1. Sigma model instantons and singular tau function

E. N. Antonov ; A. Yu. Orlov.
The generating series for the instanton contribution to Green functions of the $2D$ sigma model was found in the works of Schwarz, Fateev and Frolov. We show that this series can be written as a formal tau function of the two-sided two-component KP hierarchy. We call it formal singular tau function because this tau function is a sum where each term is the infrared and ultraviolet divergent one exactly as the series found by the mentioned authors. However one can regularize this singluar tau function and to obtain regular observables. This is because observables contains ratious of mentioned divergent expressions. Thus, we enladge the families of tau functions to work with.

2. Simple conditions for the transformation of dynamical coordinates into canonical ones in Hamiltonian dynamics

Patrick Cassam-Chenaï.
We obtain conditions, which when fulfilled, permit to transform the coordinates of a dynamical system into pairs of canonical ones for some Hamiltonian system. These conditions, restricted to the class of coordinate transformations which act on each coordinate independently, are greatly simplified. However, they are surprisingly successful in defining canonical coordinates and an associated Hamiltonian for several test examples. So, a method is proposed to exploit these simple transformations in a systematic manner.

3. On some dynamical features of the complete Moran model for neutral evolution in the presence of mutations

Giuseppe Gaeta.
We present a version of the classical Moran model, in which mutations are taken into account; the possibility of mutations was introduced by Moran in his seminal paper, but it is more often overlooked in discussing the Moran model. For this model, fixation is prevented by mutation, and we have an ergodic Markov process; the equilibrium distribution for such a process was determined by Moran. The problems we consider in this paper are those of first hitting either one of the ``pure'' (uniform population) states, depending on the initial state; and that of first hitting times. The presence of mutations leads to a nonlinear dependence of the hitting probabilities on the initial state, and to a larger mean hitting time compared to the mutation-free process (in which case hitting corresponds to fixation of one of the alleles).

4. Potentialisations of a class of fully-nonlinear symmetry-integrable evolution equations

Marianna Euler ; Norbert Euler.
We consider here the class of fully-nonlinear symmetry-integrable third-order evolution equations in 1+1 dimensions that were proposed recently in the journal Open Communications in Nonlinear Mathematical Physics, vol. 2, 216--228 (2022). In particular, we report all zero-order and higher-order potentialisations for this class of equations using their integrating factors (or multipliers) up to order four. Chains of connecting evolution equations are also obtained by multi-potentialisations.

5. A study on the domain independence of the Laurent property, the irreducibility and the coprimeness in lattice equations

Takafumi Mase.
We study the Laurent property, the irreducibility and the coprimeness for lattice equations (partial difference equations), mainly focusing on how the choice of initial value problem (the choice of domain) affects these properties. We show that these properties do not depend on the choice of domain as long as they are considered together. In other words, these properties are inherent to a difference equation. Applying our result, we discuss the reductions of lattice equations. We show that any reduction of a Laurent system, even if the lattices have torsion elements, preserves the Laurent property.

6. Lie symmetry analysis of (2+1)-dimensional time fractional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation

Jicheng Yu ; Yuqiang Feng.
In this paper, Lie symmetry analysis method is applied to the (2+1)-dimensional time fractional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation with the mixed derivative of Riemann-Liouville time-fractional derivative and integer-order $x$-derivative. We obtained all the Lie symmetries admitted by the KP equation and used them to reduce the (2+1)-dimensional fractional partial differential equation with Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative to some (1+1)-dimensional fractional partial differential equations with Erdélyi-Kober fractional derivative or Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative, thereby getting some exact solutions of the reduced equations. In addition, the new conservation theorem and the generalization of Noether operators are developed to construct the conservation laws for the equation studied.

7. $W_{1+\infty}$ flows and multi-component hierarchy (KP case)

A. Yu. Orlov.
We show that abelian subalgebras of generalized $W_{1+\infty}$ ($GW_{1+\infty}$) algebra gives rise to the multicomponent KP flows. The matrix elements of the related group elements in the fermionic Fock space is expressed as a product of a certain factor (generalized content product) and of a number of the Schur functions and the skew Schur functions.

8. Effective quantum dynamics for magnetic fermions

Margherita Ferrero ; Domenico Monaco.
We show how to derive an effective nonlinear dynamics, described by the Hartree-Fock equations, for fermionic quantum particles confined to a two-dimensional box and in presence of an external, uniform magnetic field. The derivation invokes the Dirac-Frenkel principle. We discuss the validity of this effective description with respect to the many-body Schrödinger dynamics for small times and for weak interactions, and also in regards to the number of particles.

9. The Volterra Integrable case. Novel analytical and numerical results

M. Scalia ; O. Ragnisco ; B. Tirozzi ; F. Zullo.
In the present paper we reconsider the integrable case of the Hamiltonian $N$-species Volterra system, as it has been introduced by Vito Volterra in 1937 and significantly enrich the results already published in the ArXiv in 2019 by two of the present authors (M. Scalia and O. Ragnisco). In fact, we present a new approach to the construction of conserved quantities and comment about the solutions of the equations of motion; we display mostly new analytical and numerical results, starting from the classical predator-prey model and arriving at the general $N$-species model
