      The Baker-Akhiezer (BA) module was introduced by \textit{A. Nakayashiki} [Duke Math. J. 62, No. 2, 315--358 (1991; Zbl 0732.14008)] in order to extend the theory of the BA function due to Krichever to higher dimensions. It is a geometric counterpart of the \({D}-\)module generated by the wave operator in Sato's theory of the KP-hierarchy and the universal Grassmann manifold. In the case of genus \(g\) algebraic curves, the BA-module becomes a \(({D}_{g}, A)-\)bimodule, where \({D}_{g} = {O}[\partial_{1},\dots, \partial_{g}]\) is the ring of differential operators in \(g\) variables and \(A\) is the affine ring of the curve. In [loc. cit.], A. Nakayashiki studied the BA-module of a \(g-\)dimensional principally polarized abelian variety \((X, \Theta)\) with a non-singular \(\Theta\). It has been proved that the BA-module becomes a free \({D}-\)module of rank \(g!,\) where \({D}\) is the ring of differential operators in \(g\) variables. In paper under review, the authors stidy the restriction, on the spectral variables, of the Baker-Akhiezer module of a \(g-\)dimensional principally polarized abelian variety with the non-singular theta divisor to an intersection of shifted theta divisors. It is shown that the restriction to a \(k-\)dimensional variety becomes a free module over the ring of differential operators in \(k\) variables. The remaining \(g - k\) derivations define evolution equations for generators of the BA-module. As a corollary new examples of commutative rings of partial differential operators with matrix coefficients and their non-trivial evolution equations are obtained.
