Adler–Gelfand–Dickey Approach to Classical 𝒲-Algebras Within the Theory of Poisson Vertex Algebras

We put the Adler-Gelfand-Dickey approach to classical W-algebras in the framework of Poisson vertex algebras. We show how to recover the bi-Poisson structure of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) hierarchy, together with its generalizations and reduction to the Nth Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) hierarchy, us...
