Bäcklund transformations and the integrable discretisation of characteristic equations
Wolfgang K. Schief,Colin Rogers +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, Backlund transformations are shown to provide integrable discretisations of characteristic systems for Monge-Ampere equations descriptive of pseudospherical and Tzitzeica surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrable structure in discrete shell membrane theory
TL;DR: The integrability of the underlying equilibrium equations is proved by relating the geometry of the discrete shell membranes to discrete O surface theory and establishing connections with generalized barycentric coordinates and nine-point centres.
Book ChapterDOI
On a Novel Resonant Ermakov-NLS System: Painlevé Reduction
Colin Rogers,Wolfgang K. Schief +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a resonant Ermakov-NLS system is introduced which admits symmetry reduction to a hybrid EMI-painleve II system, and the latter involves the isolation of positive solutions of a concomitant integrable Painleve XXXIV equation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discrete line complexes and integrable evolution of minors
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present algebraic and geometric properties of discrete integrable line complexes in $CP^3$ and prove Desargues' classical theorem of projective geometry.

Discrete projective minimal surfaces
Alan McCarthy,Wolfgang K. Schief +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a natural discretisation scheme for classical projective minimal surfaces is proposed, where discrete versions of Godeaux-Rozet, Demoulin and Tzitzeica surfaces are introduced.
