The Painleve property transformed

Noteworthy analytic properties of the Dym-Kruskal equation, such as the weak Painleve property and the Pogrebkov property (a second-order pole at infinity), are proven to be exactly the image of the usual Painleve property under the Ibragimov transformation. The transformed Painleve analysis is carried out for two infinite sets of evolution equations similar to the Dym-Kruskal equation. Only four of the equations pass the test, being known and integrable.
