Integrable Noncommutative Equations on Quad-graphs. The Consistency Approach
نویسنده
چکیده
We extend integrable systems on quad-graphs, such as the Hirota equation and the cross-ratio equation, to the non-commutative context, when the fields take values in an arbitrary associative algebra. We demonstrate that the three-dimensional consistency property remains valid in this case. We derive the non-commutative zero curvature representations for these systems, based on the latter property. Quantum systems with their quantum zero curvature representations are particular cases of the general non-commutative ones.

Classification of Integrable Equations on Quad-Graphs. The Consistency Approach
A classification of discrete integrable systems on quad–graphs, i.e. on surface cell decompositions with quadrilateral faces, is given. The notion of integrability laid in the basis of the classification is the three–dimensional consistency. This property yields, among other features, the existence of the discrete zero curvature representation with a spectral parameter. For all integrable syste...
متن کاملCauchy problem for integrable discrete equations on quad-graphs
Initial value problems for the integrable discrete equations on quadgraphs are investigated. We give a geometric criterion of when such a problem is well-posed. In the basic example of the discrete KdV equation an effective integration scheme based on the matrix factorization problem is proposed and the interaction of the solutions with the localized defects in the regular square lattice are di...
متن کاملDiscrete nonlinear hyperbolic equations. Classification of integrable cases
We consider discrete nonlinear hyperbolic equations on quad-graphs, in particular on Z2. The fields are associated to the vertices and an equation Q(x1, x2, x3, x4) = 0 relates four fields at one quad. Integrability of equations is understood as 3Dconsistency. The latter is a possibility to consistently impose equations of the same type on all the faces of a three-dimensional cube. This allows ...
متن کاملde What is integrability of discrete variational systems ?
We propose a notion of a pluri-Lagrangian problem, which should be understood as an analogue of multidimensional consistency for variational systems. This is a development along the line of research of discrete integrable Lagrangian systems initiated in 2009 by Lobb and Nijhoff, however, having its more remote roots in the theory of pluriharmonic functions, in the Z-invariant models of statisti...
