Superposition formulas for rectangular matrix Riccati equations. (English) Zbl 0628.34010

A system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations allowing a superposition formula can be associated with every Lie group- subgroup pair \(G\supset G_ 0\). We consider the case when \(G=SL(n+k,{\mathbb{C}})\) and \(G_ 0=P(k)\) is a maximal parabolic subgroup of G, leaving a k- dimensional vector space invariant \((1\leq k\leq n)\). The nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODE’s) in this case are rectangular matrix Riccati equations for a matrix \(W(t)\in {\mathbb{C}}^{n\times k}\). The special case \(n=rk\) \((n,r,k\in {\mathbb{N}})\) is considered and a superposition formula is obtained, expressing the general solution in terms of \(r+3\) particular solutions for \(r\geq 2\), \(k\geq 2\). For \(r=1\) (square matrix Riccati equations) five solutions are needed, for \(r=n\) (projective Riccati equations) the required number is \(n+2\).
