The τ-functions of the corresponding solutions is obtained and the differential expressions of the underlying Virasoro constraints are characterized. Illustrative examples of exact solutions of Whitham hierarchies are derived and applications to conformal maps dynamics are indicated.engString equations in Whitham hierarchies: τ-functions and Virasoro constraintsjournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2218982http://scitation.aip.orgopen access51-73Dispersionless kp hierarchyRandom-matrix ensembleToda hierarchyIntegrable hierarchiesAdditional symmetriesConformal-mapsGrowthCurveLimitFísica-Modelos matemáticosFísica matemática
