Abstract: The Extended Toda Hierarchy (shortly ETH) was introduce by E. Getzler cite{Ge} and independently by Y. Zhang cite{Z} in order to describe an integrable hierarchy which governs the Gromov--Witten invariants of $C{P}^1$. The {em Lax type} presentation of the ETH was given in cite{CDZ}. In this paper we give a description of the ETH in terms of {em tau-functions} and Hirota Quadratic Equations (known also as Hirota Bilinear Equations). A new feature here is that the Hirota equations are given in terms of vertex operators taking values in the algebra of differential operators on the affine line.

Review text

Integrable hierarchies have many interesting applications in algebraic geometry, and in particular for purposes of computing Gromov-Witten (GW) invariants of curves. It is known that vertex operators are instrumental for writing Hirota equation of the KdV hierachy satisfied by the tau-function. It is also known (due to \textit{E. Getzler} [in: Symplectic geometry and mirror symmetry. Proceedings of the 4th KIAS annual international conference, Seoul, South Korea, August 14--18, 2000. Singapore: World Scientific. 51--79 (2001; Zbl 1047.37046)] and \textit{Y. Zhang} [J. Geom. Phys. 40, 215--232 (2002; Zbl 1001.37066)]) that extended Toda hierarchy (ETH) governs GW-invariants of the projective line. The aim of the paper is to present a (new) vertex operator approach for computing Hirota quadratic equations for the mentioned ETH. The main results are Theorem 1.1 and Corollary 1.2.
