In this article it is shown that the study of harmonic diffeomorphisms, with nonvanishing Hopf differential, reduces to the study of the Beltrami equation of a certain type: the imaginary part of the logarithm of the Beltrami function…
We introduce hierarchies of difference equations (referred to as $nT$-systems) associated to the action of a (centrally extended, completed) infinite matrix group $GL_{\infty}^{(n)}$ on $n$-component fermionic Fock space. The solutions are…
We present the q-deformed multivariate hypergeometric functions related to Schur polynomials as tau-functions of the KP and of the two-dimensional Toda lattice hierarchies. The variables of the hypergeometric functions are the higher times…
We show that the dispersionless limits of the Pfaff-KP (also known as the DKP or Pfaff lattice) and the Pfaff-Toda hierarchies admit a reformulation through elliptic functions. In the elliptic form they look like natural elliptic…
We consider the scaling solutions of Smoluchowski's equation of irreversible aggregation, for a non gelling collision kernel. The scaling mass distribution f(s) diverges as s^{-tau} when s->0. tau is non trivial and could, until now, only…
Recently, there has been an examination of the nonexponential relaxation profiles of the NMR signal. The exponential relaxation from Bloch-Torrey equations with constant diffusion coefficients are known to be an approximation, and research…
In this paper, we prove the existence of tau functions of the discrete modified KP hierarchy and define the squared eigenfunction symmetry. Meanwhile, the Fay identity with its difference form, the squared eigenfunction potentials and the…
In this article, we classify the solutions of the dispersionless Toda hierarchy into degenerate and non-degenerate cases. We show that every non-degenerate solution is determined by a function $\mathcal{H}(z_1,z_2)$ of two variables. We…
We prove nonlinear modulational instability for both periodic and localized perturbations of periodic traveling waves for several dispersive PDEs, including the KDV type equations (e.g. the Whitham equation, the generalized KDV equation,…
We continue the study of the B-Toda hierarchy (the Toda lattice with the constraint of type B) which can be regarded as a discretization of the BKP hierarchy. We introduce the tau-function of the B-Toda hierarchy and obtain the bilinear…
We consider the identification of nonlinear diffusion coefficients of the form $a(t,u)$ or $a(u)$ in quasi-linear parabolic and elliptic equations. Uniqueness for this inverse problem is established under very general assumptions using…
In this paper, the gauge transformation of the constrained semi-discrete KP(cdKP) hierarchy is constructed explicitly by the suitable choice of the generating functions. Under the $m$-step successive gauge transformation $T_m$, we give the…
Let $r\geq 2$ be an integer. The generalized BGW tau-function for the Gelfand--Dickey hierarchy of $(r-1)$ dependent variables (aka the $r$-reduced KP hierarchy) is defined as a particular tau-function that depends on $(r-1)$ constant…
The differential systems satisfied by orthogonal polynomials with arbitrary semiclassical measures supported on contours in the complex plane are derived, as well as the compatible systems of deformation equations obtained from varying such…
There are well-known constructions of integrable systems which are chains of infinitely many copies of the equations of the KP hierarchy ``glued'' together with some additional variables, e.g., the modified KP hierarchy. Another…
We introduce a new integrable hierarchy of nonlinear differential-difference equations which we call constrained Toda hierarchy (C-Toda). It can be regarded as a certain subhierarchy of the 2D Toda lattice obtained by imposing the…
We study the expansion coefficients of the tau function of the KP hierarchy. If the tau function does not vanish at the origin, it is known that the coefficients are given by Giambelli formula and that it characterizes solutions of the KP…
We study the tau function of the KP-hierarchy associated with an (n,1) curve $y^n=x-\alpha$. If $\alpha=0$ the corresponding tau function is 1. On the other hand if $\alpha\neq 0$ the tau function becomes the exponential of a quadratic…
The tau-function formalism for a class of generalized ``zero-curvature'' integrable hierarchies of partial differential equations, is constructed. The class includes the Drinfel'd-Sokolov hierarchies. A direct relation between the variables…
We present a nonvariational setting for the Neumann problem for harmonic functions that are H\"{o}lder continuous and that may have infinite Dirichlet integral. Then we introduce a space of distributions on the boundary (a space of first…
