Nieto Mariano Santander Foreword The “International Workshop on Symmetries, Special functions and Superintegrability” (S-3) is organized to celebrate the 60th birthday of Professor Mariano del Olmo, an internation- ally recognized expert in many branches of mathematical physics. He has made remarkable contributions in this field since the the beginning of the eighties: quantum groups, coherent states, integrable and superintegrable systems, representations of Lie groups and Lie alge- bras, special functions and other topics that show his wide range of interest. The workshop program is precisely centered around some of these topics in which Ma- riano has been working for many years. It is a pleasure to see that many of his present and former collaborators, either inside Spain or working in other countries, are making an effort to come to Valladolid and share with him this unique occasion.

This is the starting point to the correct quantization in non-linear cases, where the success of Canonical Quantization is not guaranteed. The use of the Poincare-Cartan´ form permits finding both the symplectic structure on the solution manifold, through the Hamilton-Jacobi transformation, and the required symmetries, realized as Hamiltonian vector fields, associated with functions on the solution manifold (thus constituting an inverse of the Noether Theorem) lifted back to the evolution space through the inverse of this Hamilton-Jacobi mapping. We present simple non-trivial examples where the symmetries are found in a perturbative way. Time asymmetric quantum mechanics Arno Bohm The University of Texas at Austin (USA) The meaning of time asymmetry in quantum physics is discussed. On the basis of a mathematical theorem, the Stone-von Neumann theorem, the solutions of the dynamical equations, the Schrodinger¨ equation for states or the Heisenberg equation for observables are given by a unitary group. Dirac kets require the concept of a RHS (rigged Hilbert space) of Schwartz functions; for this kind of RHS a mathematical theorem also leads to time sym- metric group evolution. Scattering theory suggests to distinguish mathematically between states (defined by a preparation apparatus) and observables (defined by a registration appa- ratus (detector)). If one requires that scattering resonances of width Γ and exponentially decaying states of lifetime τ = ~=Γ should be the same physical entities (for which there is sufficient evidence) one is led to a pair of RHS’s of Hardy functions and connected with it, to a semigroup time evolution t0 ≤ t < 1, with the puzzling result that there is a quantum mechanical beginning of time, just like the big bang time for the universe, when it was a quantum system. The decay of quasi-stable particles is used to illustrate this quantum me- chanical time asymmetry. From the analysis of these processes, we show that the properties of rigged Hilbert spaces of Hardy functions are suitable for a formulation of time asymmetry in quantum mechanics. 3 A generalized approach to integrability by quadratures Jose´ F. Carinena˜ Universidad de Zaragoza (Spain) The classical result of Lie on integrability by quadratures will be reviewed and some generalizations will be proposed. After a short review of the classical Lie theorem it will be shown that if we are able to construct in an iterative way a nested sequence of subalgebras Li of vector fields including the dynamical vector field and after some steps the Lie subalgebra is Abelian, then the dynamics is integrable by k−1 quadratures. The theory will be illustrated with examples and an extension of the theorem where the Lie algebras are replaced by some distributions will also be presented. Penning trap in a rotating magnetic field: coherent states approach David J. Fernandez´ CINVESTAV (Mexico)´ The quantum problem of a non-relativistic charged particle subject to the electric and magnetic fields created by an ideal Penning trap plus a magnetic field rotating around the symmetry axis is addressed. The transition to the rotating frame is performed in order to eliminate the initial time-dependence in the Hamiltonian; then a coherent states approach for the resulting time-independent problem is implemented. It is determined the parameters domain for the particle to be in the trap regime. Several physical quantities for the system being in a coherent state are also evaluated. 1 + 1 spectral problems arising from the Manakov-Santini system Pilar G. Estevez´ Universidad de Salamanca (Spain) This talk deals with the spectral problem of the Manakov Santini system. The point Lie symmetries of the Lax pair have been identified. Several similarity reductions arise from these symmetries. An important benefit of our procedure is that the study of the Lax pair instead of the partial differential equations yields the reductions of the eigenfunctions and also the spectral parameter. Therefore, we have obtained five interesting spectral problems in 1 + 1 dimensions. 4 Exceptional orthogonal polynomials David Gomez–Ullate´ Universidad Complutense (Spain) Exceptional orthogonal polynomials are extensions of classical orthogonal polynomials in the sense that they are also eigenfunctions of a Sturm-Liouville problem although the degree sequence has a finite number of gaps (missing degrees). Equivalently, in mathematical physics they appear as eigenfunctions of rational extensions of exactly solvable potentials. It has been conjectured that all exceptional orthogonal polynomials can be obtained through Darboux-Crum transformations of their classical counterparts, and this conjecture has been proved in the Hermite case using the connection between trivial monodromy potentials and Darboux transformations. In this talk we will review some of these recent results and we will mention current open problems. On the planar Demkov wave functions Miguel A. Gonzalez´ Leon´ Universidad de Salamanca (Spain) The quantum spectral problem of diatomic molecular ions, in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, is separable using spheroidal coordinates obtained by rotating the two-dimen- sional elliptic coordinates about the focal axis. Separability allows to split the Schrodinger¨ equation in a system of ODEs consisting in two different Generalized Spheroidal equations for the three dimensional case, and the Razavy equation plus the Whittaker Hill equation in the two dimensional one. Demkov has searched for eigen-wave functions of the Hamiltonian corresponding to the energy levels of a hydrogenoid atom. This procedure lead, for certain values of the nuclear charges, to the construction of “finite” wave functions, the so-called Demkov wave functions. We have already explained this behaviour in terms of the Quasi-Exact Solvability of the underlying equation, the Confluent Heun equation. We present here a complete analysis of the analogous

  • Contact Lax Pairs and Associated (3+ 1)-Dimensional Integrable Dispersionless Systems

We discuss various kinds of Lax representations for such systems, in particular, linear nonisospectral contact Lax pairs and nonlinear contact Lax pairs as well as the relations among the two. Finally, we present a large number of examples with finite and infinite number of dependent variables, as well as the reductions of these examples to lower-dimensional integrable dispersionless systems. 1 Introduction Integrable systems play an important role in modern mathematics and theoretical and mathematical arXiv:1901.05181v1 [nlin.SI] 16 Jan 2019 physics, cf. e.g. [15, 34], and, since according to general relativity our spacetime is four-dimensional, integrable systems in four independent variables ((3+1)D for short; likewise (n+1)D is shorthand for n + 1 independent variables) are particularly interesting. For a long time it appeared that such systems were very difficult to find but in a recent paper by one of us [39] a novel systematic and effective construction for a large new class of integrable (3+1)D systems was introduced.

Here we outline some analytical methods for dealing with a class of nonlinear partial differential equations. We pay special attention to `inverse spectral transform', `Lax pair representation', and `zero-curvature condition' as applied to these equations. We provide a number of interesting exmples to gain some physico-mathematical feeling for the methods presented. PACS numbers: Keywords: Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations, Integrable Systems, Inverse Spectral Method, Lax Pairs, Zero Curvature Condition 1. Introduction Integrable systems are represented by nonlinear partial differential equations (NLPDEs) which, in principle, can be solved by analytic methods. This necessarily implies that the solution of such equations can be constructed using a finite number of algebraic operations and integrations. The inverse scattering method as discovered by Gardner, Greene, Kruskal and Miura [1] represents a very useful tool to analytically solve a class of nonlinear differential equa- tions which support soliton solutions. Solitons are localized waves that propagate without change in their properties (shape, velocity etc.). These waves are stable against mutual collision and retain their identities except for some trivial phase change. Mechanistically, the linear and nonlinear terms in NLPDEs have opposite effects on the wave propagation.

Krishnaswami and T R Vishnu In Part I [1], we introduced the idea of a Lax pair and ex- plained how it could be used to obtain conserved quantities for systems of particles.

  • INVERSE SCATTERING TRANSFORM, Kdv, and SOLITONS
    INVERSE SCATTERING TRANSFORM, KdV, AND SOLITONS Tuncay Aktosun Department of Mathematics and Statistics Mississippi State University Mississippi State, MS 39762, USA Abstract: In this review paper, the Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV) is considered, and it is derived by using the Lax method and the AKNS method. An outline of the inverse scattering problem and of its solution is presented for the associated Schr¨odinger equation on the line. The inverse scattering transform is described to solve the initial-value problem for the KdV, and the time evolution of the corresponding scattering data is obtained. Soliton solutions to the KdV are derived in several ways. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 35Q53, 35Q51, 81U40 Keywords: Korteweg-de Vries equation, inverse scattering transform, soliton Short title: KdV and inverse scattering 1 1. INTRODUCTION The Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV, for short) is used to model propagation of water waves in long, narrow, and shallow canals. It was first formulated [1] in 1895 by the Dutch mathematicians Diederik Johannes Korteweg and Gustav de Vries. Korteweg was a well known mathematician of his time, and de Vries wrote a doctoral thesis on the subject under Korteweg. After some scaling, it is customary to write the KdV in the form @u @u @3u 6u + = 0; x R; t > 0; (1.1) @t − @x @x3 2 where u(x; t) corresponds to the vertical displacement of the water from the equilibrium − at the location x at time t: Replacing u by u amounts to replacing 6 by +6 in (1.1). − − Also, by scaling x; t; and u; i.e.

The overlap coefficients of the eigenfunctions of L and the standard basis are given in terms of orthogonal polynomials and orthogonal functions. Eigenfunctions for the operator L for a Lax pair for sl(d + 1, C) is studied in certain representations. Keywords Special functions · Orthogonal polynomials · Toda lattice Mathematics Subject Classification 33C80 · 37K10 · 17B80 1 Introduction The link of the Toda lattice to three-term recurrence relations via the Lax pair after the Flaschka coordinate transform is well understood, see e.g. [2,27]. We consider a Lax pair in a specific Lie algebra, such that in irreducible ∗-representations the Lax operator is a Jacobi operator. A Lax pair is a pair of time-dependent matrices or operators L(t) and M(t) satisfying the Lax equation L˙ (t) =[M(t), L(t)], where [ , ] is the commutator and the dot represents differentiation with respect to time. The Lax operator L is isospectral, i.e. the spectrum of L is independent of time. A famous example is the Lax pair for the Toda chain in which L is a self-adjoint Jacobi operator, B Erik Koelink [email protected] Wolter Groenevelt [email protected] 1 Delft Institute of Applied Mathematics, Delft University of Technology, P.O.

  • N-Soliton Solutions for the NLS-Like Equation and Perturbation Theory Based on the Riemann–Hilbert Problem
    S S symmetry Article N-Soliton Solutions for the NLS-Like Equation and Perturbation Theory Based on the Riemann–Hilbert Problem Yuxin Lin, Huanhe Dong and Yong Fang * College of Mathematics and Systems Science, Shandong University of Science and Technology, Qingdao 266590, China; [email protected] (Y.L.); [email protected] (H.D.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-532-80698087 Received: 6 June 2019; Accepted: 20 June 2019; Published: 22 June 2019 Abstract: In this paper, a kind of nonlinear Schro¨dinger (NLS) equation, called an NLS-like equation, is Riemann–Hilbert investigated. We construct a 2 × 2 Lax pair associated with the NLS equation and combine the spectral analysis to formulate the Riemann–Hilbert (R–H) problem. Then, we mainly use the symmetry relationship of potential matrix Q to analyze the zeros of det P+ and det P−; the N-soliton solutions of the NLS-like equation are expressed explicitly by a particular R–H problem with an unit jump matrix. In addition, the single-soliton solution and collisions of two solitons are analyzed, and the dynamic behaviors of the single-soliton solution and two-soliton solutions are shown graphically. Furthermore, on the basis of the R–H problem, the evolution equation of the R–H data with the perturbation is derived. Keywords: NLS-like equation; Riemann–Hilbert problem; symmetry; N-soliton solutions; R–H data 1. Introduction It is known that soliton theory plays an important role in many fields. There are many methods to study soliton equations, of which the inverse scattering method [1–3] and the Riemann–Hilbert (R–H) method [4–7] are two important techniques.

  • Arxiv:1909.10119V3 [Nlin.SI] 6 Aug 2020 Reduction, This Subset Is the Whole Real Line
    Real Lax spectrum implies spectral stability Jeremy Upsal and Bernard Deconinck Department of Applied Mathematics, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195, USA August 7, 2020 Abstract We consider the dynamical stability of periodic and quasiperiodic stationary solutions of integrable equations with 2×2 Lax pairs. We construct the eigenfunctions and hence the Floquet discriminant for such Lax pairs. The boundedness of the eigenfunctions determines the Lax spectrum. We use the squared eigenfunction connection between the Lax spectrum and the stability spectrum to show that the subset of the real line that gives rise to stable eigenvalues is contained in the Lax spectrum. For non-self-adjoint members of the AKNS hierarchy admitting a common reduction, the real line is always part of the Lax spectrum and it maps to stable eigenvalues of the stability problem. We demonstrate our methods work for a variety of examples, both in and not in the AKNS hierarchy. 1 Introduction A surprisingly large number equations of physical significance are integrable and possess a Lax pair [2, 3]. An important feature of equations with a Lax pair is the Lax spectrum: the set of all Lax parameter values for which the solution of the Lax pair is bounded. For our purposes, this is important for determining the stability of solutions of a given integrable equation [6, 7, 8, 12, 14, 16, 17, 18, 21, 33, 36]. Until recently, the Lax spectrum has only been determined explicitly for decaying potentials on the whole line or for self-adjoint problems with periodic coefficients. For such problems, the Floquet discriminant [1, 8, 20, 21, 26, 33] is a useful tool for numerically computing and giving a qualitative description of the Lax spectrum, but it is not used generally to get an explicit description of the Lax spectrum.

A description of Lax representations is given in terms of vector space decomposition of loop algebras into direct sum of Taylor series and a comple- mentary subalgebras. Examples of complementary subalgebras and corresponding integrable models are presented. In the framework of the bi-Hamiltonian approach compatible associative algebras related affine Dynkin diagrams are considered.
