A 314:479-483 (2003)] fails the Painleve test for integrability at the highest resonance, where a nontrivial compatibility condition for recursion relations appears. This compatibility condition, however, is sufficiently weak and thus allows the SKP equation to possess an integrable (1+1)-dimensional reduction, which is detected by the Weiss method of truncated singular expansions.7 pagesExactly Solvable and Integrable SystemsMathematical PhysicsAnalysis of PDEsPlasma PhysicsSingularity analysis of a spherical Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equationtext
