Abstract: The paper is an inquiry of the algebraic foundations of the theory of dispersionless integrable hierarchies, like the dispersionless KP and modified KP hierarchies and the universal Whitham's hierarchy of genus zero. It stands out for the idea of interpreting these hierarchies as equations of coisotropic deformations for the structure constants of certain associative algebras. It discusses the link between the structure constants and the Hirota's tau function, and shows that the dispersionless Hirota's bilinear equations are, within this approach, a way of writing the associativity conditions for the structure constants in terms of the tau function. It also suggests a simple interpretation of the algebro-geometric construction of the universal Whitham's equations of genus zero due to Krichever.

Review text

The aim of the article is to introduce the concept of ``coisotropic deformations of associative algebras and to show its relevance for the theory of integrable hierarchies of dispersionless PDEs. Algebraic foundations of the theory of dispersionless integrable hierarchies come from the idea of interpreting them as equations of coisotropic deformations for the structure constants of some associative algebras. The established links structure constants with Hirota's tau function allow to write out the associativity conditions for structure constants in terms of the tau function; in particular the interpretation of algebra-geometric construction given for the universal Whitham equations of genes zero.
