Abstract
We study Nijenhuis operators, that is, (1,1)-tensors with vanishing Nijenhuis torsion under the additional assumption that they are gl-regular, i.e., every eigenvalue has geometric multiplicity one. We prove the existence of a coordinate system in which the operator takes first or second companion form, and give a local description of such operators. We apply this local description to study singular points. In particular, we obtain normal forms of gl-regular Nijenhuis operators near singular points in dimension two and discover topological restrictions for the existence of gl-regular Nijenhuis operators on closed surfaces.
