New symmetries for the Ablowitz-Ladik hierarchies

Abstract

In the letter we give new symmetries for the isospectral and non-isospectral Ablowitz-Ladik hierarchies by means of the zero curvature representations of evolution equations related to the Ablowitz-Ladik spectral problem. Lie algebras constructed by symmetries are further obtained. We also discuss the relations between the recursion operator and isospectral and non-isospectral flows. Our method can be generalized to other systems to construct symmetries for non-isospectral equations.
