Elliptic N-soliton Solutions of ABS Lattice Equations

Elliptic N-soliton-type solutions, that is, solutions emerging from the application of N consecutive Backlund transformations to an elliptic seed solution, are constructed for all equations in the Adler-Bobenko-Suris (ABS) list of quadrilateral lattice equations, except for the case of the Q4 equation which is treated elsewhere. The main construction, which is based on an elliptic Cauchy matrix, is performed for the equation Q3, and by coalescence on certain auxiliary parameters, the corresponding solutions of the remaining equations in the list are obtained. Furthermore, the underlying linear structure of the equations is exhibited, leading, in particular, to a novel Lax representation of the Q3 equation.
