The same formula follows from the second group of equations, (16),
(18), (20) and (22).
The relation (23) is called the addition theorem for the Backlund
transformations. This relation allows one to obtain new solution 2
algebraically, from the known solutions 0 , 11 , 21 , without any
integration. Repeatedly applying this theorem, one can obtain
successively new solutions by means of purely algebraic manipulations.
