Abstract
The Kadomtsev-Petviashvili and Boussinesq equations (uxxx -6uux)x -utx ±uyy = 0; (uxxx - 6uux)x +uxx ±utt = 0; are completely integrable, and in particular, they possess the three-soliton solution. This article aims to expose a uniqueness property of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) and Boussinesq equations in the integrability theory. It is shown that the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili and Boussinesq equations and their dimensional reductions are the only integrable equations among a class of generalized Kadomtsev-Petviashvili and Boussinesq equations (ux1x1x1 - 6uux1 )x1 + ΣM i;j=1aijuxixj = 0; where the aij’s are arbitrary constants and M is an arbitrary natural number, if the existence of the three-soliton solution is required
