Singularity Confinement and Algebraic Integrability
نویسنده
چکیده
Two important notions of integrability for discrete mappings are algebraic integrability and singularity confinement, have been used for discrete mappings. Algebraic integrability is related to the existence of sufficiently many conserved quantities whereas singularity confinement is associated with the local analysis of singularities. In this paper, the relationship between these two notions is explored for birational autonomous mappings. Two types of results are obtained: first, algebraically integrable mappings are shown to have the singularity confinement property. Second, a proof of the non-existence of algebraic conserved quantities of discrete systems based on the lack of confinement property is given.

Blending two discrete integrability criteria : singularity confinement and algebraic entropy
We confront two integrability criteria for rational mappings. The first is the singularity confinement based on the requirement that every singu-larity, spontaneously appearing during the iteration of a mapping, disappear after some steps. The second recently proposed is the algebraic entropy criterion associated to the growth of the degree of the iterates. The algebraic entropy results confirm...
متن کاملHow to detect the integrability of discrete systems
Several integrability tests for discrete equations will be reviewed. All tests considered can be applied directly to a given discrete equation and do not rely on the a priori knowledge of the existence of related structures such as Lax pairs. Specifically, singularity confinement, algebraic entropy, Nevanlinna theory, Diophantine integrability and discrete systems over finite fields will be des...
متن کاملFinite-order solutions and the integrability of difference equations
The existence of sufficiently many finite-order (in the sense of Nevanlinna) mero-morphic solutions of a difference equation appears to be a good indicator of integra-bility. This criterion is used to single out dP II from a natural class of second-order difference equations. The proof given uses an estimate related to singularity confinement. The Painlevé property has been used as a detector o...
متن کاملTropical Geometric Interpretation of Ultradiscrete Singularity Confinement
We present a new interpretation of the ultradiscretization procedure in terms of a non-archimedean valuation on the field of Puiseux series. We shall demonstrate how the new interpretation of the ultradiscretization gives a correspondence between singularity confinement for discrete mappings and ultradiscrete singularity confinement for ultradiscrete mappings using results from tropical geometr...
متن کاملIntegrability conditions for nonautonomous quad-graph equations
This paper presents a systematic investigation of the integrability conditions for nonautonomous quad-graph maps, using the Lax pair approach, the ultra-local singularity confinement criterion and direct construction of conservation laws. We show that the integrability conditions derived from each of the methods are the one and the same, suggesting that there exists a deep connection between th...
