Abstract. New extensions of the KP and modified KP hierarchies with self-consistent
sources are proposed. The latter provide new generalizations of (2+1)-dimensional integrable
equations, including the DS-III equation and the N -wave problem. Furthermore, we recover
a system that contains two types of the KP equation with self-consistent sources as special
cases. Darboux and binary Darboux transformations are applied to generate solutions of
the proposed hierarchies.

1 Introduction
In the past years, a lot of attention have been given to the study of Kadomtsev–Petviashvili
hierarchy (KP hierarchy) and its generalizations from both physical and mathematical points of
view [1, 13, 55, 57, 61, 74]. KP equation with self-consistent sources and related k-constrained
KP (k-cKP) hierarchy also present an interest [4, 9, 10, 33, 40, 42, 52, 53, 63, 64, 65, 78].
The latter hierarchy contains, in particular, nonlinear Schrödinger equation, Yajima–Oikawa
equation, extension of the Boussinesq equation and KdV equation with self-consistent sources.
A modified k-constrained KP (k-cmKP) hierarchy was proposed in [8, 43, 59]. The k-cKP
hierarchy was extended to 2+1 dimensions ((2+1)-dimensional k-cKP hierarchy) in [48, 54, 73].
A powerful solution generating method for nonlinear integrable systems is based on the Dar-
boux transformations (DT) and the binary Darboux transformations (BDT) [51]. The latter
transformations were also applied to k-cKP hierarchy and its (2 + 1)-dimensional extensions
(see [58, 82] and [47, 73] respectively). More general (2 + 1)-dimensional extensions of the k-
cKP hierarchy and the corresponding solutions were investigated in [11]. The latter hierar-
chies cover matrix generalizations of the Davey–Stewartson (DS) and Nizhnik–Novikov–Veselov
(NNV) systems, (2+1)-dimensional extensions of the Yajima–Oikawa and modified Korteweg–de
Vries equations.
Hamiltonian analysis for the above mentioned hierarchies, which is based on group-theoretical
and Lie-algebraic methods, was elaborated in [5, 31, 34, 68, 69, 70]. Analytical scheme of the
Hamiltonian analysis was described in [28].
The main aim of this work is to present new (2 + 1)-dimensional extensions of k-cKP and
modified k-cKP hierarchies. It is organized as follows. In Section 2 we consider reductions (2.2)
of Lax operators Lk and Mn involving nonzero integral terms with degenerate kernels. The
latter reductions allow us to obtain a hierarchy that is more general then (2 + 1)-dimensional

extensions of the k-cKP hierarchy that we considered in [11]. This is shown in Remark 2.5
(Section 2), which describes important special cases of the obtained hierarchy. KP hierarchy
as a special case is also included. In Section 2 we also list some nonlinear integrable systems
that are provided by Lax pairs (2.2). In particular, we get new generalizations of the N -wave
problem, the matrix Davey–Stewartson (DS-III) equation and the matrix KP equation with
self-consistent sources (KPSCS). Despite the fact that the latter systems have more compact
scalar counterparts, we also present their matrix versions due to the recent interest in matrix
and, more generally, noncommutative integrable systems (see, e.g., [14, 15, 32, 44, 71, 72, 75]).
In Section 3 we present a solution generating technique (dressing method) for hierarchies (2.2),
(2.6) using DTs and BDTs. New (2 + 1)-dimensional extensions of the modified k-cKP hierar-
chies and corresponding solution generating methods are discussed in Section 4. Some matrix
integrable equations from the respective hierarchy are also listed. This includes new exten-
sions of the matrix Chen–Lee–Liu equation and the modified KP equation with self-consistent
sources. A short summary of the obtained results and some problems for future investigation
are presented in Conclusions.
2 New (2 + 1)-dimensional generalizations
of the k-constrained KP hierarchy
Further we will use the calculus of the integro-differential (pseudo-differential) operators of the
form L =
l∑
i=−∞
fiD
i, l ∈ Z (see, e.g., [13]). Coefficients fi, i ∈ Z, are matrix-valued functions
and symbol D := ∂
∂x denotes the derivative with respect to x. Composition (multiplication) of
integro-differential operators is generated by the commutation rule:
Dnf :=
∞∑
j=0
(
n
j
)
f (j)Dn−j , f (j) :=
∂jf
∂xj
, n ∈ Z, (2.1)
where
(
n
0
)
:= 1,
(
n
j
)
:= n(n−1)···(n−j+1)
j! . Dnf stands for the composition of the operator Dn and
the operator of multiplication by matrix-valued function f , whereas by curly brackets we will
denote the action of the operator on the function, i.e., Dn{f} := f (n) = ∂nf
∂xn . More generally,
we will use notations L{f} and Lf in the same manner.
Consider Sato–Zakharov–Shabat dressing operator:
W = I + w1D
−1 + w2D
−2 + · · ·
with (N ×N)-matrix-valued coefficients wi. Introduce two differential operators βk∂τk −JkDk
and αn∂tn −J̃nDn, αn, βk ∈ C, n, k ∈ N, where Jk and J̃n are N ×N commuting matrices (i.e.,
[J̃n,Jk] = 0). It is evident that dressed operators have the form:
Lk := W
(
βk∂τk − JkD
k
)
W−1 = βk∂τk −Bk − u−1D
−1 − u−2D−2 − · · · ,
Mn := W
(
αn∂tn − J̃nDn
)
W−1 = αn∂tn −An − v−1D−1 − v−2D−2 − · · · ,
Bk =
k∑
j=0
ujD
j , uk = Jk, An =
n∑
i=0
viD
i, vn = J̃n,
where uj and vi are matrix-valued functions of dimension N×N . Impose the following reduction
on the integral parts of operators Lk and Mn:
Lk = βk∂τk −Bk − qM0D
−1r>, Mn = αn∂tn −An − q̃M̃0D
−1r̃>, (2.2)
Darboux Transformations for (2 + 1)-Dimensional Extensions of the KP Hierarchy 3
where q and r are matrix-valued functions with dimension N ×m; q̃ and r̃ are matrix-valued
functions with dimension N × m̃. M0 and M̃0 are constant matrices with dimensions m ×m
and m̃× m̃ respectively.
Reductions (2.2) generalize the corresponding analogues obtained in [11]. It will be shown
at the end of this section (reductions (2.11) and Remark 2.5). Moreover, Lax pairs given by Lk
and Mn (2.2) remain covariant under the action of Darboux and Binary Darboux Transfor-
mations (see Section 3), which allows to construct families of solutions for the corresponding
integrable systems. Lax pairs (2.2) can be also considered as matrix (2 + 1)-dimensional gene-
ralizations of the respective operators appearing in the study of dispersive analogues of Benny’s
equations [25].
For technical purposes we will use the following statement:
Proposition 2.1. For matrix-valued functions h1 and h2 and differential operator A =
l∑
i=0
fiD
i,
l ∈ N, with matrix-valued coefficients fi the following formulae hold:
Ah1D
−1h2 =
(
Ah1D
−1h2
)
≥0 +A{h1}D−1h2, (2.3)
h1D
−1h2A =
(
h1D
−1h2A
)
≥0 + h1D
−1[Aτ{h>2 }]>, (2.4)
D−1h1h2D
−1 = D−1{h1h2}D−1 −D−1D−1{h1h2}. (2.5)
Symbol > in the latter stands for the matrix transpose and Aτ denotes the transpose of A,
i.e., Aτ :=
l∑
i=0
(−1)iDif>i . Subscript ≥0 denotes the differential part of the respective operator
(e.g.,
( l∑
i=−∞
fiD
i
)
≥0 =
l∑
i=0
fiD
i).
Proof. All three formulae are consequences of the commutation rule (2.1). Let us check (2.4)
and (2.5). It is enough to prove (2.4) for A = flD
l. Using (2.1) we get
h1D
−1h2A− h1D−1
[

}]>

l − h1D−1(−1)n(h2fl)

(2.5) follows from the following computations:
D−1h1h2D
−1 +D−1D−1{h1h2} =
∞∑
i=0
(−1)i(h1h2)
(i)D−i−2

∞∑
j=0
(−1)j(h1h2)
(j−1)D−j−1 = (h1h2)
(−1)D−1 = D−1{h1h2}D−1. �
Remark 2.2. Formulae (2.3)–(2.5) can be found in [11, 79]. Since the respective references do
not contain the proof, we decided to present it in order to make the paper self-contained.
The following statement follows from Proposition 2.1.
Proposition 2.3. Assume that the following equations hold:
Lk{q̃} = q̃Λq̃, Lτk{r̃} = r̃Λr̃, Mn{q} = qΛq, M τ
n{r} = rΛr, (2.6)
4 O. Chvartatskyi and Yu. Sydorenko
where Λq, Λr and Λq̃, Λr̃ are constant matrices with dimensions (m×m) and (m̃× m̃) respec-
tively, that satisfy equations: Λq̃M̃0 − M̃0Λ
>
r̃ = 0, ΛqM0 −M0Λ
>
r = 0.
Then Lax equation [Lk,Mn] = 0 holds if and only if equation [Lk,Mn]≥0 = 0 is satisfied.
Proof. From the equality [Lk,Mn] = [Lk,Mn]≥0 + [Lk,Mn]<0 we obtain that Lax equation
[Lk,Mn] = 0 is equivalent to the following one:
[Lk,Mn]≥0 = 0, [Lk,Mn]<0 = 0.
Thus, it is sufficient to prove that equalities Lk{q̃} = q̃Λq̃, Lτk{r̃} = r̃Λr̃, Mn{q} = qΛq,
M τ
n{r} = rΛr imply [Lk,Mn]<0 = 0. From the form of operators Lk, Mn (2.2) we obtain:
[Lk,Mn]<0 =
[

[

−1r̃>
]
<0
+
[
αn∂tn −An,qM0D
−1r>
]
<0
. (2.7)
After direct computations for each of the three items at the right-hand side of formula (2.7)
we get:[
q̃M̃0D
−1r̃>, βk∂τk −Bk
]
<0

The latter formulae are consequences of (2.3)–(2.5). From formulae (2.7), (2.8) using (2.6) we
get
[Lk,Mn]<0 = Mn{q}M0D
−1r> − qM0D

D−1r>

D−1r̃> = 0.
From the last formula we obtain that equality [Lk,Mn] = 0 is equivalent to condition (2.6). �
Consider some nonlinear systems that hierarchy given by (2.2) and (2.6) contains. In all
examples listed below we assume that equations (2.6) hold. Due to Proposition 2.3 it implies the
equivalence of equations [Lk,Mn] = 0 and [Lk,Mn]≥0 = 0. For simplicity we set Λq = Λr = 0,
Λq̃ = Λr̃ = 0.
1. k = 1, n = 1. We shall use the following notation β := β1, α := α1, τ := τ1, t := t1.
Then (2.2) reads:
L1 = β∂τ − JD + [J,Q]− qM0D
−1r>, M1 = α∂t − J̃D + [J̃ , Q]− q̃M̃0D
−1r̃>,
where matrices J and J̃ commute. According to Proposition 2.3 the commutator equation
[L1,M1] = 0 is equivalent to the system:
β[J̃ , Qτ ]− α[J,Qt] + JQxJ̃ − J̃QxJ + [[J,Q], [J̃ , Q]] +
[
J, q̃M̃0r̃

S1,x = r>q̃, S2,x = r̃>q.
The latter system is a generalization of the N -wave problem [2, 76, 77, 84]. In case we set Q = 0
we obtain a noncommutative generalization of the nonlinear system of four waves [38, 39]. Under
the Hermitian conjugation reduction r̃ = ¯̃q, M0 =M∗0, M̃0 = M̃∗0, r = q̄, Q = −Q∗, α, β ∈ R,
J = J∗, J̃ = J̃∗ the latter system reads:
β[J̃ , Qτ ]− α[J,Qt] + JQxJ̃ − J̃QxJ + [[J,Q], [J̃ , Q]]
+ [J, q̃M̃0q̃
∗]− [q̃M̃0q̃
∗, J̃ ] = 0, S1,x = q∗q̃,
βq̃τ − J q̃x + [J,Q]q̃− qM0S1 = 0, αqt − J̃qx + [J̃ , Q]q− q̃M̃0S
∗
1 = 0.
2. k = 1, n = 2.
L1 = β1∂τ1 − qM0D
−1r>, M2 = α2∂t2 − cD2 + v − q̃M̃0D
−1r̃>, c ∈ C.
Lax equation [L1,M2] = 0 is equivalent to the following generalization of the DS-III equation:
β1q̃τ1 = qM0S1, β1r̃
>
τ1 = S2M0r
>, S1,x = r>q̃,
α2qt2 − cqxx + vq = q̃M̃0S2, α2r

t2 + cr>xx − r>v = S1M̃0r̃
>, S2,x = r̃>q,
β1vτ1 = 2
(
qM0r

x
.
If we set q̃ = 0, r̃ = 0 we recover the system
α2qt2 − cqxx + vq = 0, α2r
>
t2 + cr>xx − r>v = 0, β1vτ1 = 2
(
qM0r

x
,
which under reduction α2 ∈ iR, β1, c ∈ R,M0 =M∗0, v = v∗, r = q̄ becomes the matrix version
of the DS-III system (see [26]):
α2qt2 − cqxx + vq = 0, β1vτ1 = 2
(
qM0q
∗)
x
.
3. k = 3, n = 2. In this case we obtain the following pair of operators:
L3 = β3∂τ3 − c1
(
D3 − wD − u
)
− qM0D
−1r>,
M2 = α2∂t2 − c2
(
D2 − v
)
− q̃M̃0D
−1r̃>.
Equation [L3,M2] = 0 is equivalent to the following system:
c1c2(2w − 3v) = 0, −α2c1wt2 −

The latter consists of several special cases:
a) c1 = c2 = 1. In this case the latter system can be rewritten in the following way:

This system is a generalization of the KP equation with self-consistent sources (KPSCS). In

the inverse scattering method [6].

In case α2 ∈ iR, β3 ∈ R, M0 = M∗0, q = r̄, M̃0 = 0, q̃ = r̃ = 0 the latter becomes the
noncommutative generalization of the DS-III system.
Now we will show that (2 + 1)-BDk-cKP hierarchy presented in [11] can be recovered from
Lax operators (2.2). At first, let us put in formulae (2.2):
q̃ := (q̃1, clq[0], clq[1], . . . , clq[l]), r̃ := (r̃1, r[l], r[l − 1], . . . , r[0]),
M̃0 = diag(M̃1, Il+1 ⊗M0), (2.11)
Darboux Transformations for (2 + 1)-Dimensional Extensions of the KP Hierarchy 7
where q[j] = (Lk)
j{q}, r[j] = (Lτk)j{r}, j = 0, l. I.e., m̃ = m̃1 + m(l + 1) and matrices q̃
and r̃ consist of N × m̃1-matrix-valued blocks q̃1 and r̃1 and (N ×m)-matrix-valued blocks q[j]
and r[j], j = 0, l. M̃0 is a block-diagonal matrix and Il+1⊗M0 stands for the tensor product of
the (l+1)-dimensional identity matrix Il+1 and matrixM0. Then we get the following operators
in (2.2):
Lk = βk∂τk −Bk − qM0D

The following proposition holds:
Proposition 2.4. Assume that equations

n,l{r} = cl(L

Lk{q̃1} = q̃1Λq̃1 , Lτk{r̃1} = r̃1Λr̃1 (2.13)
with constant matrices Λq̃1 and Λr̃1 are satisfied, where the latter solve Λq̃1M̃1 − M̃1Λ

r̃1
= 0.
Then Lax equation [Lk,Mn,l] = 0 holds if and only if its differential part is equal to zero, i.e.,
[Lk,Mn,l]≥0 = 0.
Proof. The proof is similar to the proof of the Proposition 2.3 and the proof of the Theorem 1
in [11]. �
Remark 2.5. Setting q̃1 = 0 and r̃1 = 0 in (2.12) we recover (2 + 1)-BDk-cKP hierarchy (Lax
pairs (2.12) with equations (2.13)) that contains the following subcases:
1. βk = 0, cl = 0. Under this assumption we obtain matrix k-constrained KP hierarchy [58].
We shall point out that the case βk = 0 and cl 6= 0 also leads to matrix k-constrained KP
hierarchy.
2. cl = 0, N = 1, vn = uk = 1, vn−1 = uk−1 = 0. In this way we recover (2+1)-dimensional k-
cKP hierarchy [73].
3. n = 0. The differential part of M0,l (2.12) is equal to zero in this case (A0 = 0) and we
get a new generalization of DS-III hierarchy.
4. cl = 0. We obtain (tA, τB)-matrix KP hierarchy that was investigated in [36].
5. If l = 0 we recover (γA, σB)-matrix KP hierarchy [37].
6. Case N = 1, q = 0, r = 0 leads to KP hierarchy.
3 Dressing methods for the new (2 + 1)-dimensional
generalizations of k-constrained KP hierarchy
3.1 Dressing via Darboux transformations
In this section we will consider Darboux transformations (DT) for the pair of operators (2.2)
and its reduction (2.12). At first, we shall start with the linear problem associated with the
8 O. Chvartatskyi and Yu. Sydorenko
operator Lk (2.2):
Lk{ϕ1} = βk(ϕ1)τk −
k∑
j=0
uj(ϕ1)
(j) − qM0D
−1{r>ϕ1
}
= ϕ1Λ1,
where ϕ1 is (N × N)-matrix-valued function; Λ1 is a constant matrix with dimension N × N .
Introduce the DT in the following way:
W1[ϕ1] = ϕ1Dϕ
−1
1 = D − ϕ1,xϕ
−1
1 . (3.1)
The following proposition holds.
Proposition 3.1. The operator L̂k[1] := W1[ϕ1]LkW
−1
1 [ϕ1] obtained from Lk (2.2) via DT (3.1)
has the form
L̂k[1] := W1[ϕ1]LkW
−1

where
q̂1 = W1[ϕ1]{q}, r̂1 = W−1,τ1 [ϕ1]{r}.
ûj [1] are (N ×N)-matrix coefficients depending on function ϕ1 and coefficients ui, i = 0, k. In
particular, ûk[1] = uk.
Proof. It is evident that the inverse operator to (3.1) has the form W−11 [ϕ1] = ϕ1D
−1ϕ−11 .
Thus, we have
L̂k[1] = W1[ϕ1]LkW

formulae (2.3)–(2.5) we have:

It is also possible to generalize the latter theorem to the case of finite number of solutions of
linear problems associated with the operator Lk. Namely, let functions ϕs, s = 1,K be solutions
of the problems:
Lk{ϕs} = βk(ϕs)τk −
k∑
j=0
uj(ϕs)
(j) − qM0D
−1{r>ϕs} = ϕsΛs, s = 1,K. (3.2)
For further convenience we shall use the notations ϕs[1] := ϕs, s = 1,K and define the following
functions:
ϕs[2] = W1[ϕ1[1]]{ϕs[1]}, s = 2,K. (3.3)
Darboux Transformations for (2 + 1)-Dimensional Extensions of the KP Hierarchy 9
Now, using functions ϕ1[1], ϕ2[2], we shall define functions ϕs[3], s = 3,K:
ϕs[3] := W1[ϕ2[2]]{ϕs[2]} = W1[ϕ2[2]]W1[ϕ1[1]]{ϕs[1]}, s = 3,K.
At the p-th step we obtain functions: ϕs[p] := W1[ϕp−1[p − 1]]{ϕs[p − 1]} = W1[ϕp−1[p −
1]] · · ·W1[ϕ2[2]]W1[ϕ1[1]]{ϕs[1]}, s = p,K. Now we shall construct the following generalization
of DT (3.1):
WK [ϕ1, . . . , ϕK ] = W1[ϕK [K]] · · ·W1[ϕ1[1]]
=
(
D − ϕK,x[K]ϕ−1K [K]
)
· · ·
(
D − ϕ1,x[1]ϕ−11 [1]
)
. (3.4)
The following statement holds:
Proposition 3.2. The operator
L̂k[K] := WK [ϕ1[1], ϕ2[1], . . . , ϕK [1]]LkW
−1
K [ϕ1[1], ϕ2[1], . . . , ϕK [1]] = WKLkW
−1
K
obtained from Lk (2.12) via DT (3.4) has the form
L̂k[K] := WKLkW
−1
K = βk∂τk − B̂k[K]− q̂KM0D
−1r̂>K , B̂k[K] =
k∑
j=0
ûj [K]Dj ,
where
q̂K = WK [ϕ1[1], . . . , ϕK [1]]{q}, r̂K = W−1,τK [ϕ1[1], . . . , ϕK [1]]{r}.
ûj [K] are (N ×N)-matrix coefficients depending on functions ϕs, s = 1,K and coefficients ui,
i = 0, k. In particular, ûk[K] = uk.
Proof. The proof can be done via induction by K. Namely, assume that the statement holds
for K − 1. I.e.,
L̂k[K − 1] = WK−1LkW
−1
K−1 = βk∂τk − B̂k[K − 1]− q̂K−1M0D
−1r̂>K−1, (3.5)
with q̂K−1 = WK−1[ϕ1[1], . . . , ϕK−1[1]]{q} and r̂K−1 = W−1,τK−1 [ϕ1[1], . . . , ϕK−1[1]]{r}. The
function ϕK [K] = WK−1{ϕK [1]} = WK−1[ϕ1, . . . , ϕK−1]{ϕK [1]} (see formulae (3.3), (3.4)) satis-
fies the equation: L̂k[K − 1]{ϕK [K]} = WK−1LkW
−1
K−1{WK−1{ϕK [1]}} =
= WK−1Lk{ϕK [1]} = ϕK [K]ΛK .
Now, it remains to apply Proposition 3.1 to operator L̂k[K−1] (3.5) with the DT W1[ϕK [K]]
(see formula (3.1)) and use formula WK = W1[ϕK [K]]WK−1 that immediately follows from (3.4).
�
Remark 3.3. We shall also point out that in a scalar case (N = 1) the DT WK (3.4) can be
rewritten in the following way:
WK :=
1
W[ϕ1, ϕ2, . . . , ϕK ]

where W[ϕ1, ϕ2, . . . , ϕK ] denotes the Wronskian constructed by solutions ϕj , j = 1, . . . ,K, of
the linear problem (3.2). It acts on the vector-valued function q = (q1, . . . , qm) in the following
way: WK{q} = (WK{q1}, . . . ,WK{qm}), where WK{qj} =
W[ϕ1,ϕ2,...,ϕK ,qj ]
W[ϕ1,ϕ2,...,ϕK ] .
10 O. Chvartatskyi and Yu. Sydorenko
The Darboux transformations (3.1), (3.4) are widely used for the solution generating tech-
nique involving Lax pairs consisting of differential operators [29, 30, 50, 51, 66]. Corresponding
extensions to integro-differential cases of Lax pairs were made in [47, 54, 58, 60, 73] to con-
struct solutions of constrained KP hierarchies and their generalizations. Transformations that
generalize (3.1), (3.4) also arise in the bidifferential calculus approach to integrable systems and
their hierarchies [16, 18]. In contrast to (3.4), formula (3.6) does not require iterative applica-
tions of DTs and therefore can be used more effectively in the scalar case. We point out that
in the matrix (noncommutative) case (3.6) is not valid anymore. However, the corresponding
quasideterminant representations can be used (see, e.g., [29, 30]).
From Proposition 3.2 we obtain the corollary for Lax pairs (2.2). Namely, let functions ϕs,
s = 1,K be solutions of the problems:
Lk{ϕs} = βk(ϕs)τk −
k∑
j=0
uj(ϕs)

Then the following statement holds:
Corollary 3.4. Assume that Lax equation with operators Lk and Mn (2.2) holds: [Lk,Mn] = 0.
Then:

ˆ̃qK = WK [ϕ1[1], . . . , ϕK [1]]{q̃}, ˆ̃rK = W−1,τK [ϕ1[1], . . . , ϕK [1]]{r̃}.
2. The operators L̂k[K] and M̂n[K] (3.7) satisfy Lax equation: [L̂k[K], M̂n[K]] = 0.
3. In case of reduction (2.11) in Lax pair (2.2) we have:
ˆ̃qK = (ˆ̃q1,K , clq̂K [0], . . . , clq̂K [l]), ˆ̃rK = (ˆ̃r1,K , r̂K [0], . . . r̂K [l]),
where
ˆ̃q1,K = WK{q̃1}, ˆ̃r1,K = W−1,τK {r̃1},
q̂[j] = (L̂k[K])j{q̂K}, r̂[j] = (L̂τk[K])j{r̂K}, j = 0, l.

Proof. 1. Form (3.7) of operators L̂k[K], M̂n[K] follows from Proposition 3.2.

{WK{q}} = L̂k[K]{q̂K}
we get the form of ˆ̃qK mentioned in item 3. The form of ˆ̃rK can be obtained in a similar way. �
3.2 Dressing via binary Darboux transformations
In this section we will show that results of paper [80] on binary Darboux transformations (BDT)
for linear integro-differential operators can be extended to families of Lax pairs given by (2.2).
Namely, let (N ×K)-matrix functions ϕ and ψ be solutions of linear problems:
Lk{ϕ} = ϕΛk, Lτk{ψ} = ψΛ̃k, Λk, Λ̃k ∈ MatK×K(C).
Following [80] we introduce BDT in the following way:
W = I − ϕ
(
C +D−1
{
ψ>ϕ
})−1
D−1ψ>, (3.8)
where C is a K ×K-constant nondegenerate matrix. The inverse operator W−1 has the form:
W−1 = I + ϕD−1
(
C +D−1{ψ>ϕ}
)−1
ψ>.
The following theorem is proven in [80].
Theorem 3.5. The operator L̂k := WLkW
−1 obtained from Lk in (2.2) via BDT (3.8) has the
form
L̂k := WLkW

ûj are (N ×N)-matrix coefficients depending on functions ϕ, ψ and uj. In particular,
ûk = uk, ûk−1 = uk−1 +
[
uk, ϕ

]
.
Solution generating method for the hierarchy (2.2)–(2.6) is given by the corollary, which
follows from the previous theorem.

Lk{ϕ} = ϕΛk,1, L

with operators Lk and Mn (2.2) satisfying [Lk,Mn] = 0. Then transformed operators L̂k and M̂n

ûj are (N ×N)-matrix coefficients depending on functions ϕ, ψ and uj, vi. In particular,

Proof. From formulae W [Lk,Mn]W−1 = [L̂k, M̂n] = 0 we obtain that Lax equation with
transformed operators is satisfied. Form (3.9) of the transformed operators L̂k and M̂n follows
from Theorem 3.5. �
BDTs were used to generate solutions of the constrained KP hierarchies in [56, 82] and
they were also applied to (2 + 1)-BDk-cKP hierarchy in [11]. Theorem 3.5 with Corollary 3.6
extend the respective results to (2 + 1)-dimensional generalizations of the k-constrained KP
hierarchy (2.2), (2.6).
4 New (2 + 1)-dimensional generalizations
of the modified k-constrained KP hierarchy
We will investigate the following (2+1)-dimensional generalizations of the modified k-constrained
KP (k-cmKP) hierarchy:
Lk = βk∂τk −Bk − qM0D
−1r>D, Bk =
k∑
j=1
ujD
j , uj = uj(x, τk, tn), βk ∈ C,
Mn = αn∂tn −An − q̃M̃0D
−1r̃>D, An =
n∑
i=1
viD
i, vi = vi(x, τk, tn), αn ∈ C,(4.1)
where uj and vi are matrix-valued functions of dimension N × N ; q and r are matrix-valued
functions of dimension N ×m; q̃ and r̃ are matrix-valued functions with dimension N × m̃. M0
and M̃0 are constant matrices with dimensions m×m and m̃× m̃ respectively.
Using equality (2.4) we can rewrite operators (4.1) as
Lk = βk∂τk −Bk − qM0r
> + qM0D
−1r>x ,
Mn = αn∂tn −An − q̃M̃0r̃
> + q̃M̃0D
−1r̃>x . (4.2)
From the latter it becomes clear that (4.1) can be considered as a reduction in (2.2) (Bk →
Bk+qM0r
>, r> → −r>x ). However, Lax pairs (4.1) provide us with different (2+1)-dimensional
Darboux Transformations for (2 + 1)-Dimensional Extensions of the KP Hierarchy 13
equations (see (4.4) and (4.5)). In addition, they require different kind of BDT (see Theorem 4.2
with its corollary) for the corresponding solution generating technique.
Setting q̃ = 0, r̃ = 0, N = 1 in (4.1) we recover (2 + 1)-dimensional k-cmKP hierarchy [47].
The following proposition holds:
Proposition 4.1. Lax equation [Lk,Mn] = 0 is satisfied in case the following equations hold:
[Lk,Mn]≥0 = 0, Lk{q̃} = q̃Λq̃,
(
D−1LτkD
)
{r̃} = r̃Λr̃,
Mn{q} = qΛq,
(
D−1M τ
nD
)
{r} = rΛr, (4.3)
where Λq, Λr, Λq̃, Λr̃ are constant matrices with dimensions (m×m) and (m̃× m̃) respectively
that satisfy equations: Λq̃M̃0 − M̃0Λ
>
r̃ = 0, ΛqM0 −M0Λ
>
r = 0.
Proof. The proof is a direct consequence of reductions (4.2) and Proposition 2.3. �
Consider some examples of the hierarchy given by (4.1) and (4.3).
1. k = 1, n = 2.
L1 = β1∂τ1 −D − qM0D
−1r>D,
M2 = α2∂t2 −D2 − vD − q̃M̃0D
−1r̃>D.
Lax representation [L1,M2] = 0 is equivalent to the following system:
α2qt2 − qxx − vqx − q̃M̃0D
−1{r̃>qx} = qΛq,
−α2rt2 − rxx + v>rx − r̃M̃>0 D−1

In case of the Hermitian conjugation reduction β1 ∈ R, α2 ∈ iR, M∗0 = −M0, M̃∗0 = M̃0,
¯̃r = q̃, r̄ = q, v = −v∗ (L∗1 = −DL1D
−1, M∗2 = DM2D
−1) the latter equation reduces to the
following one:
α2qt2 − qxx − vqx − q̃M̃0D

Darboux Transformations for (2 + 1)-Dimensional Extensions of the KP Hierarchy 15
4.1 Dressing via binary Darboux transformations
In this subsection we consider dressing methods for (2 + 1)-dimensional extensions of the
modified k-constrained KP hierarchy given by (4.1) and (4.3). First of all, we start with the
matrix version of the theorem that was proven in [12].
Theorem 4.2. Let (N ×K)-matrix functions ϕ and ψ satisfy linear problems:
Lk{ϕ} = ϕΛk, L
τ
k{ψ} = ψΛ̃k, Λk, Λ̃k ∈ MatK×K(C),
Lk = βk∂τk −Bk − qM0D

Then the operator Lk transformed via
Wm := w−10 W = w−10
(
I − ϕ∆−1D−1ψ>
)
= I − ϕ∆̃−1D−1(D−1{ψ})>D, (4.6)

{

C−1,> = D−1{ψ}∆−1,>, q̂ = Wm{q}, r̂ = D−1W−1,τm D{r}.
Proof. The proof is analogous to the proof of Theorem 2 in [12]. �
The following consequence of the latter theorem provides a solution generating method for the
hierarchy given by (4.1) and (4.3):
Corollary 4.3. Let (N ×K)-matrix functions ϕ and ψ satisfy linear problems:
Lk{ϕ} = ϕΛk,1, Lτk{ψ} = ψΛ̃k,1, Λk,1, Λ̃k,1 ∈ MatK×K(C),

5 Conclusion
In this work we proposed new integrable generalizations of the KP and modified KP hierarchy
with self-consistent sources. The obtained hierarchies of nonlinear equations include, in particu-
lar, matrix integrable system that contains as special cases two types of the matrix KP equation
with self-consistent sources (KPSCS) and its modified version. They also cover new generaliza-
tions of the N -wave problem and the DS-III system. Under reductions (2.11) imposed on the
obtained hierarchies one recovers (2 + 1)-BDk-cKP hierarchy. The latter contains (tA, τB)- and
(γA, σB)-matrix KP hierarchies [36, 37] (see [11] for details).
Remark 5.1. It should be pointed out that in the scalar case (N = 1) Lax pairs (4.1) admit
the following reduction:
q =
(
q1,q2,−q2M0r
>
2 −D−1{u}, 1
)
, r =
(
r1, D
−1{r2}, 1, D−1{u}
)
,
q̃ =
(
q̃1, q̃2,−q̃2M̃1r̃
>
2 −D−1{ũ}, 1,q1[0],q1[1], . . . ,q1[l]
)
, q1[j] := Lj{q1},
r̃ =
(
r̃1, r̃2, 1, D
−1{ũ}, r1[l], r1[l − 1], . . . , r1[0]
)
, r1[j] := (Lτ )j{r1},
M0 = diag(M1,M1, 1, 1), M̃0 = diag(M̃1,M̃1, 1, 1, Il+1 ⊗M1),
where qj , rj and q̃j , r̃j , j = 1, 2, are vectors of functions of dimensions (1×m0) and (1× m̃0)
respectively. M1 and M̃1 are square matrices of dimensions m0 and m̃0. Il+1 ⊗M1 denotes
the tensor product of the identity matrix Il+1 and M1.
It leads to the following family of integro-differential operators in (4.1)
Lk = βk∂τk −Bk − q1M1D
−1r>1 D + q2M1D
−1r>2 +D−1u,
Mn = αn∂tn −An − q̃1M̃1D
−1r̃>1 D + q̃2M̃1D
−1r̃>2 +D−1ũ
− cl
l∑
j=0
q1[j]M0D
−1r>1 [l − j]D.
Lax equation [Lk,Mn] = 0 involving the latter operators should lead (under additional reduc-
tions) to (2 + 1)-dimensional generalizations of the corresponding integrable systems that were
obtained in [12]. In particular it concerns systems that extend KdV, mKdV and Kaup–Broer
equations.
In this paper we also elaborated solution generating methods for the proposed hierarchies
(2.2), (2.6) and (4.1), (4.3) respectively via DTs and BDTs.
The latter involve fixed solutions of linear problems and an arbitrary seed (initial) solution
of the corresponding integrable system. Exact solutions of equations with self-consistent sources
(complexitons, negatons, positons) and the underlying hierarchies were studied in [36, 49, 85].
One of the problems for future interest consists in looking for the corresponding analogues of
these solutions in the obtained generalizations. The same question concerns lumps and rogue
wave solutions that were investigated in several integrable systems recently [3, 20, 21, 22, 23,
24, 62, 81]
It is also known that inverse scattering and spectral methods [1, 7, 41, 57] were applied to
generate solutions of equations with self-consistent sources [6, 27, 46]. An extension of these
methods to the obtained hierarchies and comparison with results that can be provided by BDTs
(e.g., following [67]) presents an interest for us.
The search for the corresponding discrete counterparts of the constructed hierarchies is an-
other problem for future investigation. The latter is expected to contain the discrete KP equa-
tion with self-consistent sources [19, 35]. One of the possible ways to solve the problem consists
in looking for the formulation of the corresponding continuous hierarchy within a framework
of bidifferential calculus. The latter framework provides better possibilities to search for the
discrete counterparts of the corresponding continuous systems (see, e.g., [17]).
