✦ Synopsis
The Painlev6 test of the system of nonlinear partial differential first-order equations U t + U x = kl t~2 + k2 u2 + k3uv , 1) t -1) x = -kll~ 2 -k2 u2 -k3uo is performed. The system includes the Carleman and McKean models which are caricatures of the Boltzmann equation. For k~ = k2 = 0 the system describes the interaction of two waves u and v. The results of the Painlev6 test are discussed in connection with whether or not the system is integrable. We also study in detail the constraint on q~ (whose vanishing defines a noncharacteristic hypersurface S) which arises at the resonance.

The WTC and ARS tests are important tools in identifying nonlinear PDEs which are linearizable by the method of the inverse-scattering-transform. In this paper we give an exact formulation of these tests, and it is shown that the WTC test is "stronger" than the ARS test, i.e., every PDE which satisf
It is shown that the two-dimensional sine-Gordon equation does not satisfy the necessary conditions of the Painlev6 conjecture to be solvable by inverse scattering since it is reducible to an ordinary differential equation which has a movable logarithmic branch point and so is not of Painlev6 type.
