The author continues the investigations of the Poisson brackets \[ \{I,J\}=\int [\delta I/\delta u^ i(x)]A^{ij}[\delta J/\delta u^ j(x)]dx \] of the functionals \(I=\int f(u,u_ x,\dots)dx\) and \(j=\int g(u,u_ x,\dots)dx\) on infinite-dimensional phase space, where \(A^{ij}\) are operators of hydrodynamical type. The theory of these brackets was begun in the paper by \textit{B. A. Dubrovin} and \textit{S. P. Novikov} [Sov. Math., Dokl. 27, 665-669 (1983); translation from Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR 270, 781-785 (1983; Zbl 0553.35011)] and generalized onto more complicated operators \(A^{ij}\) in the papers by \textit{S. P. Tsarev} [Sov. Math.,Dokl. 31, 488-491 (1985); translation from Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR 282, No. 3, 534-537 (1985; Zbl 0605.35075)] and by \textit{O. I. Mokhov} and the author [Non-local Hamiltonian operators of hydrodynamic type related to metrics of constant curvature, Russ. Math. Surv. 45, No. 3, 218-219 (1990); translation from Usp. Mat. Nauk 45, No. 3(273), 191- 192 (1990)]. In the above papers it was shown that the theory has a geometric nature: certain objects \(g_{ij}\) and \(\Gamma^ k_{ij}\) were associated with \(A^{ij}\) such that \(g_{ij}\) formed a pseudo- Riemannian metric and \(\Gamma^ k_{ij}\) were the Christoffel symbols for the connection compatible with the metric and having zero or (for more complicated operators) constant curvature. Here the author considers a new more complicated case of the operators to which one more object, an affinor \(w^ i_ j\) is associated. It is shown that \(w^ i_ j\) plays the role of the Weingarten operator for the metric \(g_{ij}\) and all the objects satisfy the Gauss-Peterson-Codazzi relations. Some applications are discussed, a certain hypothesis is suggested.
