Abstract
It is shown that the symmetry algebra of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation can be related to an infinite-dimensional subalgebra of the loop algebra [. The algebra is used to generate new classes of solutions of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, depending on several arbitrary functions.
