A Lax Representation for the Born-Infeld Equation
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the Born-Infeld equation from a Lagrangian point of view emphasizing the duality symmetry present in such systems. We obtain the Hamiltonian formulation directly from the Lagrangian. We also show that this system admits a dispersionless nonstandard Lax representation which directly leads to all the conserved charges (including the ones not previously obtained). We also present the generating function for these charges and point out various other properties of this system. ∗e-mail address:[email protected]

In this article, we present a fermionic extension of the scalar Born-Infeld equation, which has been derived from the Nambu-Goto superstring action in (2 + 1) dimensions through the Cartesian parameterization. It is demonstrated that in the relativistic limit where c → ∞, the fermionic Born-Infeld model reduces to the supersymmertic Chaplygin gas model in one spatial dimension. However, the sup...
