Abstract
A class of solvable (systems of) nonlinear evolution PDEs in multidimensional space is discussed. We focus on a rotation-invariant system of PDEs of Schrödinger type and on a relativistically-invariant system of PDEs of Klein-Gordon type. Isochronous variants of these evolution PDEs are also considered.

Key words: nonlinear evolution PDEs in multidimensions; solvable PDEs; NLS-like equations; nonlinear Klein-Gordon-like equations; isochronicity.
