Gershun, Victor D. Integrable string models in terms of chiral invariants of \(SU(n), SO(n), SP(n)\) groups. (English) Zbl 1192.81267 SIGMA, Symmetry Integrability Geom. Methods Appl. 4, Paper 041, 16 p. (2008). Summary: We considered two types of string models: on the Riemann space of string coordinates with null torsion and on the Riemann-Cartan space of string coordinates with constant torsion. We used the hydrodynamic approach of Dubrovin, Novikov to integrable systems and Dubrovin solutions of WDVV associativity equation to construct new integrable string equations of hydrodynamic type on the torsionless Riemann space of chiral currents in first case. We used the invariant local chiral currents of principal chiral models for \(SU(n), SO(n), SP(n)\) groups to construct new integrable string equations of hydrodynamic type on the Riemann space of the chiral primitive invariant currents and on the chiral non-primitive Casimir operators as Hamiltonians in second case. We also used Pohlmeyer tensor nonlocal currents to construct new nonlocal string equation.
