In this short note we discuss a new formula for solving the nonlocal $\overline{\partial}$-problem, and discuss application to the Manakov--Zakharov dressing method. We then explicitly apply this formula to solving the complex (2+1)D Kadomtsev--Petviashvili equation and complex (2+1)D completely integrable generalization of the (2+1)D Kaup--Broer (or Kaup--Boussinesq) system. We will also discuss how real (1+1)D solutions are expressed using this formalism. It is simple to express the formalism for finite gap primitive solutions from [10], [8] using the formalism of this note. We also discuss recent results on the infinite soliton limit for the (1+1)D Korteweg--de Vries equation and the (2+1)D Kaup--Broer system. In an appendix, the classical solutions to the 3D Laplace equation (2+1)D d'Alembert wave equation by Whittaker are described. This appendix is included to elucidate an analogy between the dressing method and the Whittaker solutions.
In this paper, symmetry analysis is extended to study nonlocal differential equations, in particular two integrable nonlocal equations, the nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the nonlocal modified Korteweg--de Vries equation. Lie point symmetries are obtained based on a general theory and used to reduce these equations to nonlocal and local ordinary differential equations separately; namely one symmetry may allow reductions to both nonlocal and local equations depending on how the invariant variables are chosen. For the nonlocal modified Korteweg--de Vries equation, analogously to the…
We present nonlocal integrable reductions of super AKNS coupled equations. By the use of nonlocal reductions of Ablowitz and Musslimani we find new super integrable equations. In particular we introduce nonlocal super NLS equations and the nonlocal super mKdV equations.
In the present work, the integrable bi-Hamiltonian hierarchies related to compatible nonlocal Poisson brackets of hydrodynamic type are effectively constructed. For achieving this aim, first of all, the problem on the canonical form of a special type for compatible nonlocal Poisson brackets of hydrodynamic type is solved.
We constructed the new classes of exact multi-lump solutions of KP-1 and KP-2 versions of KP equations with integrable boundary condition $u_{y}\big|_{y=0}=0$ by the use of $\overline\partial$-dressing method of Zakharov and Manakov and derived general determinant formula for such solutions. We demonstrated how reality and boundary conditions for the field $u$ in the framework of $\overline\partial$-dressing method can be exactly satisfied. Here we present explicit examples of two-lump solutions with integrable boundary as nonlinear superpositions of two more simpler "deformed" one-lump soluti…
In additional to the parity ($\mathcal{P}$) symmetric, time reversal ($\mathcal{T}$) symmetric, and $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetric nonlocal integrable systems, some other types of nonlocal integrable Klein-Gordon models with the space-time exchange nonlocality and the moving nolocality are proposed. The Lax pairs of the established nonlinear nonlocal Klein-Gordon equations are explicitly given. A special soliton solution, composed of $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric part and $\mathcal{PT}$-antisymmetric part, is illustrated with the shape change.
We solve the problem of reducing to the simplest and convenient for our purposes, canonical form for an arbitrary pair of compatible nonlocal Poisson brackets of hydrodynamic type generated by metrics of constant Riemannian curvature in order to get an effective construction of the integrable hierarchies related to all these compatible Poisson brackets.
Recently a variety of nonlocal integrable systems has been introduced that besides fields located at particlar space-time points simultaneously also contain fields that are located at different, but symmetrically related, points. Here we investigate different types of soliton solutions with regard to their stability against linear pertubations obtained for the nonlocal version of the Hirota/nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the so-called Alice and Bob versions of the Korteweg-de Vries and Bousinesq equations. We encounter different types of scenarios: Solition solutions that are linearly stab…
We constructed new classes of exact multi-lump solutions of mKP-1,2 equations with integrable boundary condition $u(x,y,t)\big|_{y=0}=0$ by the use of $\overline\partial$-dressing method of Zakharov and Manakov. We exactly satisfied reality and boundary conditions for the field $u(x,y,t)$ using general determinant formula for multi-lump solutions. We illustrated new calculated classes by simple examples of two-lump solutions and demonstrated how fulfilment of integrable boundary condition $u\big|_{y=0}=0$ via special nonlinear superposition of several single lumps leads to formation of certain…
Nonlocal symmetries for exactly integrable two-field evolutionary systems of the third order have been computed. Differentiation of the nonlocal symmetries with respect to spatial variable gives a few nonevolutionary systems for each evolutionary system. Zero curvature representations for some new nonevolution systems are presented.
We present some nonlocal integrable systems by using the Ablowitz-Musslimani nonlocal reductions. We first present all possible nonlocal reductions of nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) and modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) systems. We give soliton solutions of these nonlocal equations by using the Hirota method. We extend the nonlocal NLS equation to nonlocal Fordy-Kulish equations by utilizing the nonlocal reduction to the Fordy-Kulish system on symmetric spaces. We also consider the super AKNS system and then show that Ablowitz-Musslimani nonlocal reduction can be extended to super integrable equa…
We find direct and inverse recursion operators for integrable cases of the rmdKP and rdDym equations. Also, we study actions of these operators on the contact symmetries and find shadows of nonlocal symmetries of these equations.
In this paper, we investigate a general integrable nonlocal coupled nonlinear schrödinger (NLS) system with the the parity-time (PT) symmetry, which contains not only the nonlocal self-phase modulation and the nonlocal cross-phase modulation, but also the nonlocal four-wave mixing terms. This nonlocal coupled NLS system is a nonlocal version of a coupled NLS system. The general Nth Darboux transformation for the nonlocal coupled NLS equation is constructed. By using the Darboux transformation, its soliton solutions are obtained.
Recently, an integrable system of coupled (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equations was introduced by Fokas (eq. (18) in Nonlinearity 29}, 319324 (2016)). Following this pattern, two integrable equations [eqs.2 and 3] with specific parity-time symmetry are introduced here, under different reduction conditions. For eq. 2, two kinds of periodic solutions are obtained analytically by means of the Hirota's bilinear method. In the long-wave limit, the two periodic solutions go over into rogue waves (RWs) and semi-rational solutions, respectively. The RWs have a line shape, while the s…
We present a new and relatively elementary method for studying the solution of the initial-value problem for dispersive linear and integrable equations in the large-$t$ limit, based on a generalization of steepest descent techniques for Riemann-Hilbert problems to the setting of $\overline{\partial}$-problems. Expanding upon prior work of the first two authors, we develop the method in detail for the linear and defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equations, and show how in the case of the latter it gives sharper asymptotics than previously known under essentially minimal regularity assumptions on…
New classes of exact multi-soliton solutions of KP-1 and KP-2 versions of Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation with integrable boundary condition $u_{y}\big|_{y=0}=0$ by the use of $\overline\partial$-dressing method of Zakharov and Manakov are constructed in the paper. General determinant formula in convenient form for such solutions is derived. It is shown how reality and boundary conditions for the field $u(x,y,t)$ in the framework of $\overline\partial$-dressing method can be satisfied exactly. Explicit examples of two-soliton solutions as nonlinear superpositions of two more simpler \,"deforme…
It is well known that the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation is a very important integrable equation. Ablowitz and Musslimani introduced and investigated an integrable nonlocal NLS equation through inverse scattering transform. Very recently, we proposed an integrable nonlocal modified Korteweg-de Vries equation (mKdV) which can also be found in a paper of Ablowitz and Musslimani. We have constructed the Darboux transformation and soliton solutions for the nonlocal mKdV equation. In this paper, we will investigate further the nonlocal mKdV equation. We will give its exact solutions including…
Using the Lax representation with non-removable parameter, we construct two hierarchies of nonlocal conservation laws for the 3D rdDym equation $u_{ty} = u_xu_{xy} - u_yu_{xx}$ and describe the algebras of nonlocal symmetries in the corresponding coverings.
In this paper we present a reduction technique based on bilinearization and double Wronskians (or double Casoratians) to obtain explicit multi-soliton solutions for the integrable space-time shifted nonlocal equations introduced very recently by Ablowitz and Musslimani in [Phys. Lett. A, 2021]. Examples include the space-time shifted nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger and modified Korteweg-de Vries hierarchies and the semi-discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation. It is shown that these nonlocal integrable equations with or without space-time shift(s) reduction share same distributions of eigenvalu…
A nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation was recently found by the authors and shown to be an integrable infinite dimensional Hamiltonian equation. Unlike the classical (local) case, here the nonlinearly induced "potential" is $PT$ symmetric thus the nonlocal NLS equation is also $PT$ symmetric. In this paper, new {\it reverse space-time} and {\it reverse time} nonlocal nonlinear integrable equations are introduced. They arise from remarkably simple symmetry reductions of general AKNS scattering problems where the nonlocality appears in both space and time or time alone. They are integr…
Quasi-monochromatic complex reductions of a number of physically important equations are obtained. Starting from the cubic nonlinear Klein-Gordon (NLKG), the Korteweg-deVries (KdV) and water wave equations, it is shown that the leading order asymptotic approximation can be transformed to the well-known integrable AKNS system [6] associated with second order (in space) nonlinear wave equations. This in turn establishes, for the first time, an important physical connection between the recently discovered nonlocal integrable reductions of the AKNS system and physically interesting equations. Redu…
The nonlinear equations for the general nonsingular pairs of compatible nonlocal Poisson brackets of hydrodynamic type are derived and the integrability of these equations by the method of inverse scattering problem is proved. For these equations, the Lax pairs with a spectral parameter are presented. Moreover, we demonstrate the integrability of the equations for some especially important partial classes of compatible nonlocal Poisson brackets of hydrodynamic type, in particular, for the most important case when one of the compatible Poisson brackets is local and also for the case when one of…
Poisson brackets between conserved quantities are a fundamental tool in the theory of integrable systems. The subclass of weakly nonlocal Poisson brackets occurs in many significant integrable systems. Proving that a weakly nonlocal differential operator defines a Poisson bracket can be challenging. We propose a computational approach to this problem through the identification of such operators with superfunctions on supermanifolds.
Integrable and nonintegrable discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS) are significant models to describe many phenomena in physics. Recently, Ablowitz and Musslimani introduced a class of reverse space, reverse time and reverse space-time nonlocal integrable equations, including nonlocal NLS, nonlocal sine-Gordon equation and nonlocal Davey-Stewartson equation etc. And, the integrable nonlocal discrete NLS has been exactly solved by inverse scattering transform. In this paper, we study a nonintegrable discrete nonlocal NLS which is direct discretization version of the reverse space nonlo…

In this note we discuss the global dynamics of an integrable nonlocal NLS on $\mathbb{R}$, which has been the object of recent investigation by integrable systems methods. We prove two results which are in striking contrast with the case of the local cubic focusing NLS on $\mathbb{R}$. First, finite time blow-up solutions exist with arbitrarily small initial data in $H^s(\mathbb{R})$, for any $s\geqslant0$. On the other hand, the solitons of the local NLS, which are also solutions of the nonlocal equation, are unstable by blow-up for the latter.
We systematically investigate the nonlocal Hirota equation with nonzero boundary conditions via Riemann-Hilbert method and multi-layer physics-informed neural networks algorithm. Starting from the Lax pair of nonzero nonlocal Hirota equation, we first give out the Jost function, scattering matrix, their symmetry and asymptotic behavior. Then, the Riemann-Hilbert problem with nonzero boundary conditions are constructed and the precise formulaes of $N$-double poles solutions and $N$-simple poles solutions are written by determinants. Different from the local Hirota equation, the symmetry of scat…
In this paper, we prove that the nonlocal complex modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation introduced by Ablowitz and Musslimani [Nonlinearity, 29, 915-946 (2016)] is gauge equivalent to a spin-like model. From the gauge equivalence, one can see that there exists significant difference between the nonlocal complex mKdV equation and the classical complex mKdV equation. Through constructing the Darboux transformation(DT) for nonlocal complex mKdV equation, a variety of exact solutions including dark soliton, W-type soliton, M-type soliton and periodic solutions are derived.
We consider an integrable model which describes light beams propagating in nonlocal nonlinear media of Cole-Cole type. The model is derived as high frequency limit of both Maxwell equations and the nonlocal nonlinear Schroedinger equation. We demonstrate that for a general form of nonlinearity there exist selfguided light beams. In high frequency limit nonlocal perturbations can be seen as a class of phase deformation along one direction. We study in detail nonlocal perturbations described by the dispersionless Veselov-Novikov (dVN) hierarchy. The dVN hierarchy is analyzed by the reduction met…
It is well known that integrable hierarchies in (1+1) dimensions are local while the recursion operators that generate them usually contain nonlocal terms. We resolve this apparent discrepancy by providing simple and universal sufficient conditions for a (nonlocal) recursion operator in (1+1) dimensions to generate a hierarchy of local symmetries. These conditions are satisfied by virtually all known today recursion operators and are much easier to verify than those found in earlier work. We also give explicit formulas for the nonlocal parts of higher recursion operators, Poisson and symplecti…
A study of general rogue waves in some integrable reverse time nonlocal nonlinear equations is presented. Specifically, the reverse time nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) and nonlocal Davey-Stewartson (DS) equations are investigated, which are nonlocal reductions from the AKNS hierarchy. By using Darboux transformation (DT) method, several types of rogue waves are constructed. Especially, a unified binary DT is found for this nonlocal DS system, thus the solution formulas for nonlocal DSI and DSII equation can be written in an uniform expression. Dynamics of these rogue waves is separately …
In this work, a generalized nonlocal Lakshmanan-Porsezian-Daniel (LPD) equation is introduced, and its integrability as an infinite dimensional Hamilton dynamic system is established. Motivated by the ideas of Ablowitz and Musslimani (2016 Nonlinearity 29 915), we successfully derive the inverse scattering transform (IST) of the nonlocal LPD equation. The direct scattering problem of the equation is first constructed, and some important symmetries of the eigenfunctions and the scattering data are discussed. By using a novel Left-Right Riemann-Hilbert (RH) problem, the inverse scattering proble…
Identifying integrable coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) of dissipative type and deducing their general solutions are some of the challenging tasks in nonlinear dynamics. In this paper we undertake these problems and unearth two classes of integrable coupled nonlinear ODEs of arbitrary order. To achieve these goals we introduce suitable nonlocal transformations in certain linear ODEs and generate the coupled nonlinear ODEs. In particular, we show that the problem of solving these classes of coupled nonlinear ODEs of any order, effectively reduces to solving a single firs…
The integrable nonlocal nonlinear Schrodinger (NNLS) equation with the self-induced parity-time-symmetric potential [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110 (2013) 064105] is investigated, which is an integrable extension of the standard NLS equation. Its novel higher-order rational solitons are found using the nonlocal version of the generalized perturbation (1, N-1)-fold Darboux transformation. These rational solitons illustrate abundant wave structures for the distinct choices of parameters (e.g., the strong and weak interactions of bright and dark rational solitons). Moreover, we also explore the dynamical b…
A set of infinitely many nonlocal conservation laws are revealed for (1+1)-dimensional evolution equations. For some special known integrable systems, say, the KdV and Dym equations, it is found that different nonlocal conservation laws can lead to same new integrable systems via reciprocal transformation. On the other hand, it can be considered as one solution of the new model obtained via reciprocal transformation(s) can be changed to different solutions of the original model. The fact indicates also that two or more different (local and nonlocal) conservation laws can be used to find implic…
We show that the integrable equations of hydrodynamic type admit nonlocal reductions. We first construct such reductions for a general Lax equation and then give several examples. The reduced nonlocal equations are of hydrodynamic type and integrable. They admit Lax representations and hence possess infinitely many conserved quantities.
In this letter, we study systematically the general properties of the $B$-extension of any integrable model. In addition to discussing the general properties of Hamiltonians, Hamiltonian structures etc, we also clarify the origin of "exotic" charges in such models. We show that, in such models, there exist at least two sets of non-local conserved charges (and more if $N>1$ supersymmetry is present) and that the "exotic" charges are part of this non-local charge hierarchy. The construction of these non-local charges from the Lax operator is explained.
A two component nonlocal vector nonlinear Schrödinger equation (VNLSE) is considered with a self-induced $ {\cal PT}$ symmetric potential. It is shown that the system possess a Lax pair and an infinite number of conserved quantities and hence integrable. Some of the conserved quantities like number operator, Hamiltonian etc. are found to be real-valued, in spite of these charges being non-hermitian. The soliton solution for the same equation is obtained through the method of inverse scattering transformation and the condition of reduction from nonlocal to local case is also mentioned. An inhom…
We solve the problem of describing all nonlocal Hamiltonian operators of hydrodynamic type with flat metrics. This problem is also equivalent to the description of all flat submanifolds with flat normal bundle in a pseudo-Euclidean space. It is proved that every such Hamiltonian operator (or the submanifold corresponding to the operator) gives a pencil of compatible Poisson brackets, generates bi-Hamiltonian integrable hierarchies of hydrodynamic type, and also defines a family of integrals in involution. We prove that a natural special class of such Hamiltonian operators (submanifolds) is des…
The closed string model in the background gravity field is considered as the bi-Hamiltonian system in assumption that string model is the integrable model for particular kind of the background fields. The dual nonlocal Poisson brackets, de pending of the background fields and of there derivatives, are obtained. The integrability condition is formulated as compatibility of the bi-Hamiltonity con dition and the Jacobi identity of the dual Poisson bracket. Two types of the non local brackets are introduced. Constant curvature and time-dependent metrics are considered, as example. It is, shown tha…
Nonlocal nonlinear Schroedinger-type equation is derived as a model to describe paraxial light propagation in nonlinear media with different `degrees' of nonlocality. High frequency limit of this equation is studied under specific assumptions of Cole-Cole dispersion law and a slow dependence along propagating direction. Phase equations are integrable and they correspond to dispersionless limit of Veselov-Novikov hierarchy. Analysis of compatibility among intensity law (dependence of intensity on the refractive index) and high frequency limit of Poynting vector conservation law reveals the exis…
As with nonlocal continuous and semi-discrete integrable systems, the study of nonlocal discrete integrable systems is also of interest. In this paper, local and nonlocal reductions of a fully discrete negative order Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segur equation are investigated. We give out the exact solutions in double Casoratian form to the reduced nonlocal discrete sine-Gordon equations by the bilinearization reduction method. Then, through the continuum limits, nonlocal semi-discrete sine-Gordon equations and their solutions are obtained. The dynamics of soliton solutions are analyzed and illustrat…
In classical shallow water wave (SWW) theory, there exist two integrable one-dimensional SWW equation [Hirota-Satsuma (HS) type and Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segur (AKNS) type] in the Boussinesq approximation. In this paper, we mainly focus on the integrable SWW equation of AKNS type. The nonlocal symmetry in form of square spectral function is derived starting from its Lax pair. Infinitely many nonlocal symmetries are presented by introducing the arbitrary spectrum parameter. These nonlocal symmetries can be localized and the SWW equation is extended to enlarged system with auxiliary dependent var…
We construct several new integrable systems corresponding to nonlocal versions of the Hirota equation, which is a particular example of higher order nonlinear Schrödinger equations. The integrability of the new models is established by providing their explicit forms of Lax pairs or zero curvature conditions. The two compatibility equations arising in this construction are found to be related to each other either by a parity transformation $\mathcal{P}$, by a time reversal $\mathcal{T}$ or a $\mathcal{PT}$-transformation possibly combined with a conjugation. We construct explicit multi-soliton …
We consider the four-dimensional integrable Martinez Alonso--Shabat equation, and list three integrable three-dimensional reductions thereof. We also present a four-dimensional integrable modified Martinez Alonso--Shabat equation together with its Lax pair. We also construct an infinite hierarchy of commuting nonlocal symmetries (and not just the shadows, as it is usually the case in the literature) for the Martinez Alonso--Shabat equation.
We use two families of parameters $\{(ε_{x_j}, ε_{t_j})\,|\,ε_{x_j,t_j}=\pm1,\, j=1,2,...,n\}$ to first introduce a unified novel two-family-parameter system (simply called ${\mathcal Q}^{(n)}_{ε_{x_{\vec{n}}},ε_{t_{\vec{n}}}}$ system), connecting integrable local, nonlocal, novel mixed-local-nonlocal, and other nonlocal vector nonlinear Schrödinger (VNLS) equations. The ${\mathcal Q}^{(n)}_{ε_{x_{\vec{n}}}, ε_{t_{\vec{n}}}}$ system with $(ε_{x_j}, ε_{t_j})=(\pm 1, 1),\, j=1,2,...,n$ is shown to possess Lax pairs and infinite number of conservation laws. Moreover, we also analyze the ${\mathca…
The closed string model in the background gravity field is considered as a bi-Hamiltonian system in assumption that string model is the integrable model for particular kind of the background fields. The dual nonlocal Poisson brackets(PB), depending of the background fields and of their derivatives, are obtained. The integrability condition is formulated as the compatibility of the bi-Hamiltonity condition and the Jacobi identity of the dual PB. It is shown that the dual brackets and dual Hamiltonians can be obtained from the canonical PB and from the initial Hamiltonian by imposing the second …
We study the initial value problem for the integrable nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger (NNLS) equation \[ iq_{t}(x,t)+q_{xx}(x,t)+2σq^{2}(x,t)\bar{q}(-x,t)=0 \] with decaying (as $x\to\pm\infty$) boundary conditions. The main aim is to describe the long-time behavior of the solution of this problem. To do this, we adapt the nonlinear steepest-decent method \cite{DZ} to the study of the Riemann-Hilbert problem associated with the NNLS equation. Our main result is that, in contrast to the local NLS equation, where the main asymptotic term (in the solitonless case) decays to $0$ as $O(t^{-1/2})$ al…
We introduce a new unified two-parameter $\{(ε_x, ε_t)\,|ε_{x,t}=\pm1\}$ wave model (simply called ${\mathcal Q}_{ε_x,ε_t}^{(n)}$ model), connecting integrable local and nonlocal vector nonlinear Schrödinger equations. The two-parameter $(ε_x, ε_t)$ family also brings insight into a one-to-one connection between four points $(ε_x, ε_t)$ (or complex numbers $ε_x+iε_t$) with $\{{\mathcal I}, {\mathcal P}, {\mathcal T}, {\mathcal PT}\}$ symmetries for the first time. The ${\mathcal Q}_{ε_x,ε_t}^{(n)}$ model with $(ε_x, ε_t)=(\pm 1, 1)$ is shown to possess a Lax pair and infinite number of conserv…
We consider the pairs of general weakly non-local Poisson brackets of Hydrodynamic Type (Ferapontov brackets) and the corresponding integrable hierarchies. We show that under the requirement of non-degeneracy of the corresponding "first" pseudo-Riemannian metric $g_{(0)}^{νμ}$ and also some non-degeneracy requirement for the nonlocal part it is possible to introduce a "canonical" set of "integrable hierarchies" based on the Casimirs, Momentum functional and some "Canonical Hamiltonian functions". We prove also that all the "Higher" "positive" Hamiltonian operators and the "negative" symplectic…
In this work, by using the Hirota bilinear method, we obtain one- and two-soliton solutions of integrable $(2+1)$-dimensional $3$-component Maccari system which is used as a model describing isolated waves localized in a very small part of space and related to very well-known systems like nonlinear Schrödinger, Fokas, and long wave resonance systems. We represent all local and Ablowitz-Musslimani type nonlocal reductions of this system and obtain new integrable systems. By the help of reduction formulas and soliton solutions of the $3$-component Maccari system, we obtain one- and two-soliton s…
We continue here the study of Lax integrable equations. We consider four three-dimensional equations: (1) the rdDym equation $u_{ty} = u_x u_{xy} - u_y u_{xx}$, (2) the 3D Pavlov equation $u_{yy} = u_{tx} + u_y u_{xx} - u_x u_{xy}$; (3) the universal hierarchy equation $u_{yy} = u_t u_{xy} - u_y u_{tx}$, and (4) the modified Veronese web equation $u_{ty} = u_t u_{xy} - u_y u_{tx}$. For each equation, using the know Lax pairs and expanding the latter in formal series in spectral parameter, we construct two infinite-dimensional differential coverings and give a full description of nonlocal symme…
