چکیده
We are looking for the universal covering algebra for all symmetries of a given pde, using the sine-Gordon equation as a typical example for a non-evolution equation. For non-evolution equations, Estabrook-Wahlquist prolongation structures for non-local symmetries depend on the choice of a specific sub-ideal, of the contact module, to define the pde. For each inequivalent such choice we determine the most general solution of the prolongation equations, as sub-algebras of the (infinite-dimensional) algebra of all vector fields over the space of non-local variables associated with the pde, in the style of Vinogradov covering spaces. We show explicitly how previously-known prolongation structures, known to lie within the Kac-Moody algebra, A (1) 1 , are special cases of these general solutions, although we are unable to identify the most general solutions with previously-studied algebras. We show the existence of gauge transformations between prolongation structures, viewed as determining connections over the solution space, and use these to relate (otherwise) distinct algebras. Faithful realizations of the universal algebra allow integral representations of the prolongation structure, opening up interesting connections with algebras of Toeplitz operators over Banach spaces, an area that has only begun to be explored.

Estabrook-Wahlquist Prolongations and Infinite-Dimensional Algebras
I. Estabrook-Wahlquist Prolongations and Zero-Curvature Requirements Motivated by a desire to find new solutions of physically-interesting partial differential equations, we think of a k-th order pde as a variety, Y , of a finite jet bundle, J (M, N), with M the independentand N the dependent-variables for the pde. From this geometric approach, we can look for point symmetries, contact symmetri...
متن کاملGeneralized Landau-lifshitz Systems and Lie Algebras Associated with Higher Genus Curves
The Wahlquist-Estabrook prolongation method allows to obtain for some PDEs a Lie algebra that is responsible for Lax pairs and Bäcklund transformations of certain type. We study the Wahlquist-Estabrook algebra of the n-dimensional generalization of the Landau-Lifshitz equation and construct an epimorphism from this algebra onto an infinite-dimensional quasigraded Lie algebra L(n) of certain mat...

The Estabrook-Wahlquist prolongation method is applied to the (compact and noncompact) continuous isotropic Heisenberg model in 1 + 1 dimensions. Using a special realization (an algebra of the Kac-Moody type) of the arising incomplete prolongation Lie algebra, a whole family of nonlinear field equations containing the original Heisenberg system is generated. 1 1. In the study of nonlinear field...

In this paper, we are interested to study the Sine-Gordon equation in generalized functions theory introduced by Colombeau, in the first we give result of existence and uniqueness of generalized solution with initial data are distributions (elements of the Colombeau algebra). Then we study the association concept with the classical solution.

Within the Hartree-Fock approximation the ground state of the composite fermion metal is found. We observe that the single-particle energy spectrum is dominated by the logarithmic interaction exchange term which leads to an infinite jump of the singleparticle energy at the Fermi momentum. It is shown that the Hartree-Fock result brings no corrections to the RPA Fermi velocity.
