摘要:
The full Kostant-Toda hierarchy on a semisimple Lie algebra is a system of Lax equations, in which the flows are determined by the gradients of the Chevalley invariants. This paper is concerned with the full Kostant-Toda hierarchy on the even orthogonal Lie algebra. By using a Pfaffian of the Lax matrix as one of the Chevalley invariants, we construct an explicit form of the flow associated to this invariant. As a main result, we introduce an extension of the Schur's Q-functions in the time variables, and use them to give all the polynomial Tau-functions of the hierarchy.(c) 2022 Elsevier B.V.
