Abstract

Using the technique introduced in [1], we explain the relations between the description of KP–multisolitons in the Sato Grassmannian and in finite–gap theory in the special cases GrTP(1, M) and GrTP(M − 1, M) where the multisolitons may be associated to Krichever data on rational degenerations of regular hyperelliptic M–curves of genus M − 1.
