Abstract: We construct the general solution of the equation wt+sumlimitsk=1nwxkho(k)(w)=ho(w)+[w,Tildeho(w)], for the NimesN matrix w, where T is any constant diagonal matrix, n,NinNN+ and ho(k),ho,ildeho:RRoRR are arbitrary analytic functions. Such a solution is based on the observation that, as w evolves according to the above equation, the evolution of its spectrum decouples, and it is ruled by the scalar analogue of the above equation. Therefore the eigenvalues of w and suitably normalized eigenvectors are the N2 Riemann invariants. We also obtain, in the case ho=ildeho=0, a system of N2 non-differential equations characterizing such a general solution. We finally discuss reductions of the above matrix equation to systems of N equations admitting, as Riemann invariants, the eigenvalues of w. The simplest example of such reductions is a particular case of the gas dynamics equations
