Abstract

It is known that some integrable lattice equations can be formulated by the eigenfunctions of the Lax triplet of the lattice potential Korteweg-de Vries (lpKdV) equation; the eigenfunctions satisfy a discrete Abel formula in which the `integration' constant defines the $δ$ parameter in some equations in the Adler-Bobenko-Suris (ABS) classification. In this paper, we present a full Darboux transformation for the Lax triplet of the lpKdV equation, and eigenfunctions are formulated in terms of Casoratians. When the eigenfunctions take the elementary discrete Lamé functions, we get the elliptic $N$-soliton solution for the lpKdV equation after $N$-fold Darboux transformation. We then determine the constant in the discrete Abel formula in this case. The eigenfunctions are used to formulate elliptic $N$-soliton solutions for various equations in the ABS list, such as H3($δ$), $Q1(Δ)$, Q2 and Q3($Δ$) equations.

The $\mathrm{al}_{ab}$ functions of hyperelliptic curves: a generalization of Jacobi's elliptic functions and explicit solutions of a degenerate Krichever-Novikov equation

The Jacobi elliptic functions $\mathrm{sn}$, $\mathrm{cn}$, $\mathrm{dn}$ and their ratios are expressed by Weierstrass's functions $\mathrm{al}_a=\sqrt{x-b_a}$ of an elliptic curve. For a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$, Weierstrass's $\mathrm{al}_a$ functions generalize $\mathrm{sn}$, $\mathrm{cn}$ and $\mathrm{dn}$, and the modified Korteweg-de Vries and sine-Gordon equations stand behind them. In this paper we study the $\mathrm{al}_{ab}$ functions, which are defined by the sigma function shifted by the sum of two half-periods and which, together with the ratios of the $\mathrm{al}_a$ functions, generalize the remaining Jacobi elliptic functions. We determine the exact lattice of periods of $\mathrm{al}_{12}$ and show that it is single-valued on the unramified double covering of the Jacobian corresponding to the double covering $\hat{w}^2=(x-b_1)(x-b_2)$ of the curve. We show that $\mathrm{al}_{12}$ is the Wronskian of the band-edge eigenfunctions $\mathrm{al}_1$ and $\mathrm{al}_2$, so that the half-period translations realize Darboux transformations. As the main result, $\mathrm{al}_{12}$, $\mathrm{al}_2/\mathrm{al}_1$ and $1/\mathrm{al}_{12}$ satisfy one and the same degenerate Krichever-Novikov equation, whose polynomial has the double roots $0$ and $\infty$, and the half-periods act on these solutions as the Möbius symmetries of the equation. Thus the Krichever-Novikov equation stands behind the $\mathrm{al}_{ab}$ functions. In genus one these functions reduce to $\mathrm{sn}$, $\mathrm{ns}$ and $\mathrm{dc}$.

The integer spectrum of a superintegrable quantum field theory

In our previous article CMP 407 (2026) 131, we explored the rich algebraic structures arising from a specific quantum many-body Hamiltonian quartic in the bosonic creation-annihilation operators. This Hamiltonian originated from the works of Gérard and Grellier on classical turbulent energy transfer in a Lax-integrable setting, and its quantum version respects hierarchies of polynomial conservation laws all of which possess purely integer spectra, as does the Hamiltonian itself. The latter feature, known from numerical studies, has previously remained unproved. Here, we present an elementary solution of the quantum Gérard-Grellier Hamiltonian. The eigenstates are labelled by partitions and the corresponding eigenvalues admit simple explicit expressions in terms of the principal hook lengths. The key ingredient in this construction is a specific basis we introduce, inspired by the classical multisoliton coherent states, in which the Hamiltonian is upper-triangular. The expressions for the eigenvalues then immediately follow, while the full eigenbasis can be recovered via a Gram-Schmidt procedure.

On a certain system of discrete equations with the Laurent property

We consider a system of two bilinear discrete equations with four parameters. It defines a certain discrete dynamical system. Each of its solutions is represented as a pair of sequences. It is proved that for arbitrary initial data all terms of both sequences are Laurent polynomials in the initial data with integer coefficients. This property is called the Laurent property. The proof relies on an established connection between the system and the Somos-5 equation. It is shown that both components of the solution satisfy the same equation with the same parameters. To prove the main theorem, the strong Laurent property for the Somos-5 equation is used, which makes it possible to control negative powers of the initial data. An analogue of this property is obtained directly for the system under study. As corollaries, sufficient conditions for the integrality of solutions are found. An example of a pair of integer sequences illustrating the theorem on the strong Laurent property is given.
