Jun 5, 2015 at 21:48 comment added paul garrett @DenisSerre... Exactly. This reminds me also of the "mysteries" that are corollaries of the Strong Law of Large Numbers: a particular example satisfies it... because it is universal.
Jun 5, 2015 at 20:45 comment added Denis Serre Don't think about KdV as a fluid equation. It is just a normal form in the realm of nonlinear dispersive PDEs. You encounter it at every intersection.

Oct 23, 2013 at 2:16 comment added Peter Samuelson I think it is certainly an appropriate question, and wish I were able to answer it.
Oct 22, 2013 at 23:17 comment added Tom Copeland A similar question applies to the inviscid Burgers' equation in relation to the facets of associahedra. See OEIS A086810 and A033282 (On-line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences).
Oct 22, 2013 at 18:20 comment added Dan Petersen Moreover, Kontsevich's proof does provide a link to integrable systems -- he rewrites $F$ in terms of a particular matrix integral, and it's known more generally that certain types of matrix integrals give rise to $\tau$-functions of integrable hierarchies.
Oct 22, 2013 at 18:20 comment added Dan Petersen I'm not an expert, so take this with a grain of salt. I don't think you should search for a direct link between water waves and GW theory. Instead the answer is that water waves are examples of solitons, and that the theory of solitons can be interpreted in terms of integrable systems. Also, there are "moral" reasons for why GW theory should have a link to integrable hierarchies, in this case the KdV hierarchy.
