A reduction of the self‐dual Yang–Mills (SDYM) equations is studied by imposing two space–time symmetries and by requiring that the connection one‐form belongs to a Lie algebra of formal matrix‐valued differential operators in an auxiliary variable. In this article, the scalar case and the canonical cases for 2×2 matrices are examined. In the scalar case, it is shown that the field equations can be reduced to the forced Burgers equation. In the matrix case, several well‐known 2+1 integrable equations are obtained. Also examined are certain transformation properties between the solutions of some of these 2+1 equations.
