Algebraic and geometric aspects of soliton equations
The soliton equations are nonlinear wave equations that originated in the 19th century to describe non-decaying waves.
It turned out that some of them are integrable: they have an infinite family of symmetries and can be solved exactly.
The course intends to provide an introduction to the theory of integrable soliton equations.
We will focus on the Korteweg–De Vries and Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations.
The course will cover basic constructions such as the Lax pair, the tau function, and the Hirota equation.
We will also consider their connection with the representation theory of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras and the theory of Riemann surfaces.
