✦ Synopsis


It is pointed out that the linear scattering problem for a non-linear evolution equation which admits soliton solutions may be described in terms of a linear connection on a principal SL(2, N)-bundle. The equation in question is satisfied if and only if the curvature of this connection vanishes. Some other properties of the curvature are identified. The sine-Gordon, Korteweg-de Vries and modified Korteweg-de Vries equations are treated explicitly.

Integrable super nonlinear classical partial differential equations are considered. A super sl(2, R) algebra-valued connection 1-form is constructed.

We study the (2 ΓΎ 1)-dimensional model proposed by Kadomtsev and Petviashvili (KP) to describe slowly varying nonlinear waves in a dispersive medium. Applying an appropriate Lie transformation and following the method introduced by Tajiri et al., the KP equation is reduced to a one-dimensional equat
