Abstract
Sequences of Levy transformations for the Darboux system of conjugates nets in multidimensions are studied. We show that after a suitable number of Levy transformations, with at least a Levy transformation in each direction, we get closed formulae in terms of multi-Wrónski determinants. These formulae are for the tangent vectors, Lamè coefficients, rotation coefficients and points of the surface.
