Multidimensional quadrilateral lattices are integrable

Abstract: The notion of a multidimensional quadrilateral lattice is introduced. It is shown that such a lattice is characterized by a system of integrable discrete nonlinear equations. Different useful formulations of the system are given. The geometric construction of the lattice is also discussed and, in particular, the number of initial-boundary data is clarified, which define the lattice uniquely. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V

“…N ≤ M , whose elementary quadrilaterals are planar (i. e., a quadrilateral lattice) is the correct discrete analogue of a conjugate net [34,10]. The planarity condition can be expressed by the following linear equation (compare with (18))…”

“…Let us also mention that conjugate nets are connected with the description of the three wave resonant interaction. The discrete analogues of the conjugate nets, quadrilateral lattices, are central objects of the integrable discrete geometry which is developing nowadays [10,11]. Finally, Egoroff systems (a particular type of conjugate nets) have recently found application in topological field theory; namely, in the resolution of indescomposable Witten-Dickgraff-Verlinde-Verlinde associativity equations [12].…”
