Abstract
Using the determinant representation of gauge transformation operator, we have shown that the general form of τ function of the q-KP hierarchy is a q-deformed generalized Wronskian, which includes the q-deformed Wronskian as a special case. On the basis of these, we study the q-deformed constrained KP (q-cKP) hierarchy, i.e. l-constraints of q-KP hierarchy. Similar to the ordinary constrained KP (cKP) hierarchy, a large class of solutions of q-cKP hierarchy can be represented by q-deformed Wronskian determinant of functions satisfying a set of linear q-partial differential equations with constant coefficients. We obtained additional conditions for these functions imposed by the constraints. In particular, the effects of q-deformation (q-effects) in single q-soliton from the simplest τ function of the q-KP hierarchy and in multi-q-soliton from one-component q-cKP hierarchy, and their dependence of x and q, were also presented. Finally, we observe that q-soliton tends to the usual soliton of the KP equation when x ® 0 and q ® 1, simultaneously.

Key words: q-deformation; τ function; Gauge transformation operator; q-KP hierarchy; q-cKP hierarchy.
