Abstract. We construct Miura transformations mapping the scalar spectral problems of the integrable lattice equations belonging to the Adler-Bobenko-Suris (ABS) list into the discrete Schrödinger spectral problem associated with Volterra-type equations. We show that the ABS equations correspond to Bäcklund transformations for some particular cases of the discrete Krichever-Novikov equation found by Yamilov (YdKN equation). This enables us to construct new generalized symmetries for the ABS equations. The same can be said about the generalizations of the ABS equations introduced by Tongas, Tsoubelis and Xenitidis. All of them generate Bäcklund transformations for the YdKN equation. The higher order generalized symmetries we construct in the present paper confirm their integrability.

In this paper we discuss the integrability properties of a nonlinear partial difference equation on the square obtained by the multiple scale integrability test from a class of multilinear dispersive equations defined on a four points lattice.

Abstract. In this note we present some ideas on when Lie symmetries, both point and generalized, can depend on arbitrary functions. We show a few examples, both in partial differential and partial difference equations where this happens. Moreover we show that the infinitesimal generators of generalized symmetries depending on arbitrary functions, both for continuous and discrete equations, effectively play the role of master symmetries.

Abstract. In this paper we present a set of results on the symmetries of the lattice Schwarzian Korteweg-de Vries (lSKdV) equation. We construct the Lie point symmetries and, using its associated spectral problem, an infinite sequence of generalized symmetries and master symmetries. We finally show that we can use master symmetries of the lSKdV equation to construct non-autonomous non-integrable generalized symmetries.

We present a discrete multiscale expansion of the lattice potential Korteweg-de Vries (lpKdV) equation on functions of infinite order of slow-varyness. To do so we introduce a formal expansion of the shift operator on many lattices holding at all orders. The lowest secularity condition from the expansion of the lpKdV equation gives a nonlinear lattice equation, depending on shifts of all orders, of the form of the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation.

Abstract. In this paper we construct the general solutions of two families of quad-equations, namely the trapezoidal H 4 equations and the H 6 equations. These solutions are obtained exploiting the properties of the first integrals in the Darboux sense, which were derived in [Gubbiotti G., Yamilov R.I., J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 50 (2017), 345205, 26 pages]. These first integrals are used to reduce the problem to the solution of some linear or linearizable non-autonomous ordinary difference equations which can be formally solved.

We discuss the linearization of a non-autonomous nonlinear partial difference equation belonging to the Boll classification of quad-graph equations consistent around the cube. We show that its Lax pair is fake. We present its generalized symmetries which turn out to be non-autonomous and depending on an arbitrary function of the dependent variables defined in two lattice points. These generalized symmetries are differential difference equations which, in some case, admit peculiar Bäcklund transformations. *
