We give explicit formulas for Hadamard's coefficients in terms of the tau-function of the Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy. We show that some of the basic properties of these coefficients can be easily derived from these formulas.

Nous donnons des formules explicites pour les coefficients d'Hadamard en termes de la fonction tau de la hiérarchie de Korteweg-de Vries. A partir de cette formule nous pouvons facilement démontrer les propriétés de ces coefficients.
