Abstract
We introduce an integrable matrix extension of the Manakov-Santini system and show that it describes a (2+1)-dimensional integrable chiral model in the Einstein-Weyl space. We apply a dressing scheme for the extended Manakov-Santini system and define an extended hierarchy. We also consider a matrix extension of a Toda-type system associated with another local form of the Einstein-Weyl geometry.
