Description

We show in a constructive fashion that, contrary to the long-held belief, there is plenty of nonlinear partial differential systems in four independent variables that are integrable in the sense of soliton theory beyond a few previously known examples like (anti-)self-dual Yang--Mills equations or (anti-)self-dual vacuum Einstein equations.

Namely, using a novel class of Lax pairs related to contact geometry, we present infinitely many new examples of integrable systems in four independent variables.
