چکیده
A hodograph transformation for a wide family of multidimensional nonlinear partial differential equations is presented. It is used to derive solutions of the heavenly equation (dispersionless Toda equation) as well as a family of explicit ultra-hyperbolic selfdual vacuum spaces admiting only one Killing vector which is not selfdual, we also give the corresponding explicit Einstein–Weyl structures.

2 4 Se p 20 02 On the Whitham Hierarchies : Reductions and Hodograph Solutions ∗
A general scheme for analyzing reductions of Whitham hierarchies is presented. It is based on a method for determining the S-function by means of a system of first order partial differential equations. Compatibility systems of differential equations characterizing both reductions and hodograph solutions of Whitham hierarchies are obtained. The method is illustrated by exhibiting solutions of in...
متن کاملSe p 20 02 Einstein – Weyl spaces and dispersionless Kadomtsev – Petviashvili equation from Painlevé I and II .
We present two constructions of new solutions to the dispersionless KP (dKP) equation arising from the first two Painlevé transcendents. The first construction is a hodograph transformation based on Einstein–Weyl geometry, the generalised Nahm's equation and the isomonodromy problem. The second construction, motivated by the first, is a direct characterisation of solutions to dKP which are cons...
متن کاملIntegrable dispersionless KdV hierarchy with sources
An integrable dispersionless KdV hierarchy with sources (dKdVHWS) is derived. Lax pair equations and bi-Hamiltonian formulation for dKdVHWS are formulated. Hodograph solution for the dispersionless KdV equation with sources (dKdVWS) is obtained via hodograph transformation. Furthermore, the dispersionless Gelfand-Dickey hierarchy with sources (dGDHWS) is presented. PACS number: 02. 03. Ik

We extend our method of partner symmetries to the hyperbolic complex Monge-Ampère equation and the second heavenly equation of Plebañski. We show the existence of partner symmetries and derive the relations between them for both equations. For certain simple choices of partner symmetries the resulting differential constraints together with the original heavenly equations are transformed to syst...
