\(\mathcal D\)-bundles and integrable hierarchies (Q645349)

This article is on the geometry of \(\mathcal{D}\)-bundle, i.e., locally projective \(\mathcal{D}\)-modules, on algebraic curves, and applications of them to the studies of integrable hierarchies, i.e., the multicomponent Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) and spin Calogero-Moser (CM) hierarchies, and especially to the rational, trigonometric, and elliptic solutions of KP. Since the local structure of the \(\mathcal{D}\)-bundles is determined by the full Sato Grassmannian, the authors show that the KP hierarchies have a geometric description as flows on moduli space of the \(\mathcal{D}\)-bundles. These solutions are captured by the \(\mathcal{D}\)-bundles on cubic curves \(E\), i.e., irreducible (smooth, nodal, or cuspidal) curves of arithmetic genus 1. Fourier-Mukai transform describing the \(\mathcal{D}\)-modules on the cubic curves \(E\) in terms of (complexes of) sheaves on a twisted cotangent bundle \(E^\natural\) over \(E\) shows the correspondence between the \(\mathcal{D}\)-bundles and the CM spectral sheaves. It implies that the poles of the KP-solutions are identified with the positions of the CM particles. They also discuss their relations to the Hitchin integrable system.
