Who cares about integrability ? (ENGLISH)
[ 講演概要 ]
I will start my talk with an introduction to integrability of continuous systems. Why is it important? Is it possible to give a definition of integrability which will satisfy everybody? (Short answer: No). I will then present the most salient discoveries of integrable systems, from Newton to Toda. Next I will address the question of discrete integrability. This will lead naturally to the question of discretisation (of continuous systems) and its importance in modelling. I will deal with the construction of integrable discretisations of continuous integrable systems and introduce the singularity confinement discrete integrability criterion. The final part of my talk will be devoted to discrete Painlevé equations. Due to obvious time constraints I will concentrate on one special class of these equations, namely those associated to the E8 affine Weyl group. I will present a succinct summary of our recent results as well as indications for future investigations.
