The construction is based on a Riemann-Hilbert problem for the pairs (L,M) and (\\bar L,\\bar M) of Lax and Orlov-Schulman operators. This Riemann-Hilbert problem is translated to the language of the dressing operators W and \\bar W. The dressing operators are set in an exponential form as W = e^{X/\\hbar} and \\bar W = e^{\\phi/\\hbar}e^{\\bar X/\\hbar}, and the auxiliary operators X,\\bar X and the function \\phi are assumed to have \\hbar-expansions X = X_0 + \\hbar X_1 + ..., \\bar X = \\bar X_0 + \\hbar\\bar X_1 + ... and \\phi = \\phi_0 + \\hbar\\phi_1 + .... The coefficients of these expansions turn out to satisfy a set of recursion relations. X,\\bar X and \\phi are recursively determined by these relations. Moreover, the associated wave functions are shown to have the WKB form \\Psi = e^{S/\\hbar} and \\bar\\Psi = e^{\\bar S/\\hbar}, which leads to an \\hbar-expansion of the logarithm of the tau function.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-12-02T22:58:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37K10", "35Q53" ], "keywords": [ "toda hierarchy", "recursive construction", "riemann-hilbert problem", "hbar-expansion", "dressing operators" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Analysis and Mathematical Physics", "year": 2012, "month": "Jun", "volume": 2, "pages": 171 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 37, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1079956, "adsabs": "2012AnMP....2..171T" } } }
