Abstract

We present a criterion of reducibility of a zero curvature representation to a solvable subalgebra, hence to a chain of conservation laws. Namely, we show that reducibility is equivalent to the existence of a section of the generalized Riccati covering. Results are applied to conversion between Guthrie's and Olver's form of recursion operators.
