Abstract

Analytic linearization maps (resp., inverse linearization maps) in the sense of Flato, Pinczon and Simon are constructed for the Benjamin-Ono equation. These maps have a simple structure, referred to as their recursivity. This recursivity leads to the construction of Lax pairs and Gelfand-Levitan-type equations.
