Constraints of the 2+1 dimensional integrable soliton systems

Yi Cheng, Yishen Li

Abstract

The authors show that the linear systems associated with some integrable hierarchies of the soliton equations in 2+1 dimensions can be constrained to integrable hierarchies in 1+1 dimensions such that submanifolds solutions of the given systems in 2+1 can be obtained by solving the resulting integrable systems in 1+1 dimensions. The constraints of the KP hierarchy to the AKNS and Burgers hierarchies respectively are shown in detail and the results of these for the modified KP and 2+1 dimensional analogue of the Caudrey-Dodd-Gibbon-Kotera-Sawata equations to several integrable systems in 1+1 are given.
