Open full text 6 citations

Abstract

Starting from the Toda spectral problem, a new Toda lattice hierarchy of isospectral equations with variable coefficients is constructed through the discrete zero curvature equation. In order to solve one special case of the derived Toda lattice hierarchy, a series of appropriate transformations are utilized. As a result, a new uniform formula of N-wave solutions is obtained.
