On time evolutions associated with the nonstationary Schrödinger equation
Abstract
Description
The set of integrable symmetries of the nonstationary Schrödinger equation is shown to admit a natural decomposition into subsets of mutually commuting symmetries. Hierarchies of time evolutions associated with each of these subsets ultimately lead to nonlinear (possibly, operator) equations of the Kadomtsev--Petviashvili I type or its higher analogues, thus demonstrating that the linear problem itself constructively determines the associated nonlinear integrable evolution equations and their hierarchies.
