Gauge equivalence between 1+1 rational Calogero-Moser field theory and higher rank Landau-Lifshitz equation

Abstract

In this paper we study 1+1 field generalization of the rational $N$-body Calogero-Moser model. We show that this model is gauge equivalent to some special higher rank matrix Landau-Lifshitz equation. The latter equation is described in terms of ${\rm GL}_N$ rational $R$-matrix, which turns into the 11-vertex $R$-matrix in the $N=2$ case. The rational $R$-matrix satisfies the associative Yang-Baxter equation, which underlies construction of the Lax pair for the Zakharov-Shabat equation. The field analogue of the IRF-Vertex transformation is proposed. It allows to compute explicit change of variables between the field Calogero-Moser model and the Landau-Lifshitz equation.
