The moduli space metric for hyperbolic vortices is constructed, and their slow motion scattering is calculated in terms of geodesics in this space.

A deformed differential calculus is developed based on an associative ⋆-product. In two dimensions the Hamiltonian vector fields model the algebra of pseudo-differential operator, as used in the theory of integrable systems. Thus one obtains a geometric description of the operators. A dual theory is also possible, based on a deformation of differential forms. This calculus is applied to a number of multidimensional integrable systems, such as the KP hierarchy, thus obtaining a geometrical description of these systems. The limit in which the deformation disappears corresponds to taking the dispersionless limit in these hierarchies.

The aim of this paper is to analyse Riemannian Kähler–Einstein metrics g in real dimension four admitting an isometric action of SU(2) with generically three-dimensional orbits. The Kähler condition means that there is a complex structure I, with respect to which the metric is hermitian, such that the two-form Ωdefined byis closed. It is well-known that if this condition holds then Ω is in fact covariant constant.

Abstract. A class of multi-component integrable systems associated to Novikov algebras, which interpolate between KdV and Camassa-Holm type equations, is obtained. The construction is based on the classification of low-dimensional Novikov algebras by Bai and Meng. These multi-component bi-Hamiltonian systems obtained by this construction may be interpreted as Euler equations on the centrally extended Lie algebras associated to the Novikov algebras. The related bilinear forms generating cocycles of first, second and third order are classified. Several examples, including known integrable equations, are presented.

For the root systems of type B l , C l and D l , we generalize the result of [7] by showing the existence of Frobenius manifold structures on the orbit spaces of the extended affine Weyl groups that correspond to any vertex of the Dynkin diagram instead of a particular choice made in [7]. It also depends on certain additional data. We also construct Landau-Ginzburg superpotentials for these Frobenius manifold structures.
