Quasi-Integrability of The KdV System

Abstract: The quasi-integrable KdV equation has been obtained from the corresponding deformation of the Hamiltonian for the usual KdV system. Following suitable gauge-fixing, it has been found that the quasi-conservation condition is satisfied and an infinite number of anomalous conservation laws are obtained, with some containing possible conserved charges. Judicious choice of deformation of the Hamiltonian clearly leads to a conserved charge, manifesting quasi-integrability, but also creates a hierarchy of higher-derivative equations with at least one conserved charge. A particular quasi-deformation parameterization of the Hamiltonian is found to complement the same of the NLS system, following an approximate equivalence of the two systems obtained earlier, in the weak coupling limit. Single-soliton solutions for all these cases are obtained, with manifest scaling due to the quasi-integrable deformation. Finally, quasi-conservation formulation for the complex coupled generalized KdV system is obtained.
