Criteria for existence of a Hamiltonian structure

Abstract

The necessary and sufficient conditions are derived for the existence of a Hamiltonian structure for 3-component non-diagonalizable systems of hydrodynamic type. The conditions are formulated in terms of tensor invariants defined by the metric $h_{ij}(u)$ constructed from the Haantjes (1,2)-tensor.

Keywords: Poisson brackets, conformally flat metric, covariant derivatives, Weyl–Schouten equations, Haantjes tensor
