From the text: Consider the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation (mKdV): $z_t-6z^2z_x+z_{xxx}=0.$ By a straightforward calculation, we find the Bäcklund transformation for the mKdV equation in the form $(z+y)_x=(z-y)\sqrt{\mu^2+(z+y)^2}.$ It is easily verified that this transformation can be reduced to the classical one.
