A Miura chain is a (closed) sequence of differential (or difference) equations that are related by Miura or B\"acklund transformations. We describe such a chain for the sixth Painlev\'e equation (\pvi), containing, apart from \pvi itself, a Schwarzian version as well as a second-order second-degree ordinary differential equation (ODE). As a byproduct we derive an auto-B\"acklund transformation, relating two copies of \pvi with different parameters. We also establish the analogous ordinary difference equations in the discrete counterpart of the chain. Such difference equations govern iterations of solutions of \pvi under B\"acklund transformations. Both discrete and continuous equations constitute a larger system which include partial difference equations, differential-difference equations and partial differential equations, all associated with the lattice Korteweg-de Vries equation subject to similarity constraints.

We investigate some classical evolution model in the discrete 2+1 space-time. A map, giving an one-step time evolution, may be derived as the compatibility condition for some systems of linear equations for a set of auxiliary linear variables. Dynamical variables for the evolution model are the coefficients of these systems of linear equations. Determinant of any system of linear equations is a polynomial of two numerical quasimomenta of the auxiliary linear variables. For one, this determinant is the generating functions of all integrals of motion for the evolution, and on the other hand it defines a high genus algebraic curve. The dependence of the dynamical variables on the space-time point (exact solution) may be expressed in terms of theta functions on the jacobian of this curve. This is the main result of our paper.

We consider some natural connections which arise between right-flat (p, q) paraconformal structures and integrable systems. We find that such systems may be formulated in Lax form, with a "Lax p-tuple" of linear differential operators, depending a spectral parameter which lives in (q-1)-dimensional complex projective space. Generally, the differential operators contain partial derivatives with respect to the spectral parameter.

We include the relativistic lattice KP hierarchy, introduced by Gibbons and Kupershmidt, into the $r$-matrix framework. An $r$-matrix account of the nonrelativistic lattice KP hierarchy is also provided for the reader's convenience. All relativistic constructions are regular one-parameter perturbations of the nonrelativistic ones. We derive in a simple way the linear Hamiltonian structure of the relativistic lattice KP, and find for the first time its quadratic Hamiltonian structure. Amasingly, the latter turns out to coincide with its nonrelativistic counterpart (a phenomenon, known previously only for the simplest case of the relativistic Toda lattice).

It is shown that the factorization relation on simple Lie groups with standard Poisson Lie structure restricted to Coxeter symplectic leaves gives an integrable dynamical system. This system can be regarded as a discretization of the Toda flow. In case of $SL_n$ the integrals of the factorization dynamics are integrals of the relativistic Toda system. A substantial part of the paper is devoted to the study of symplectic leaves in simple complex Lie groups, its Borel subgroups and their doubles.

Skew orthogonal polynomials arise in the calculation of the $n$-point distribution function for the eigenvalues of ensembles of random matrices with orthogonal or symplectic symmetry. In particular, the distribution functions are completely determined by a certain sum involving the skew orthogonal polynomials. In the cases that the eigenvalue probability density function involves a classical weight function, explicit formulas for the skew orthogonal polynomials are given in terms of related orthogonal polynomials, and the structure is used to give a closed form expression for the sum. This theory treates all classical cases on an equal footing, giving formulas applicable at once to the Hermite, Laguerre and Jacobi cases.

Existence of a new class of soliton solutions is shown for higher order nonlinear Schrodinger equation, describing thrid order dispersion, Kerr effect and stimulated Raman scattering. These new solutions have been obtaiened by invoking a group of nonlinear transformations acting on localised stable solutions. Stability of these solutions has been studied for different values of the arbitrary coefficients, involved in the recursion relation and consequently, different values of coefficient lead to different transmission rates for almost same input power. Another series solution containing even powers of localised stable solution is shown to exist for higher order nonlinear Schrodinger equation.

A N=4 supersymmetric matrix KP hierarchy is proposed and a wide class of its reductions which are characterized by a finite number of fields are described. This class includes the one-dimensional reduction of the two-dimensional N=(2|2) superconformal Toda lattice hierarchy possessing the N=4 supersymmetry -- the N=4 Toda chain hierarchy -- which may be relevant in the construction of supersymmetric matrix models. The Lax pair representations of the bosonic and fermionic flows, corresponding local and nonlocal Hamiltonians, finite and infinite discrete symmetries, the first two Hamiltonian structures and the recursion operator connecting all evolution equations and the Hamiltonian structures of the N=4 Toda chain hierarchy are constructed in explicit form. Its secondary reduction to the N=2 supersymmetric alpha=-2 KdV hierarchy is discussed.

These give new types of the integrable coupled NLS equations with certain additional terms. Then, the exact solutions of the new types are obtained. We find that the solution of these new types do not always produce a soliton solution even they are the kind of the integrable NLS equations.

Also considered are the $k$-point distributions for the decimated orthogonal ensembles.

We provide an elementary approach to integrable systems associated with hyperelliptic curves of infinite genus. In particular, we explore the extent to which the classical Burchnall-Chaundy theory generalizes in the infinite genus limit, and systematically study the effect of Darboux transformations for the KdV hierarchy on such infinite genus curves. Our approach applies to complex-valued periodic solutions of the KdV hierarchy and naturally identifies the Riemann surface familiar from standard Floquet theoretic considerations with a limit of Burchnall-Chaundy curves.

A new (scalar) spectral decomposition is found for the Dirac system in two dimensions associated to the focusing Davey--Stewartson II (DSII) equation. Discrete spectrum in the spectral problem corresponds to eigenvalues embedded into a two-dimensional essential spectrum. We show that these embedded eigenvalues are structurally unstable under small variations of the initial data. This instability leads to the decay of localized initial data into continuous wave packets prescribed by the nonlinear dynamics of the DSII equation.

We present a detailed study of the geometric and algebraic properties of the multidimensional quadrilateral lattice (a lattice whose elementary quadrilaterals are planar; the discrete analogue of a conjugate net) and of its basic reductions. To make this study, we introduce the notions of forward and backward data, which allow us to give a geometric meaning to the tau-function of the lattice, defined as the potential connecting these data. Together with the known circular lattice (a lattice whose elementary quadrilaterals can be inscribed in circles; the discrete analogue of an orthogonal conjugate net) we introduce and study two other basic reductions of the quadrilateral lattice: the symmetric lattice, for which the forward and backward data coincide, and the D-invariant lattice, characterized by the invariance of a certain natural frame along the main diagonal. We finally discuss the Egorov lattice, which is, at the same time, symmetric, circular and D-invariant. The integrability properties of all these lattices are established using geometric, algebraic and analytic means; in particular we present a D-bar formalism to construct large classes of such lattices. We also discuss quadrilateral hyperplane lattices and the interplay between quadrilateral point and hyperplane lattices in all the above reductions.

We review recent results on Integrable Discrete Geometry. It turns out that most of the known (continuous and/or discrete) integrable systems are particular symmetries of the quadrilateral lattice, a multidimensional lattice characterized by the planarity of its elementary quadrilaterals. Therefore the linear property of planarity seems to be a basic geometric property underlying integrability. We present the geometric meaning of its tau-function, as the potential connecting its forward and backward data. We present the theory of transformations of the quadrilateral lattice, which is based on the discrete analogue of the theory of rectilinear congruences. In particular, we discuss the discrete analogues of the Laplace, Combescure, Levy, radial and fundamental transformations and their interrelations. We also show how the sequence of Laplace transformations of a quadrilateral surface is described by the discrete Toda system. We finally show that these classical transformations are strictly related to the basic operators associated with the quantum field theoretical formulation of the multicomponent Kadomtsev-Petviashvilii hierarchy. We review the properties of quadrilateral hyperplane lattices, which play an interesting role in the reduction theory, when the introduction of additional geometric structures allows to establish a connection between point and hyperplane lattices. We present and fully characterize some geometrically distinguished reductions of the quadrilateral lattice, like the symmetric, circular and Egorov lattices; we review also basic geometric results of the theory of quadrilateral lattices in quadrics, and the corresponding analogue of the Ribaucour reduction of the fundamental transformation.

A spectral mapping theorem is proved that resolves a key problem in applying invariant manifold theorems to nonlinear Schr\" odinger type equations. The theorem is applied to the operator that arises as the linearization of the equation around a standing wave solution. We cast the problem in the context of space-dependent nonlinearities that arise in optical waveguide problems. The result is, however, more generally applicable including to equations in higher dimensions and even systems. The consequence is that stable, unstable, and center manifolds exist in the neighborhood of a (stable or unstable) standing wave, such as a waveguide mode, under simple and commonly verifiable spectral conditions.

In the framework of quantum groups and additive R-matrices, the fusion procedure allows to construct higher-dimensional solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. These solutions lead to integrable one-dimensional spin-chain Hamiltonians. Here fusion is shown to generalize naturally to non-additive R-matrices, which therefore do not have a quantum group symmetry. This method is then applied to the generalized Hubbard models. Although the resulting integrable models are not as simple as the starting ones, the general structure is that of two spin-(s times s') sl(2) models coupled at the free-fermion point. An important issue is the probable lack of regular points which give local Hamiltonians. This problem is related to the existence of second order zeroes in the unitarity equation, and arises for the XX models of higher spins, the building blocks of the Hubbard models. A possible connection between some Lax operators L and R-matrices is noted.

For the integrable case of the discrete self-trapping (DST) model we construct a Backlund transformation. The dual Lax matrix and the corresponding dual Backlund transformation are also found and studied. The quantum analog of the Backlund transformation (Q-operator) is constructed as the trace of a monodromy matrix with an infinite-dimensional auxiliary space. We present the Q-operator as an explicit integral operator as well as describe its action on the monomial basis. As a result we obtain a family of integral equations for multivariable polynomial eigenfunctions of the quantum integrable DST model. These eigenfunctions are special functions of the Heun class which is beyond the hypergeometric class. The found integral equations are new and they shall provide a basis for efficient analytical and numerical studies of such complicated functions.

We choose existence of hierarchies of first integrals and/or symmetries as a criterion for integrability and justify it by examples. Using our componentless approach we have solved a number of classification problems for integrable equations on free associative algebras. Also, in the simplest case, we have listed all possible Hamiltonian operators of low order.

A coupled AKNS-Kaup-Newell hierarchy of systems of soliton equations is proposed in terms of hereditary symmetry operators resulted from Hamiltonian pairs. Zero curvature representations and tri-Hamiltonian structures are established for all coupled AKNS-Kaup-Newell systems in the hierarchy. Therefore all systems have infinitely many commuting symmetries and conservation laws. Two reductions of the systems lead to the AKNS hierarchy and the Kaup-Newell hierarchy, and thus those two soliton hierarchies also possess tri-Hamiltonian structures.

The motion of a rigid body in a quadratic potential is an important example of an integrable Hamiltonian system on a dual to a semidirect product Lie algebra so(n) x Symm(n). We give a Lagrangian derivation of the corresponding equations of motion, and introduce a discrete time analog of this system. The construction is based on the discrete time Lagrangian mechanics on Lie groups, accompanied with the discrete time Lagrangian reduction. The resulting multi-valued map (correspondence) on the dual to so(n) x Symm(n) is Poisson with respect to the Lie-Poisson bracket, and is also completely integrable. We find a Lax representation based on matrix factorisations, in the spirit of Veselov-Moser.

Then, $m_\iy(t,-t)$ is skew-symmetric, and so the determinants of the successive "upper-left corners" vanish or are squares of Pfaffians. In this paper, we investigate the rich nature of these Pfaffians, as functions of t. This problem is motivated by questions concerning the spectrum of symmetric and symplectic random matrix ensembles.

The asymptotic lattices and their transformations are studied within the line geometry approach. It is shown that the discrete asymptotic nets are represented by isotropic congruences in the Plucker quadric. On the basis of the Lelieuvre-type representation of asymptotic lattices and of the discrete analog of the Moutard transformation, it is constructed the discrete analog of the W-congruences, which provide the Darboux-Backlund type transformation of asymptotic lattices.The permutability theorems for the discrete Moutard transformation and for the corresponding transformation of asymptotic lattices are established as well. Moreover, it is proven that the discrete W-congruences are represented by quadrilateral lattices in the quadric of Plucker. These results generalize to a discrete level the classical line-geometric approach to asymptotic nets and W-congruences, and incorporate the theory of asymptotic lattices into more general theory of quadrilateral lattices and their reductions.

Second, we prove that there is a Lie-B\"acklund transformation interpolating between Liouville and sine-Gordon. Third, we use isometric immersions into the Lobachevskian plane to describe sine-Gordon N-solitons explicitly.

We propose a compact and explicit expression for the solutions of the complex Toda chains related to the classical series of simple Lie algebras g. The solutions are parametrized by a minimal set of scattering data for the corresponding Lax matrix. They are expressed as sums over the weight systems of the fundamental representations of g and are explicitly covariant under the corresponding Weyl group action. In deriving these results we start from the Moser formula for the A_r series and obtain the results for the other classical series of Lie algebras by imposing appropriate involutions on the scattering data. Thus we also show how Moser's solution goes into the one of Olshanetsky and Perelomov. The results for the large-time asymptotics of the A_r -CTC solutions are extended to the other classical series B_r - D_r. We exhibit also some `irregular' solutions for the D_{2n+1} algebras whose asymptotic regimes at t ->\pm\infty are qualitatively different. Interesting examples of bounded and periodic solutions are presented and the relations between the solutions for the algebras D_4, B_3 and G_2 $ are analyzed.

Systems of Newton equations of the form $\ddot{q}=-{1/2}A^{-1}(q)\nabla k$ with an integral of motion quadratic in velocities are studied. These equations generalize the potential case (when A=I, the identity matrix) and they admit a curious quasi-Lagrangian formulation which differs from the standard Lagrange equations by the plus sign between terms. A theory of such quasi-Lagrangian Newton (qLN) systems having two functionally independent integrals of motion is developed with focus on two-dimensional systems. Such systems admit a bi-Hamiltonian formulation and are proved to be completely integrable by embedding into five-dimensional integrable systems. They are characterized by a linear, second-order PDE which we call the fundamental equation. Fundamental equations are classified through linear pencils of matrices associated with qLN systems. The theory is illustrated by two classes of systems: separable potential systems and driven systems. New separation variables for driven systems are found. These variables are based on sets of non-confocal conics. An effective criterion for existence of a qLN formulation of a given system is formulated and applied to dynamical systems of the Henon-Heiles type.

We use the Calogero equation to illustrate the following two aspects of the Painleve analysis of nonlinear PDEs. First, if a nonlinear equation passes the Painleve test for integrability, the singular expansions of its solutions around characteristic hypersurfaces can be neither single-valued functions of independent variables nor single-valued functionals of data. Second, if the truncation of singular expansions of solutions is consistent, the truncation not necessarily leads to the simplest, or elementary, auto-Backlund transformation related to the Lax pair.

By proper choice of the step of the discretization the period of oscillations of a soliton in the discrete model can be made equal to an integer number of periods of oscillations in the underline continuous-time lattice.

Multi scales method is used to analyze a nonlinear differential-difference equation. In order $\epsilon^3$ the NLS equation is found to determine the space-time evolution of the leading amplitude. In the next order this has to satisfy a complex mKdV equation (the next in the NLS hierarchy) in order to eliminate secular terms. The zero dispersion point case is also analyzed and the relevant equation is a modified NLS equation with a third order derivative term included

We examine the validity of the results obtained with the singularity confinement integrability criterion in the case of discrete Painlev\'e equations. The method used is based on the requirement of non-exponential growth of the homogeneous degree of the iterate of the mapping. We show that when we start from an integrable autonomous mapping and deautonomise it using singularity confinement the degrees of growth of the nonautonomous mapping and of the autonomous one are identical. Thus this low-growth based approach is compatible with the integrability of the results obtained through singularity confinement. The origin of the singularity confinement property and its necessary character for integrability are also analysed.

Two dimensional classical integrable systems and different integrable deformations for them are derived from phase space realizations of classical $sl(2)$ Poisson coalgebras and their $q-$deformed analogues. Generalizations of Morse, oscillator and centrifugal potentials are obtained. The N=2 Calogero system is shown to be $sl(2)$ coalgebra invariant and the well-known Jordan-Schwinger realization can be also derived from a (non-coassociative) coproduct on $sl(2)$. The Gaudin Hamiltonian associated to such Jordan-Schwinger construction is presented. Through these examples, it can be clearly appreciated how the coalgebra symmetry of a hamiltonian system allows a straightforward construction of different integrable deformations for it.

Schlesinger transformations are discrete monodromy preserving symmetry transformations of the classical Schlesinger system. Generalizing well-known results from the Riemann sphere we construct these transformations for isomonodromic deformations on genus one Riemann surfaces.

We consider the $m$-phase Whitham's averaging method and propose a procedure of "averaging" of non-local Hamiltonian structures. The procedure is based on the existence of a sufficient number of local commuting integrals of a system and gives a Poisson bracket of Ferapontov type for the Whitham's system. The method can be considered as a generalization of the Dubrovin-Novikov procedure for the local field-theoretical brackets.

We consider dynamical systems depending on one or more real parameters, and assuming that, for some ``critical'' value of the parameters, the eigenvalues of the linear part are resonant, we discuss the existence -- under suitable hypotheses -- of a general class of bifurcating solutions in correspondence to this resonance. These bifurcating solutions include, as particular cases, the usual stationary and Hopf bifurcations. The main idea is to transform the given dynamical system into normal form (in the sense of Poincar\'e-Dulac), and to impose that the normalizing transformation is convergent, using the convergence conditions in the form given by A. Bruno. Some specially interesting situations, including the cases of multiple-periodic solutions, and of degenerate eigenvalues in the presence of symmetry, are also discussed with some detail.

Explicit expressions for all the associated integrals of motion are given, and the long-range nature of the interactions introduced by the deformation is shown to be linked to the underlying coalgebra structure. Separability and superintegrability properties of such systems are analysed, and their connection with classical angular momentum chains is used to construct a non-standard integrable deformation of the XXX hyperbolic Gaudin system.

It is demonstrated that the first of them possesses a global N=4 supersymmetry, while the other two admit a twisted N=4 supersymmetry. A new superfield basis in which supersymmetry transformations are local is discussed and a manifest N=4 supersymmetric representation of the N=4 Toda chain in terms of a chiral and an anti-chiral N=4 superfield is constructed. Its relation to the complex N=4 supersymmetric KdV hierarchy is established. Darboux-Backlund symmetries and a new real form of this last hierarchy possessing a twisted N=4 supersymmetry are derived.

Binary constrained flows of soliton equations admitting $2\times 2$ Lax matrices have 2N degrees of freedom, which is twice as many as degrees of freedom in the case of mono-constrained flows. For their separation of variables only N pairs of canonical separated variables can be introduced via their Lax matrices by using the normal method. A new method to introduce the other N pairs of canonical separated variables and additional separated equations is proposed. The Jacobi inversion problems for binary constrained flows are established. Finally, the factorization of soliton equations by two commuting binary constrained flows and the separability of binary constrained flows enable us to construct the Jacobi inversion problems for some soliton hierarchies.

The usual propetry of s<-->t duality for scattering amplitudes, e.g. for Veneziano amplitude, is deeply connected with the 2-dimensional geometry. In particular, a simple geometric construction of such amplitudes was proposed in a joint work by this author and S.Saito (solv-int/9812016). Here we propose analogs of one of those amplitudes associated with multidimensional euclidean spaces, paying most attention to the 3-dimensional case. Our results can be regarded as a variant of "Regge calculus" intimately connected with ideas of the theory of integrable models.

The local Sugawara constructions of the "small" N=4 SCA in terms of supercurrents of N=2 extensions of the affinization of the sl(2|1) and sl(3) algebras are investigated. The associated super mKdV type hierarchies induced by N=4 SKdV ones are defined. In the sl(3) case the existence of two inequivalent Sugawara constructions is found. The long one involves all the affine sl(3)-valued currents, while the "short" one deals only with those from the subalgebra sl(2)\oplus u(1). As a consequence, the sl(3)-valued affine superfields carry two inequivalent mKdV type super hierarchies induced by the correspondence between "small" N=4 SCA and N=4 SKdV hierarchy. However, only the first hierarchy posseses genuine global N=4 supersymmetry. We discuss peculiarities of the realization of this N=4 supersymmetry on the affine supercurrents.

A theory for constructing integrable couplings of soliton equations is developed by using various perturbations around solutions of perturbed soliton equations being analytic with respect to a small perturbation parameter. Multi-scale perturbations can be taken and thus higher dimensional integrable couplings can be presented. The theory is applied to the KdV soliton hierarchy. Infinitely many integrable couplings are constructed for each soliton equation in the KdV hierarchy, which contain integrable couplings possessing quadruple Hamiltonian formulations and two classes of hereditary recursion operators, and integrable couplings possessing local 2+1 dimensional bi-Hamiltonian formulations and consequent 2+1 dimensional hereditary recursion operators.

A more general class of multicomponent M\"obius-type symmetries is studied. It is demonstrated that symmetry constraints of KP hierarchy defined using multicomponent M\"obius-type symmetries give rise to Calogero-Moser system.

We study the Pfaff lattice, introduced by us in the context of a Lie algebra splitting of gl(infinity) into sp(infinity) and lower-triangular matrices.

In the semi-infinite case, the tau-functions are Pfaffians; interesting examples are the matrix integrals over symmetric matrices (symmetric matrix integrals) and matrix integrals over self-dual quaternionic Hermitean matrices (symplectic matrix integrals). There is a striking parallel of the Pfaff lattice with the Toda lattice, and more so, there is a map from one to the other. In particular, we exhibit two maps, dual to each other, (i) from the the Hermitean matrix integrals to the symmetric matrix integrals, and (ii) from the Hermitean matrix integrals to the symplectic matrix integrals. The map is given by the skew-Borel decomposition of a skew-symmetric operator. We give explicit examples for the classical weights.
