(2+1)-dimensional (M+N)-component AKNS system: Painleve integrability, infinitely many symmetries, similarity reductions and exact solutions

摘要

The (2+1)-dimensional (M+N)-component AKNS system that is derived from the inner parameter dependent symmetry constraint of the KP equation is studied in detail. First, the Painleve integrability of the model is proved by using the standard WTC and Kruskal approach. Using the formal series symmetry approach, the generalized KMV symmetry algebra and the related symmetry group are found. The two-dimensional similarity partial differential equation reductions and the ordinary differential equation reductions are obtained from the generalized KMV symmetry algebra and the direct method. Abundant localized coherent structures are revealed by the variable separation approach. Some special types of the localized excitations like the multiple solitoffs, dromions, lumps, ring solitons, breathers and instantons are plotted also. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
