Abstract:
This paper formulates an extended KdV hierarchy involving a coupled KdV equation, the Boussinesq system as well as their higher order versions.Based upon an inverse scattering method on an energy dependent Schrödinger operator, $N$-soliton solutions in the extended hierarchy are constructed in a unified fashion.In even-order systems, each soliton is multi-peaked when a parameter exceeds the critical value. The classical solitons in the KdV hierarchy are embedded into those with the parameter being zero of even-order systems.

Keywords: The KdV hierarchy, Energy dependent Schrödinger operator, Inverse scattering method, Reflectionless scattering, Nonlinear evolution system, Soliton solution, Boussinesq system.
