Abstract
The investigation of nonlinear evolution equations and dynamical systems integrable in multidimensions constitutes at present our main research interest. Here we survey findings obtained recently as well as over time: solvable equations (both PDEs and ODEs) are reported, philosophical motivations and methodological approaches are outlined. For more detailed treatments, including the display and analysis of solutions, the interested reader is referred to the original papers.
