Coupled KdV Equations of Hirota-Satsuma Type

Abstract It is shown that the system of two coupled Korteweg-de Vries equations passes the Painleve; test for integrability in nine distinct cases of its coefficients. The integrability of eight cases is verified by direct construction of Lax pairs, whereas for one case it remains unknown.
