2 00 3 Conformal geometry of the ( discrete ) Schwarzian Davey - Stewartson II hierarchy
نویسندگان
چکیده
The conformal geometry of the Schwarzian Davey-Stewartson II hierarchy and its discrete analogue is investigated. Connections with discrete and continuous isothermic surfaces and generalised Clifford configurations are recorded. An interpretation of the Schwarzian Davey-Stewartson II flows as integrable deformations of conformally immersed surfaces is given.

It is shown that the integrable discrete Schwarzian KP (dSKP) equation which constitutes an algebraic superposition formula associated with, for instance, the Schwarzian KP hierarchy, the classical Darboux transformation and quasi-conformal mappings encapsulates nothing but a fundamental theorem of ancient Greek geometry. Thus, it is demonstrated that the connection with Menelaus' theorem and, ...

متن کامل‘the Quaternionic Kp Hierarchy and Conformally Immersed 2-tori in the 4-sphere’
The quaternionic KP hierarchy is the integrable hierarchy of p.d.e obtained by replacing the complex numbers with the quaternions in the standard construction of the KP hierarchy and its solutions; it is equivalent to what is often called the Davey-Stewartson II hierarchy. This article studies its relationship with the theory of conformally immersed tori in the 4-sphere via quaternionic holomor...
متن کاملThe Davey-Stewartson system and the Bäcklund Transformations
We consider the (coupled) Davey-Stewartson (DS) system and its Bäcklund transformations (BT). Relations among the Davey-Stewartson system, the double KadomtsevPetviashvili (KP) system and the Ablowitz-Ladik hierarchy (ALH) are established. The DS hierarchy and the double KP system are equivalent. The ALH is the BT of the DS system in a certain reduction. From the BT of coupled DS system we can ...

A remarkable connection between soliton theory and an important and beautiful branch of the theory of graphical statics developed by Maxwell and his contemporaries is revealed. Thus, it is demonstrated that reciprocal triangles which constitute the simplest pair of reciprocal figures representing both a framework and a self-stress encapsulate the integrable discrete BKP equation and its Schwarz...
