We study analogous nonlinear p-power generalizations of the integrable Kadomtsev–Petviashvili and Boussinesq equations in two dimensions. For all p <>0, we present a Hamiltonian formulation of these two generalized equations. We derive all Lie symmetries including those that exist for special powers p <> 0. We use Noether’s theorem to obtain conservation laws arising from the variational Lie symmetries. Finally, we obtain explicit line soliton solutions for all powers p > 0 and discuss some of their properties %K line soliton %K conservation law %K Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation %~ Universidad de Cádiz
