Abstract

We introduce the notions of generalised (bi-)Hamiltonian structures which generalise naturally the (bi-)Hamiltonian structures of evolutionary partial differential equations. In the hydrodynamic case, these structures are characterised in terms of geometric data. Furthermore, we show that a generalised (bi)-Hamiltonian structure of hydrodynamic type can be associated with any (bi-)flat F-manifold, and it is compatible with the corresponding principal hierarchy.
