Abstract

The recent theory of recursion operators in multidimensions is reviewed. Furthermore, a simple, unifying, algorithmic way of constructing recursion operators is given. In particular it is shown that recursion operators in 1 + 1 and 2 + 1 are concrete realizations of more abstract structures.
