Abstract
The theory of commuting linear differential expressions has received a lot of attention since Lax presented his description of the KdV hierarchy by Lax pairs (P, L). Gesztesy and the present author have established a relationship of this circle of ideas with the property that all solutions of the differential equations Ly = zy, z ∈ ℂ, are meromorphic. In this paper this relationship is explored further by establishing its existence for Gelfand-Dikii systems with rational and simply periodic coefficients.
