Using the tri-hamiltonian splitting method, the authors of [Anco and Mobasheramini, Physica D, 355: 1--23, 2017] derived two U (1) -invariant nonlinear PDEs that arise from the hierarchy of the nonlinear Schrdinger equation and admit peakons ($ non-smooth\solitons $). In the present paper, these two peakon PDEs are generalized to a family of U (1) -invariant peakon PDEs parametrized by the real projective line U (1) . All equations in this family are shown to posses $ conservative\peakon\solutions $(whose Sobolev U (1) norm is time invariant). The Hamiltonian structure for the sector of conservative peakons is identified and the peakon ODEs are shown to be Hamiltonian with respect to several Poisson structures. It is shown that the resulting Hamilonian peakon flows in the case of the two peakon equations derived in [Anco and Mobasheramini, Physica D, 355: 1--23, 2017] form orthogonal families, while in general the Hamiltonian peakon flows for two different equations in the general family intersect at a fixed angle equal to the angle between two lines in U (1) parametrizing those two equations. Moreover, it is shown that inverse spectral methods allow one to solve explicitly the dynamics of conservative peakons using explicit solutions to a certain interpolation problem. The graphs of multipeakon solutions confirm the existence of multipeakon breathers as well as asymptotic formation of pairs of two peakon bound states in the non-periodic time domain.

We study the critical Ising model on the square lattice in bounded simply connected domains with + and free boundary conditions. We relate the energy density of the model to a discrete fermionic correlator and compute its scaling limit by discrete complex analysis methods. As a consequence, we obtain a simple exact formula for the scaling limit of the energy field one-point function in terms of the hyperbolic metric. This confirms the predictions originating in physics, but also provides a higher precision.

We prove the existence of knotted and linked thin vortex tubes for steady solutions to the incompressible Euler equation in $${\mathbb{R}^{3}}$$ . More precisely, given a finite collection of (possibly linked and knotted) disjoint thin tubes in $${\mathbb{R}^{3}}$$ , we show that they can be transformed with a$C$^{$m$}-small diffeomorphism into a set of vortex tubes of a Beltrami field that tends to zero at infinity. The structure of the vortex lines in the tubes is extremely rich, presenting a positive-measure set of invariant tori and infinitely many periodic vortex lines. The problem of the existence of steady knotted thin vortex tubes can be traced back to Lord Kelvin.
