We study the Casimir effect with different temperatures between the plates ($T$) resp. outside of them ($T'$). If we consider the inner system as the black body radiation for a special geometry, then contrary to common belief the temperature approaches a constant value for vanishing volume during isentropic processes. This means: the reduction of the degrees of freedom can not be compensated by a concentration of the energy during an adiabatic contraction of the two-plate system. Looking at the Casimir pressure, we find one unstable equilibrium point for isothermal processes with $T > T'$. For isentropic processes there is additionally one stable equilibrium point for larger values of the distances between the two plates.}

In de Broglie and Bohm's pilot-wave theory, as is well known, it is possible to consider alternative particle dynamics while still preserving the quantum distribution. I present the analogous result for Nelson's stochastic theory, thus characterising the most general diffusion processes that preserve the quantum equilibrium distribution, and discuss the analogy with the construction of the dynamics for Bell's beable theories. I briefly comment on the problem of convergence to the quantum distribution and on possible experimental constraints on the alternative dynamics.

The problem of measurement in quantum mechanics is reanalyzed within a general, strictly probabilistic framework (without reduction postulate). Based on a novel comprehensive definition of measurement the natural emergence of objective events is demonstrated and their formal representation within quantum mechanics is obtained. In order to be objective an event is required to be observable or readable in at least two independent, mutually non-interfering ways with necessarily agreeing results. Consistency in spite of unrestricted validity of reversibility of the evolution or the superposition principle is demonstrated and the role played by state reduction, in a properly defined restricted sense, is discussed. Some general consequences are pointed out.

In this paper, we focus on a general class of Schr\"odinger equations that are time-dependent and quadratic in X and P. We transform Schr\"odinger equations in this class, via a class of time-dependent mass equations, to a class of solvable time-dependent oscillator equations. This transformation consists of a unitary transformation and a change in the ``time'' variable. We derive mathematical constraints forthe transformation and introduce two examples.

It is shown, in the context of a recent formulation of elementary particles in terms of, what may be called, a Quantum Mechanical Kerr-Newman metric, that spin is a consequence of a space-time cut off at the Compton wavelength and Compton time scale. On this basis, we deduce the Dirac equation from a simple coordinate transformation. Time irreversibility is seen to follow providing a rationale for the Kaon puzzle. So also, the handedness of the neutrino can be explained.

It is shown that the manner of introducing theinteraction between a spin 1 particle and external classical gravitational field can be successfully uni- fied with the approach that occurred with regard to a spin 1/2 particle and was first developed by Tetrode, Weyl, Fock, Ivanenko. On that way a general- ly relativistical Duffin-Kemmer equation is costructed. So, the manner of extending the flat space Dirac equation to general relativity case indicates clearly that the Lorentz group underlies equally both these theories. In other words, the Lorentz group retains its importance and significance at changing the Minkowski space model to an arbitrary curved space-time. In contrast to this, at generalizing the Proca formulation, we automatically destroy any relations to the Lorentz group, although the definition itself for a spin 1 particle as an elementary object was based on just this group. Such a gravity's sensitiveness to the fermion-boson division might appear rather strange and unattractive asymmetry, being subjected to the criticism. Moreover, just this feature has brought about a plenty of speculation on this matter. In any case, this peculiarity of particle-gravity field inter- action is recorded almost in every handbook. In the paper, on the base of the Duffin-Kemmer formalism developed, the problem of a vector particle in the Abelian monopole potential is considered.

For a harmonic oscillator with time-dependent (positive) mass and frequency, an unitary operator is shown to transform the quantum states of the system to those of a harmonic oscillator system of unit mass and time-dependent frequency, as well as operators. For a driven harmonic oscillator, it is also shown that, there are unitary transformations which give the driven system from the system of same mass and frequency without driving force. The transformation for a driven oscillator depends on the solution of classical equation of motion of the driven system. These transformations, thus, give a simple way of finding exact wave functions of a driven harmonic oscillator system, provided the quantum states of the corresponding system of unit mass are given.

It is shown that EPR correlations are the angular analogue to the Hanbury-Brown--Twiss effect. As insight provided by this model, it is seen that, analysis of the EPR experiment requires conditional probabilities which do not admit the derivation of Bell inequalities.

Dissipation-free photon-photon interaction at the single photon level is studied in the context of cavity electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). For a single multilevel atom exhibiting EIT in the strong cavity-coupling regime, the anharmonicity of the atom-cavity system has an upper bound determined by single atom-photon coupling strength. Photon blockade is inferred to occur for both single and multi-atom cases from the behaviour of transition rates between dressed states of the system. Numerical calculations of the second order coherence function indicate that photon antibunching in both single and two-atom cases are strong and comparable.

We perform the exact numerical diagonalization of the Hamiltonians that describe both degenerate and nondegenerate parametric amplifiers, by exploiting the conservation laws pertaining each device. We clarify the conditions under which the parametric approximation holds, showing that the most relevant requirement is the coherence of the pump after the interaction, rather than its undepletion.

We show how two level atoms can be used to build microscopic models for mirrors and beamsplitters. The mirrors can have arbitrary shape allowing closed cavities to be built. It is possible to build networks or mirrors and beamsplitters and follow the time-evolution of the intensity of the radiation through the system.

A quantum computer is proposed in which information is stored in the two lowest electronic states of doped quantum dots (QDs). Many QDs are located in a microcavity. A pair of gates controls the energy levels in each QD. A Controlled Not (CNOT) operation involving any pair of QDs can be effected by a sequence of gate-voltage pulses which tune the QD energy levels into resonance with frequencies of the cavity or a laser. The duration of a CNOT operation is estimated to be much shorter than the time for an electron to decohere by emitting an acoustic phonon.

The formalism of subdynamics is extended to the functional approach of quantum systems, and used for the Friedrichs model, in which diagonal singularities in states and observables are included. We compute in this approach the generalized eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the Liouvulle-Von Newmann operator, using an iterative scheme. As complex generalized eigenvalues are obtained, the decay rates of unstable modes are included in the spectral decomposition.

The Casimir energy for a compact dielectric sphere is considered in a novel way, using the quantum statistical method introduced by H\oye - Stell and others. Dilute media are assumed. It turns out that this method is a very powerful one: we are actually able to derive an expression for the Casimir energy that contains also the negative part resulting from the attractive van der Waals forces between the molecules. It is precisely this part of the Casimir energy that has turned out to be so difficult to extract from the formalism when using the conventional field theoretical methods for a continuous medium. Assuming a frequency cutoff, our results are in agreement with those recently obtained by Barton [J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 32(1999)525].

A procedure for constructing bound state potentials is given. We show that, under the natural conditions imposed on a radial eigenvalue problem, the only special cases of the general central potential, which are exactly solvable and have infinite number of energy eigenvalues, are the Coulomb and harmonic oscillator potentials.

The Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) effect provides an example of quantum correlations that cannot be explained by classical local hidden variables. This paper reports on the experimental realization of GHZ correlations using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The NMR experiment differs from the originally proposed GHZ experiment in several ways: it is performed on mixed states rather than pure states; and instead of being widely separated, the spins on which it is performed are all located in the same molecule. As a result, the NMR version of the GHZ experiment cannot entirely rule out classical local hidden variables. It nonetheless provides an unambiguous demonstration of the "paradoxical" GHZ correlations, and shows that any classical hidden variables must communicate by non-standard and previously undetected forces. The NMR demonstration of GHZ correlations shows the power of NMR quantum information processing techniques for demonstrating fundamental effects in quantum mechanics.

We propose a new approach to calculate perturbatively the effects of a particular deformed Heisenberg algebra on energy spectrum. We use this method to calculate the harmonic oscillator spectrum and find that corrections are in agreement with a previous calculation. Then, we apply this approach to obtain the hydrogen atom spectrum and we find that splittings of degenerate energy levels appear. Comparison with experimental data yields an interesting upper bound for the deformation parameter of the Heisenberg algebra.

We present a detailed numerical study of a chaotic classical system and its quantum counterpart. The system is a special case of a kicked rotor and for certain parameter values possesses cantori dividing chaotic regions of the classical phase space. We investigate the diffusion of particles through a cantorus; classical diffusion is observed but quantum diffusion is only significant when the classical phase space area escaping through the cantorus per kicking period greatly exceeds Planck's constant. A quantum analysis confirms that the cantori act as barriers. We numerically estimate the classical phase space flux through the cantorus per kick and relate this quantity to the behaviour of the quantum system. We introduce decoherence via environmental interactions with the quantum system and observe the subsequent increase in the transport of quantum particles through the boundary.

We propose a formulation of an absorbing boundary for a quantum particle. The formulation is based on a Feynman-type integral over trajectories that are confined by the absorbing boundary. Trajectories that reach the absorbing wall are instantaneously terminated and their probability is discounted from the population of the surviving trajectories. This gives rise to a unidirectional absorption current at the boundary. We calculate the survival probability as a function of time. Several modes of absorption are derived from our formalism: total absorption, absorption that depends on energy levels, and absorption of non-interacting particles. Several applications are given: the slit experiment with an absorbing screen and with absorbing lateral walls, and one dimensional particle between two absorbing walls. The survival probability of a particle between absorbing walls exhibits decay with beats.

Teleportation of an EPR pair using triplet in state of the Horne-Greenberger-Zeilinger form to two receivers is considered. It needs a three-particle basis for joint measurement. By contrast the one qubit teleportation the required basis is not maximally entangled. It consists of the states corresponding to the maximally entanglement of two particles only. Using outcomes of measurement both receivers can recover an unknown EPR state however one of them can not do it separately. Teleportation of the N-particle entanglement is discussed.

Probabilistic quantum cloning and identifying machines can be constructed via unitary-reduction processes [Duan and Guo, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 4999 (1998)]. Given the cloning (identifying) probabilities, we derive an explicit representation of the unitary evolution and corresponding Hamiltonian to realize probabilistic cloning (identification). The logic networks are obtained by decomposing the unitary representation into universal quantum logic operations. The robustness of the networks is also discussed. Our method is suitable for a $k$-partite system, such as quantum computer, and may be generalized to general state-dependent cloning and identification.

The Standard Quantum Limit (SQL) for the measurement of a free mass position is illustrated, along with two necessary conditions for breaching it. A measurement scheme that overcomes the SQL is engineered. It can be achieved in three-steps: i) a pre-squeezing stage; ii) a standard von Neumann measurement with momentum-position object-probe interaction and iii) a feedback. Advantages and limitations of this scheme are discussed. It is shown that all of the three steps are needed in order to overcome the SQL. In particular, the von Neumann interaction is crucial in getting the right state reduction, whereas other experimentally achievable Hamiltonians, as, for example, the radiation-pressure interaction, lead to state reductions that on the average cannot overcome the SQL.

Adiabatic evolutions with a gap condition have, under a range of circumstances, exponentially small tails that describe the leaking out of the spectral subspace. Adiabatic evolutions without a gap condition do not seem to have this feature in general. This is a known fact for eigenvalue crossing. We show that this is also the case for eigenvalues at the threshold of the continuous spectrum by considering the Friedrichs model.

Quantum computation using electron spins in three coupled dot with different size is proposed. By using the energy selectivity of both photon assisted tunneling and spin rotation of electrons, logic gates are realized by static and rotational magnetic field and resonant optical pulses. Possibility of increasing the number of quantum bits using the energy selectivity is also discussed.

We consider the Born-Oppenheimer problem near conical intersection in two dimensions. For energies close to the crossing energy we describe the wave function near an isotropic crossing and show that it is related to generalized hypergeometric functions 0F3. This function is to a conical intersection what the Airy function is to a classical turning point. As an application we calculate the anomalous Zeeman shift of vibrational levels near a crossing.

Inspired by the dissipative quantum model of brain, we model the states of neural nets in terms of collective modes by the help of the formalism of Quantum Field Theory. We exhibit an explicit neural net model which allows to memorize a sequence of several informations without reciprocal destructive interference, namely we solve the overprinting problem in such a way last registered information does not destroy the ones previously registered. Moreover, the net is able to recall not only the last registered information in the sequence, but also anyone of those previously registered.

We deform the real potential of Poeschl and Teller by a shift of its coordinate in imaginary direction. We show that the new model remains exactly solvable. Its bound states are constructed in closed form. Wave functions are complex and proportional to Jacobi polynomials. Some of them diverge in the Hermitian limit. In contrast, all their energies prove real and shift-independent. In this sense the lost Hermiticity of our family of Hamiltonians seems replaced by their accidental PT symmetry.

The coherent information concept is used to analyze a variety of simple quantum systems. Coherent information was calculated for the information decay in a two-level atom in the presence of an external resonant field, for the information exchange between two coupled two-level atoms, and for the information transfer from a two-level atom to another atom and to a photon field. The coherent information is shown to be equal to zero for all full-measurement procedures, but it completely retains its original value for quantum duplication. Transmission of information from one open subsystem to another one in the entire closed system is analyzed to learn quantum information about the forbidden atomic transition via a dipole active transition of the same atom. It is argued that coherent information can be used effectively to quantify the information channels in physical systems where quantum coherence plays an important role.

We consider a generalization of the full symmetric Toda hierarchy where the matrix $\tilde {L}$ of the Lax pair is given by $\tilde {L}=LS$, with a full symmetric matrix $L$ and a nondegenerate diagonal matrix $S$. The key feature of the hierarchy is that the inverse scattering data includes a class of noncompact groups of matrices, such as $O(p,q)$. We give an explicit formula for the solution to the initial value problem of this hierarchy. The formula is obtained by generalizing the orthogonalization procedure of Szeg\"{o}, or the QR factorization method of Symes. The behaviors of the solutions are also studied. Generically, there are two types of solutions, having either sorting property or blowing up to infinity in finite time. The $\tau$-function structure for the tridiagonal hierarchy is also studied.

We show here the separability of Hamilton-Jacobi equation for a hierarchy of integrable Hamiltonian systems obtained from the constrained flows of the Jaulent-Miodek hierarchy. The classical Poisson structure for these Hamiltonian systems is constructed. The associated $r$-matrices depend not only on the spectral parameters, but also on the dynamical variables and, for consistency, have to obey the classical Yang-Baxter equations of dynamical type. Some new solutions of classical dynamical Yang-Baxter equations are presented. Thus these integrable systems provide examples both for the dynamical $r$-matrix and for the separable Hamiltonian system not having a natural Hamiltonian form.

Starting from the standard form of the five discrete Painlev\'e equations we show how one can obtain (through appropriate limits) a host of new equations which are also the discrete analogues of the continuous Painlev\'e equations. A particularly interesting technique is the one based on the assumption that some simplification takes place in the autonomous form of the mapping following which the deautonomization leads to a new $n$-dependence and introduces more new discrete Painlev\'e equations.

In this paper the stability of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation is investigated. It is shown analytically and numerically that small perturbations of solutions of the KdV-equation introduce effects of dispersion, hence the perturbation propagates with a different velocity then the unperturbed solution. This effect is investigated analytically by formulating a differential equation for perturbations of solutions of the KdV-equation. This differential equation is solved generally using an Inverse Scattering Technique (IST) using the continuous part of the spectrum of the Schr\"{o}dinger equation. It is shown explicitly that the perturbation consist of two parts. The first part represents the time-evolution of the perturbation only. The second part represents the interaction between the perturbation and the unperturbed solution. It is shown explicitly that singular non-dispersive solutions of the KdV-equation are unstable.

A kind of Bargmann symmetry constraints involving Lax pairs and adjoint Lax pairs is proposed for soliton hierarchy. The Lax pairs and adjoint Lax pairs are nonlinearized into a hierarchy of commutative finite dimensional integrable Hamiltonian systems and explicit integrals of motion may also be generated. The corresponding binary nonlinearization procedure leads to a sort of involutive solutions to every system in soliton hierarchy which are all of finite gap. An illustrative example is given in the case of AKNS soliton hierarchy.

Four examples of the general procedure are provided.

It has been known since the beginning of this century that isomonodromic problems --- typically the Painlev\'e transcendents --- in a suitable asymptotic region look like a kind of ``modulation'' of isospectral problem. This connection between isomonodromic and isospectral problems is reconsidered here in the light of recent studies related to the Seiberg-Witten solutions of $N = 2$ supersymmetric gauge theories. A general machinary is illustrated in a typical isomonodromic problem, namely the Schlesinger equation, which is reformulated to include a small parameter $\epsilon$. In the small-$\epsilon$ limit, solutions of this isomonodromic problem are expected to behave as a slowly modulated finite-gap solution of an isospectral problem. The modulation is caused by slow deformations of the spectral curve of the finite-gap solution. A modulation equation of this slow dynamics is derived by a heuristic method. An inverse period map of Seiberg-Witten type turns out to give general solutions of this modulation equation. This construction of general solution also reveals the existence of deformations of Seiberg-Witten type on the same moduli space of spectral curves. A prepotential is also constructed in the same way as the prepotential of the Seiberg-Witten theory.

We study the geometrical meaning of the Faa' di Bruno polynomials in the context of KP theory. They provide a basis in a subspace W of the universal Grassmannian associated to the KP hierarchy. When W comes from geometrical data via the Krichever map, the Faa' di Bruno recursion relation turns out to be the cocycle condition for (the Welters hypercohomology group describing) the deformations of the dynamical line bundle on the spectral curve together with the meromorphic sections which give rise to the Krichever map. Starting from this, one sees that the whole KP hierarchy has a similar cohomological meaning.

The investigation of nonlinear dynamical systems of the type $\dot{x}=P(x,y,z),\dot{y}=Q(x,y,z),\dot{z}=R(x,y,z)$ by means of reduction to some ordinary differential equations of the second order in the form $y''+a_1(x,y)y'^3+3a_2(x,y)y'^2+3a_3(x,y)y'+a_4(x,y)=0$ is done. The main backbone of this investigation was provided by the theory of invariants developed by S. Lie, R. Liouville and A. Tresse at the end of the 19th century and the projective geometry of E. Cartan. In our work two, in some sense supplementary, systems are considered: the Lorenz system $\dot{x}=\sigma (y-x), \dot{y}=rx-y-zx,\dot{z}=xy-bz $ and the R\"o\ss ler system $\dot{x}=-y-z,\dot{y}=x+ay,\dot{z}=b+xz-cz.$. The invarinats for the ordinary differential equations, which correspond to the systems mentioned abouve, are evaluated. The connection of values of the invariants with characteristics of dynamical systems is established.

By starting from known graded Lie algebras, including Virasoro algebras, new kinds of time-dependent evolution equations are found possessing graded symmetry algebras. The modified KP equations are taken as an illustrative example: new modified KP equations with $m$ arbitrary time-dependent coefficients are obtained possessing symmetries involving $m$ arbitrary functions of time. A particular graded symmetry algebra for the modified KP equations is derived in this connection homomorphic to the Virasoro algebras.

The author's recent results on an asymptotic description of the Schlesinger equation are generalized to the JMMS equation. As in the case of the Schlesinger equation, the JMMS equation is reformulated to include a small parameter $\epsilon$. By the method of multiscale analysis, the isomonodromic problem is approximated by slow modulations of an isospectral problem. A modulation equation of this slow dynamics is proposed, and shown to possess a number of properties similar to the Seiberg- Witten solutions of low energy supersymmetric gauge theories.

We introduce a new notion of "matrix potential" to nonlinear optical systems. In terms of a matrix potential $g$, we present a gauge field theoretic formulation of the Maxwell-Bloch equation that provides a semiclassical description of the propagation of optical pulses through resonant multi-level media. We show that the Bloch part of the equation can solved identically through $g$ and the remaining Maxwell equation becomes a second order differential equation with reduced set of variables due to the gauge invariance of the system. Our formulation clarifies the (nonabelian) symmetry structure of the Maxwell-Bloch equations for various multi-level media in association with symmetric spaces $G/H$. In particular, we associate nondegenerate two-level system for self-induced transparency with $G/H=SU(2)/U(1)$ and three-level $\L $- or V-systems with $G/H = SU(3)/U(2)$. We give a detailed analysis for the two-level case in the matrix potential formalism, and address various new properties of the system including soliton numbers, effective potential energy, gauge and discrete symmetries, modified pulse area, conserved topological and nontopological charges. The nontopological charge measures the amount of self-detuning of each pulse. Its conservation law leads to a new type of pulse stability analysis which explains nicely earlier numerical results.

We review some basic features of the Lie-algebraic classification of W-algebras and related integrable hierarchies in 1+1 dimensions, pointing out the role of affine Lie algebras. We emphasize that the supersymmetric extensions of the above construction possibly lead, though some questions are still opened, to the classification of supersymmetric hierarchies based on ``generic'' supersymmetric affine Lie algebras. Here the word generic is used to make clear that well-known procedures, as those introduced by Inami and Kanno, are too restricted and do not lead to the full spectrum of supersymmetric integrable hierarchies one can construct. A particular attention is devoted to the large-N supersymmetric extensions (here N=4). The attention paid by large-N theories being due to the fact that they arise as dimensional reduction of N=1 models, and moreover that they realize an ``unification'' of known hierarchies.

In this paper we compute the most general nondiagonal reflection matrices of the RSOS/SOS models and hard hexagon model using the boundary Yang-Baxter equations. We find new one-parameter family of reflection matrices for the RSOS model in addition to the previous result without any parameter. We also find three classes of reflection matrices for the SOS model, which has one or two parameters. For the hard hexagon model which can be mapped to RSOS(5) model by folding four RSOS heights into two, the solutions can be obtained similarly with a main difference in the boundary unitarity conditions. Due to this, the reflection matrices can have two free parameters. We show that these extra terms can be identified with the `decorated' solutions. We also generalize the hard hexagon model by `folding' the RSOS heights of the general RSOS(p) model and show that they satisfy the integrability conditions such as the Yang- Baxter and boundary Yang-Baxter equations. These models can be solved using the results for the RSOS models.

An algebro-geometric approach to representations of Sklyanin algebra is proposed. To each 2 \times 2 quantum L-operator an algebraic curve parametrizing its possible vacuum states is associated. This curve is called the vacuum curve of the L-operator. An explicit description of the vacuum curve for quantum L-operators of the integrable spin chain of XYZ type with arbitrary spin $\ell$ is given. The curve is highly reducible. For half-integer $\ell$ it splits into $\ell +{1/2}$ components isomorphic to an elliptic curve. For integer $\ell$ it splits into $\ell$ elliptic components and one rational component. The action of elements of the L-operator to functions on the vacuum curve leads to a new realization of the Sklyanin algebra by difference operators in two variables restricted to an invariant functional subspace.

Integrable equations in ($1 + 1$) dimensions have their own higher order integrable equations, like the KdV, mKdV and NLS hierarchies etc. In this paper we consider whether integrable equations in ($2 + 1$) dimensions have also the analogous hierarchies to those in ($1 + 1$) dimensions. Explicitly is discussed the Bogoyavlenskii-Schiff(BS) equation. For the BS hierarchy, there appears an ambiguity in the Painlev\'e test. Nevertheless, it may be concluded that the BS hierarchy is integrable.

We develop a systematic procedure of finding integrable ''relativistic'' (regular one-parameter) deformations for integrable lattice systems. Our procedure is based on the integrable time discretizations and consists of three steps. First, for a given system one finds a local discretization living in the same hierarchy. Second, one considers this discretization as a particular Cauchy problem for a certain 2-dimensional lattice equation, and then looks for another meaningful Cauchy problems, which can be, in turn, interpreted as new discrete time systems. Third, one has to identify integrable hierarchies to which these new discrete time systems belong. These novel hierarchies are called then ''relativistic'', the small time step $h$ playing the role of inverse speed of light. We apply this procedure to the Toda lattice (and recover the well-known relativistic Toda lattice), as well as to the Volterra lattice and a certain Bogoyavlensky lattice, for which the ''relativistic'' deformations were not known previously.

Uniform estimates for the decay structure of the $n$-soliton solution of the Korteweg-deVries equation are obtained. The KdV equation, linearized at the $n$-soliton solution is investigated in a class $\WW$ consisting of sums of travelling waves plus an exponentially decaying residual term. An analog of the kernel of the time-independent equation is proposed, leading to solvability conditions on the inhomogeneous term. Estimates on the inversion of the linearized KdV equation at the $n$-soliton are obtained.

We continue a recently developed systematic approach to the Bousinesq (Bsq) hierarchy and its algebro-geometric solutions. Our formalism includes a recursive construction of Lax pairs and establishes associated Burchnall-Chaundy curves, Baker-Akhiezer functions and Dubrovin-type equations for analogs of Dirichlet and Neumann divisors. The principal aim of this paper is a detailed theta function representation of all algebro-geometric quasi-periodic solutions and related quantities of the Bsq hierarchy.

An algebraic structure related to discrete zero curvature equations is established. It is used to give an approach for generating master symmetries of first degree for systems of discrete evolution equations and an answer to why there exist such master symmetries. The key of the theory is to generate nonisospectral flows $(\lambda_t=\lambda ^l, l\ge0)$ from the discrete spectral problem associated with a given system of discrete evolution equations. Three examples are given.

We prove that the tau-function of the integrable discrete sine-Gordon model apart from the "standard" bilinar identities obeys a number of "non-standard" ones. They can be combined into a bivector 3-dimensional difference equation which is shown to contain Hirota's difference analogue of the sine-Gordon equation and both auxiliary linear problems for it. We observe that this equation is most naturally written in terms of the quantum R-matrix for the XXZ spin chain and looks then like a relation of the "vertex-face correspondence" type.

We introduce a new concept, Stochastic Soliton Lattice, as a random process generated by a finite-gap potential of the Shroedinger operator. We study the basic properties of this stochastic process and consider its KdV evolution

Two discretizations of the vector nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation are studied. One of these discretizations, referred to as the symmetric system, is a natural vector extension of the scalar integrable discrete NLS equation. The other discretization, referred to as the asymmetric system, has an associated linear scattering pair. General formulae for soliton solutions of the asymmetric system are presented. Formulae for a constrained class of solutions of the symmetric system may be obtained. Numerical studies support the hypothesis that the symmetric system has general soliton solutions.

Using covering theory approach (zero-curvature representations with the gauge group SL2), we insert the spectral parameter into the Gauss-Mainardi-Codazzi equations in Tchebycheff and geodesic coordinates. For each choice, four integrable systems are obtained.

Using a Miura-Gardner-Kruskal type construction, we show that the Camassa-Holm equation has an infinite number of local conserved quantities. We explore the implications of these conserved quantities for global well-posedness.

The method of multiscale analysis is constructed for dicrete systems of evolution equations for which the problem is that of the far behavior of an input boundary datum. Discrete slow space variables are introduced in a general setting and the related finite differences are constructed. The method is applied to a series of representative examples: the Toda lattice, the nonlinear Klein-Gordon chain, the Takeno system and a discrete version of the Benjamin-Bona-Mahoney equation. Among the resulting limit models we find a discrete nonlinear Schroedinger equation (with reversed space-time), a 3-wave resonant interaction system and a discrete modified Volterra model.

Classical results of Stieltjes are used to obtain explicit formulas for the peakon-antipeakon solutions of the Camassa-Holm equation. The closed form solution is expressed in terms of the orthogonal polynomials of the related classical moment problem. It is shown that collisions occur only in peakon-antipeakon pairs, and the details of the collisions are analyzed using results {}from the moment problem. A sharp result on the steepening of the slope at the time of collision is given. Asymptotic formulas are given, and the scattering shifts are calculated explicitly

It is shown how to construct an infinite number of families of quasi-bi-Hamiltonian (QBH) systems by means of the constrained flows of soliton equations. Three explicit QBH structures are presented for the first three families of the constrained flows. The Nijenhuis coordinates defined by the Nijenhuis tensor for the corresponding families of QBH systems are proved to be exactly the same as the separated variables introduced by means of the Lax matrices for the constrained flows.

We present a novel integrable non-autonomous partial differential equation of the Schwarzian type, i.e. invariant under M\"obius transformations, that is related to the Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy. In fact, this PDE can be considered as the generating equation for the entire hierarchy of Schwarzian KdV equations. We present its Lax pair, establish its connection with the SKdV hierarchy, its Miura relations to similar generating PDEs for the modified and regular KdV hierarchies and its Lagrangian structure. Finally we demonstrate that its similarity reductions lead to the {\it full} Painlev\'e VI equation, i.e. with four arbitary parameters.

We examine the validity of the results obtained with the singularity confinement integrability criterion in the case of discrete Painlev\'e equations. The method used is based on the requirement of non-exponential growth of the homogeneous degree of the iterate of the mapping. We show that when we start from an integrable autonomous mapping and deautonomise it using singularity confinement the degrees of growth of the nonautonomous mapping and of the autonomous one are identical. Thus this low-growth based approach is compatible with the integrability of the results obtained through singularity confinement. The origin of the singularity confinement property and its necessary character for integrability are also analysed.

We study integrals of motion for Hirota bilinear difference equation that is satisfied by the eigenvalues of the transfer-matrix. The combinations of the eigenvalues of the transfer-matrix are found, which are integrals of motion for integrable discrete models for the $A_{k-1}$ algebra with zero and quasiperiodic boundary conditions. Discrete analogues of the equations of motion for the Bullough-Dodd model and non-Abelian generalization of Liouville model are obtained.

Three nonequivalent real forms of the complex twisted N=2 supersymmetric Toda chain hierarchy (solv-int/9907021) in real N=1 superspace are presented. It is demonstrated that they possess a global twisted N=2 supersymmetry. We discuss a new superfield basis in which the supersymmetry transformations are local. Furthermore, a representation of this hierarchy is given in terms of two twisted chiral N=2 superfields. The relations to the s-Toda hierarchy by H. Aratyn, E. Nissimov and S. Pacheva (solv-int/9801021) as well as to the modified and derivative NLS hierarchies are established.

Vertex operators, which are disguised Darboux maps, transform solutions of the KP equation into new ones. In this paper, we show that the bi-infinite sequence obtained by Darboux transforming an arbitrary KP solution recursively forward and backwards, yields a solution to the discrete KP-hierarchy. The latter is a KP hierarchy where the continuous space x-variable gets replaced by a discrete n-variable. The fact that these sequences satisfy the discrete KP hierarchy is tantamount to certain bilinear relations connecting the consecutive KP solutions in the sequence. At the Grassmannian level, these relations are equivalent to a very simple fact, which is the nesting of the associated infinite-dimensional planes (flag). It turns out that many new and old systems lead to such discrete (semi-infinite) solutions, like sequences of soliton solutions, with more and more solitons, sequences of Calogero-Moser systems, having more and more particles, band matrices, etc... ; this will be developped in another paper. In this paper, as an other example, we show that the q-KP hierarchy maps, via a kind of Fourier transform, into the discrete KP hierarchy, enabling us to write down a very large class of solutions to the q-KP hierarchy.

We show that the density of states in an anisotropic superconductor with intersecting line nodes in the gap function is proportional to $E log (\alpha \Delta_0 /E)$ for $|E| << \Delta_0$, where $\Delta_0$ is the maximum value of the gap function and $\alpha$ is constant, while it is proportional to $E$ if the line nodes do not intersect. As a result, a logarithmic correction appears in the temperature dependence of the NMR relaxation rate and the specific heat, which can be observed experimentally. By comparing with those for the heavy fermion superconductors, we can obtain information about the symmetry of the gap function.
