On an integrable multi-component Camassa–Holm system arising from Möbius geometry

Abstract

In this paper, we mainly study the geometric background, integrability and peaked solutions of a ( 1 + n ) -component Camassa–Holm (CH) system and some related multi-component integrable systems. Firstly, we show this system arises from the invariant curve flows in the Möbius geometry and serves as the dual integrable counterpart of a geometrical ( 1 + n ) -component Korteweg–de Vries system in the sense of tri-Hamiltonian duality. Moreover, we obtain an integrable two-component modified CH system using a generalized Miura transformation. Finally, we provide a necessary condition, under which the dual integrable systems can inherit the Bäcklund correspondence from the original ones.
