Abstract

A brief survey of the bilinear formalism discovered by Hirota is given. First, the procedure to obtain solition solutions of nonlinear evolution equations is discussed. Then the algebraic structure of the equations in bilinear form is explained in a simple way. A few extensions of the formalism are also presented.
