Dispersionless scalar integrable hierarchies, Whitham hierarchy and the quasi-classical dbar-dressing method
The quasi-classical limit of the scalar nonlocal dbar-problem is derived and
a quasi-classical version of the dbar-dressing method is presented.
Dispersionless KP, mKP and 2DTL hierarchies are discussed as illustrative
examples. It is shown that the universal Whitham hierarchy it is nothing but
the ring of symmetries for the quasi-classical dbar-problem. The reduction
problem is discussed and, in particular, the d2DTL equation of B type is
derived.Comment: LaTex file,19 page
Solution of the dispersionless Hirota equations
The dispersionless differential Fay identity is shown to be equivalent to a
kernel expansion providing a universal algebraic characterization and solution
of the dispersionless Hirota equations. Some calculations based on D-bar data
of the action are also indicated.Comment: Late
