Finite type <strong>curves</strong> in S 2mKdV hierarchyThe mKdV hierarchy is an infinite hierarchy of evolution equationswith first three equations˙κ = −κ ′˙κ = −k ′′′ − 3 2 κ2 κ ′˙κ = −k ′′′′′ − 15 8 κ4 κ ′ − 5 2 κ2 κ ′′′ − 10κκ ′ κ ′′.A curve is called of finite type if κ is stationary under all but fintelymany of the flows in this hierarchy.
