Prolongation Loop Algebras for a Solitonic System of Equations

We consider an integrable system of reduced Maxwell-Bloch equations that describes the evolution of an electromagnetic field in a two-level medium that is inhomogeneously broadened. We prove that the relevant Bäcklund transformation preserves the reality of the n-soliton potentials and establish the...

Description
Summary:We consider an integrable system of reduced Maxwell-Bloch equations that describes the evolution of an electromagnetic field in a two-level medium that is inhomogeneously broadened. We prove that the relevant Bäcklund transformation preserves the reality of the n-soliton potentials and establish their pole structure with respect to the broadening parameter. The natural phase space of the model is embedded in an infinite dimensional loop algebra. The dynamical equations of the model are associated to an infinite family of higher order Hamiltonian systems that are in involution. We present the Hamiltonian functions and the Poisson brackets between the extended potentials.
