B. %T Energy-dependent potentials revisited: a universal hierarchy of hydrodynamic type %D 2002 %@ 0375-9601 %U https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/59824 %X A hierarchy of infinite-dimensional systems of hydrodynamic type is considered and a general scheme for classifying its reductions is provided. Wide families of integrable systems including, in particular, those associated with energy-dependent spectral problems of Schrodinger type, are characterized as reductions of this hierarchy. N-phase type reductions and their corresponding Dubrovin equations are analyzed. A symmetry transformation connecting different classes of reductions is formulated. %~
