contents Matrix elements in different representations are connected by quadratic relations. If matrix elements are those of a $\textit{group element}$, i.e. satisfying the property $Δ(X) = X\otimes X$, then their generating functions obey bilinear Hirota equations and hence are named $τ$-functions. However, dealing with group elements is not always easy, especially for non-commutative algebras of functions, and this slows down the development of $τ$-function theory and the study of integrability properties of non-perturbative functional integrals. A simple way out is to use arbitrary elements of the universal enveloping algebra, and not just the group elements. Then the Hirota equations appear to interrelate a whole system of generating functions, which one may call $\textit{generalized}$ $τ$-functions. It was recently demonstrated that this idea can be applicable even to a somewhat sophisticated case of the quantum toroidal algebra. We consider a number of simpler examples, including ordinary and quantum groups, to explain how the method works and what kind of solutions one can obtain.
