“…In particular, we prove that the known Lax representations for the potential Khokhlov-Zabolotskaya equation, the hyper-CR equation of Einstein-Weyl structures, their associated integrable hierarchies as well as some new Lax representations can be derived via a series of extensions applied to the deformations q N,ε of the family of Lie algebras R N [s] ⊗ w with N ≥ 3, where R N [s] is the commutative associative algebra of truncated polynomials of degreee N and w is the Lie algebra of vector fields on R, see Section 3 for definition of q N,ε . In Sections 4, 5, and 6 we present three equations ( 14), (22), and (27) with Lax representations generated by extensions of the Lie algebras q 1,−1 , q 1,−2 , and q 2,−1 , respectively. Equation (22) can be considered as a 3D generalization of the generalized 2D Hunter-Saxton equation [8,9,3,24] with the special value of the parameter.…”
