Rational solutions of the Kadomtsev - Petviashvili hierarchy and the dynamics of their poles. I. New form of a general rational solution

J. Math. Phys. 35, 5820-5830 (1994)

Abstract:
A new approach to the construction of the rational solutions to the hierarchy of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation is presented. The generalization of the ''superposition formula'' is found to permit the construction of a new general solution from some partial ones. The features of the general polynomial factorization and the types of scattering in the many-body Calogero-Moser problem are investigated.
