Abstract
A discussion about the connection between non-linear wave equations covariant under the action of a Lie group on one hand, and the theory of non-linear representations of the covariance group developed elsewhere [1] on the other hand, is presented here.
Applications to a class of relativistic non-linear wave-equations are then suggested.
