(and possible some other parameters). Some times we use notation f±R =fR.
Elements of Cartan sub algebra will be denoted by little latine letters c =
c h ,[c,X ] = c X . Generators of all roots of the algebra are normalized

2.2 The grading of the maximal root
In what follows we use the grading of the maximal root [8]. This means that
all generators of the algebra may be distributed on the subspaces with ±2,±1
and 0grading indexes. The grading index is defined by the proper value of the
Cartan generator of the maximal root H = [X+,X−],[H ,X±] = ±2X±.

Thus arbitrary element of semi simple algebra may be represented as

The last modification is connecteXd with the fact that Cartan elements of the
simple roots of the algebra may be among A0,B0 and they must be excluded
from the result of summation on zero order subspace.
2.3 Discrete transformation, Frechet derivative and Pois-
son structure
We repeat corresponding text from [9]. The discrete invertible substitution
(mapping) defined as
u˜=φ(u,u′,...,ur)≡φ(u) (1)
2
uissdimensionalvectorfunction;ur itsderivativesofcorrespondingorderwith
respect to ”space” coordinates.
The propertyofinvertibility meansthat(1)canbe resolvedand”old”func-
tion u may expressed in terms of new one u˜ and its derivatives.
Frechet derivative φ′(u) of (1) is s×s matrix operator defined as
φ′(u)=φu+φu′D+φu′′D2+... (2)
where Dm is operator of m-times differentiation with respect to space coordi-
nates.
Let us consider equation
F (φ(u))=φ′(u)F (u) (3)
n n
whereF (u)iss-componentunknownvectorfunction,eachcomponentofwhich
n
depend on u and its derivatives not more than n order. If equation (3) posses
at least one not trivial solution (Ftrivial ≡ u′) then substitution (1) is called
integrable one.
With each discrete substitution it is possible try to connect Poisson struc-
ture defined as anti symmetric matrix valued operator JT(u) = −J(u) and its
invariance with the respect to discrete transformation (1) is fixed by equation
it satisfied
φ′(u)J(u)(φ′(u))T =J(φ(u)), φ′(u)H(u)(φ′(u))−1 =H(φ(u)) (4)
where(φ′(u))T =φTu−DφTu′+D2(φu′′)T+...andJ(u),H(u)areunknowns×s
matrix operators, the matrix elements of which are polynomial of some finite
orderwithrespecttooperatorofdifferentiation(ofitspositiveandnegativede-
grees). Firstequationin(4) is conditionofinvarianceofPoissonstructure with
respect to discrete transformation, the second one is equation for raising oper-
ator. Two different Poissonstructures lead obviously to H(u)=J(u) J−1(u) .

In[1]itwasshownthatequationsofn-thwavesareinvariantwithrespectsome
numberofdiscretetransformations(coincide withr -the rankofcorresponding
semi-simple algebra). Namely with suchkind ofdiscretetransformationwe will
have deal in what follows below. It will be shown that there exist two different
Poisson structures (which can be used for construction of the hierarchies of
integrable systems of equations). But the fact of existence of such Poisson
structures is the inner property of semi-simple algebra and the written ad hoc
discretemappingofthedefiniteform. Authordon’tknowandhavenoguesshow
these two objects may be connected in the frame work of group representation
theory.

where functional derivatives coincide with the Frechet one (2). In the case of
canonical transformation of the classical dynamics (and thermodynamic) func-

on its derivatives. It is not surprising that discrete transformationis connected
4
with generalized canonical ones. This fact was observed some times ago and
proof of this fact with respect to self-dual system ( and many other integrable
systems) reader can find in [10].
We present below explicit expression for density of functional G. Reader
can check by using only one operation of differentiation that (6) and (5) are
identical

4 Conservation of the Poisson brackets
ThemainpropertyofcanonicaltransformationconsistsinconservationofPois-
son brackets between dynamical variables involved. This fact proofs automati-
cally in the usual theory (without derivatives of dynamical variables). We will
trytorepeatcorrespondingcalculationandshowthatthispropertywithrespect
to discrete transformation of the previous section is conserved.
For this goal let us consider Jacobi matrix

In (8) in P we unite generalized impulses P=P ,P1 and the same do with
M
corresponding coordinates X=X ,X1. We can not do the same with coordi-
M
nates and impulses with zero indexes by the same reason why unite canonical
transformation in usual theory my be written not in all pairs of canonical vari-
ables. For further transformation of (8) we unite ”4” independent variables of

After differentiation of the last equality with respect to pairs of arguments p=
(p,p ),y =(x,x )andtakingintoaccountindependentargumentsofgenerating

y¯ =−(G )−1,y¯ =−(G )−1G ,

In the general case, when generating functional has arbitrary dependence on
derivatives of p,x arguments the last expression may be had no mean, but in
the case under consideration generating functional is linear in y¯arguments. In
this case matrix G depend only on generalized coordinates X and impulses
y,y¯
P but not from their derivatives and all operations done above are absolutely
correct. After this manipulations expression for Jacobi matrix valued operator
may rewritten in two dimensional form ( we take into account condition of
