Abstract
We show that the \(\tau \)-functions of the regular KP solitons from the totally nonnegative Grassmannians can be expressed by the Riemann theta functions on singular curves. We explicitly write the parameters in the Riemann theta function in terms of those of the KP soliton. We give a short remark on the Prym theta function on a double covering of singular curves. We also discuss the KP soliton on quasi-periodic background, which is obtained by applying the vertex operators to the Riemann theta function.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Letters in Mathematical Physics is to attract the community''s attention on important and original developments in the area of mathematical physics and contemporary theoretical physics. The journal publishes letters and longer research articles, occasionally also articles containing topical reviews. We are committed to both fast publication and careful refereeing. In addition, the journal offers important contributions to modern mathematics in fields which have a potential physical application, and important developments in theoretical physics which have potential mathematical impact.
