Solitons and almost-intertwining matrices

Abstract: Abstract. We define the algebraic variety of almost intertwining matrices to be the set of triples (X, Y, Z) of n × n matrices for which XZ = Y X + T for a rank one matrix T . A surprisingly simple formula is given for tau-functions of the KP hierarchy in terms of such triples. The tau-functions produced in this way include the soliton and vanishing rational solutions. The induced dynamics of the eigenvalues of the matrix X are considered, leading in special cases to the Ruijsenaars-Schneider particle system.

“…It is known that this formula gives a tau-function of the KP hierarchy precisely when the matrix XZ − Y X has rank one [18], but as this happens to be the lower-left block of the matrix S we can now also see this as a consequence of Theorem 3.5.…”
