Elliptic Ruijsenaars-Toda and elliptic Toda chains: classical r-matrix structure and relation to XYZ chain
D. Murinov, A. Zotov
TL;DR
We study the elliptic Toda chain and the elliptic Ruijsenaars-Toda chain and show that each arises as a reduction of the periodic elliptic ${\rm GL}_N$ Ruijsenaars chain. We construct the classical $r$-matrix structures via center-of-mass reformulations and explicit Lax representations, and prove gauge equivalence to the classical XYZ chain (with appropriate Casimir constraints) and to a higher-rank Landau-Lifshitz XYZ system. We introduce an $\eta$-dependent formulation and a homogeneous/generalized $\eta_a$ scheme, and analyze the $\eta\to 0$ limit to obtain the elliptic Toda chain and its relation to XYZ. The work unifies these elliptic integrable systems by providing concrete Lax pairs, Poisson structures, and gauge-transforms linking them to spin-chain/LL-type models.
Abstract
We discuss the classical elliptic Toda chain introduced by Krichever and the elliptic Ruijsenaars-Toda chain introduced by Adler, Shabat and Suris. It is shown that these models can be obtained as particular cases of the elliptic Ruijsenaars chain. We explain how the classical $r$-matrix structures are derived for these chains. Also, as a by-product, we prove that the elliptic Ruijsenaars-Toda chain is gauge equivalent to discrete Landau-Lifshitz model of XYZ type. The elliptic Toda chain is also gauge equivalent to XYZ chain with special values of the Casimir functions at each site.
