Abstract

The connection between the differential geometry of curves and (2+1)-dimensional integrable systems is established. The Zakharov equation, the modified Veselov-Novikov equation, the modified Kortewegde Vries equation, etc., are equivalent in the Lakshmanan sense to (2+1)-dimensional spin systems.
