Abstract
The discussion of the Hamiltonian structure of two-component equations of hydrodynamic type is completed by presenting the Hamiltonian operators for Euler’s equation governing the motion of plane sound waves of finite amplitude and another quasilinear second-order wave equation. There exists a doubly infinite family of conserved Hamiltonians for the equations of gas dynamics that degenerate into one, namely, the Benney sequence, for shallow-water waves. Infinite sequences of conserved quantities for these equations are also presented. In the case of multicomponent equations of hydrodynamic type, it is shown, that Kodama’s generalization of the shallow-water equations admits bi-Hamiltonian structure.
