Lax pair tensors and integrable spacetimes

چکیده

The use of Lax pair tensors as a unifying framework for Killing tensors of arbitrary rank is discussed. Some properties of the tensorial Lax pair formulation are stated. A mechanical system with a wellknown Lax representation – the three-particle open Toda lattice – is geometrized by a suitable canonical transformation. In this way the Toda lattice is realized as the geodesic system of a certain Riemannian geometry. By using different canonical transformations we obtain two inequivalent geometries which both represent the original system. Adding a timelike dimension gives four-dimensional spacetimes which admit two Killing vector fields and are completely integrable.

A Tensorial Lax Pair Equation and Integrable Systems in Relativity and Classical Mechanics * †

It is shown that the Lax pair equation L̇ = [L,A] can be given a neat tensorial interpretation for finite-dimensional quadratic Hamiltonians. The Lax matrices L and A are shown to arise from third rank tensors on the configuration space. The second Lax matrix A is related to a connection which characterizes the Hamiltonian system. The Toda lattice system is used to motivate the definition of the...

Completely integrable sector in 5D Einstein-Maxwell gravity and derivation of the dipole black ring solutions

We consider 5D Einstein-Maxwell (EM) gravity in spacetimes with three commuting Killing vectors: one timelike and two spacelike Killing vectors one of them being hypersurface-orthogonal. Assuming a special ansatz for the Maxwell field we show that the 2-dimensional reduced EM equations are completely integrable by deriving a Lax-pair presentation. We also develop a solution generating method fo...
