On a new 3D generalized Hunter-Saxton equation
Sergei Sakovich
Abstract
The problem of integrability is studied for a 3D generalized Hunter-Saxton equation introduced recently by O.I. Morozov. A transformation is found which brings the equation into a constant-characteristic form and simultaneously trivializes the equation's Lax representation. The transformed equation is shown to fail the Painleve test for integrability.
