcal R}^1\times {\mathcal Z}^2$ and study it by Hirota's bilinear method. This equation has a singular continuum limit into a system which admits the reduction to the Davey-Stewartson…
In this paper, we study nonlinear integrable equations with three independent variables of the following types: Toda-type lattices, semi-discrete lattices, and fully discrete Hirota-Miwa type models. It is shown that integrable equations of…
We construct local zero curvature representations for non-linear sigma models on homogeneous spaces, defined on a space-time of any dimension, following a recently proposed approach to integrable theories in dimensions higher than two. We…
