Particular cases of this yield the known Lax pairs for the Calogero-Moser and Toda systems, as well as their relativistic generalisations. The ansatz leads to a system of functional equations. Several new functional equations are described and the general analytic solution to some of these is given. New integrable systems are described.32 pages latex2e. Some Proofs removed.
