An so (3, R) Counterpart of the Dirac Soliton Hierarchy and its Bi-Integrable Couplings

We derive a counterpart hierarchy of the Dirac soliton hierarchy from zero curvature equations associated with a matrix spectral problem from so (3, a"e). Inspired by a special class of non-semisimple loop algebras, we construct a hierarchy of bi-integrable couplings for the counterpart soliton hierarchy. By applying the variational identities which cope with the enlarged Lax pairs, we generate the corresponding Hamiltonian structure for the hierarchy of the resulting bi-integrable couplings. To show Liouville integrability, infinitely many commuting symmetries and conserved densities are presented for the counterpart soliton hierarchy and its hierarchy of bi-integrable couplings.
