Abstract:

A Bäcklund transformation in the bilinear form is presented for the Toda equation. The Backlund transformation generates an important class of nonlinear evolution equations that exhibits N-soliton solutions. The equation reduces, in the special cases, to the Toda equation itself, the nonlinear self-dual network equation, the equation describing a Volterra system and a discrete Korteweg-de Vries equation. Physical meanings and properties of solitons of these equations are examined in detail. Special solutions are also given to the generated equation. Moreover, a relation between the Bäcklund transformation and the inverse scattering method, and a nonlinear transformation relating the Toda equation and the generated equation are presented.
