Factorization of a hierarchy of the lattice soliton equations from a binary Bargmann symmetry constraint (Q1779851)

The author derives a hierarchy of lattice equations from a discrete matrix spectral problem, a typical lattice equation in the resulting hierarchy turn into the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation in a continuous limit, and it may be transformed into the celebrated Volterra lattice. He establishes its Hamiltonian structures by the aid of discrete trace identity. An infinite set of conserved functionals of the resulting hierarchy is given. The spatial part of the Lax pairs and the adjoint Lax pairs are nonlinearized into a new integrable symplectic map. Nonlinearization of the temporal parts of the Lax pairs and the adjoint Lax pairs generate a family of finite-dimensional integrable systems in Liouville sense. Moreover, factorization of a discrete KdV equation is given.
