Abstract

We define the notion of Darboux integrability for linear second order partial differential operators,.We then build on certain geometric results of E. Vessiot related to the theory of Monge characteristics to show that the Darboux integrable operators L can be used to obtain a solution of the A2 Toda field theory. This solution is parametrised by four arbitrary functions. The approach presented in this paper thereby represents an alternative means of linearising the A2 Toda equations and may be contrasted with the known linearisation via the Lax pair.
