RT Journal Article T1 Generalized Nijenhuis torsions and block-diagonalization of operator fields A1 Reyes Nozaleda, Daniel A1 Tempesta, Piergiulio A1 Tondo, Giorgio AB The theory of generalized Nijenhuis torsions, which extends the classical notions due to Nijenhuis and Haantjes, offers new tools for the study of normal forms of operator fields. We prove a general result ensuring that, given a family of commuting operator fields whose generalized Nijenhuis torsion of level m vanishes, there exists a local chart where all operators can be simultaneously block-diagonalized. We also introduce the notion of generalized Haantjes algebra, consisting of operators with a vanishing higher-level torsion, as a new algebraic structure naturally generalizing standard Haantjes algebras.
