Integrability and equivalence relationships of six integrable coupled Korteweg–de Vries equations

In this paper, we investigate the integrability and equivalence relationships of six coupled Korteweg–de Vries equations. It is shown that the six coupled Korteweg–de Vries equations are identical under certain invertible transformations. We reconsider the matrix representations of the prolongation algebra for the Painleve integrable coupled Korteweg–de Vries equation in [Appl. Math. Lett. 23 (2010) 665-669] and propose a new Lax pair of this equation that can be used to construct exact solutions with vanishing boundary conditions. It is also pointed out that all the six coupled Korteweg–de Vries equations have fourth-order Lax pairs instead of the fifth-order ones. Moreover, the Painleve integrability of the six coupled Korteweg–de Vries equations are examined. It is proved that the six coupled Korteweg–de Vries equations are all Painleve integrable and have the same resonant points, which further determines the equivalence among them. Finally, the auto-Backlund transformation and exact solutions of one of the six coupled Korteweg–de Vries equations are proposed explicitly. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
