SUPERSYMMETRIC TWO-BOSON EQUATION, ITS REDUCTIONS AND THE NONSTANDARD SUPERSYMMETRIC KP HIERARCHY

Abstract

In this paper, we review various properties of the supersymmetric Two-Boson (sTB) system. We discuss the equation and its nonstandard Lax representation. We construct the local conserved charges as well as the Hamiltonian structures of the system, and show how this system leads to various other known supersymmetric integrable models under appropriate field redefinition. We discuss the sTB and the supersymmetric nonlinear Schrödinger (sNLS) equations as constrained, nonstandard supersymmetric Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (sKP) systems and note that the nonstandard sKP systems naturally unify all the KP and mKP flows while leading to a new integrable supersymmetrization of the KP equation. We construct the nonlocal conserved charges associated with the sTB system and show that the algebra of charges corresponds to a graded, cubic algebra. Also, we note that the sTB system has a hidden supersymmetry making it an N=2 extended supersymmetric system.
