Differential-geometric approach to the integrability of hydrodynamic chains: the Haantjes tensor

The integrability of m-component systems of hydrodynamic type, u_t = V(u)u_x, by the generalized hodograph method requiresthe diagonalizability of the m x m matrix V(u). This condition is known to be equivalent to the vanishing of the corresponding Haantjes tensor. We generalise this apporach to hyd...
