Abstract

Four new integrable evolutions equations with operator Lax pairs are found for an octonion variable. The method uses a scaling ansatz to set up a general polynomial form for the evolution equation and the Lax pair, using KdV and mKdV scaling weights. A condition for linear differential operators to be a Lax pair over octonions is formulated and solved for the unknown coefficients in the polynomials.
