Classical R-Operators and Integrable Generalizations of Thirring Equations

Abstract

We construct different integrable generalizations of the massive Thirring equations corresponding loop algebras ${\tilde{\mathfrak{g}}}^{\sigma }$ in different gradings and associated ''triangular'' $R$-operators. We consider the most interesting cases connected with the Coxeter automorphisms, second order automorphisms and with ''Kostant-Adler-Symes'' $R$-operators. We recover a known matrix generalization of the complex Thirring equations as a partial case of our construction.
