Abstract

This paper presents a non-commutative generalization of the Pfaffian which we call a quasi-Pfaffian. This novel concept arises from solving linear systems with non-commutative skew-symmetric coefficients. A new non-commutative integrable system whose solutions are expressed in terms of these quasi-Pfaffians is presented. Derivative formulae and identities satisfied by these quasi-Pfaffians are presented.
