A nonlocal Hamiltonian formalism for semi-Hamiltonian systems of the hydrodynamic type (Q1567923)

This paper is devoted to a nonlocal Hamiltonian formalism for semi-Hamiltonian systems of hydrodynamic type. The authors show that the system under consideration admits infinitely many nonlocal Hamiltonian structures with finite nonlocal tails. To this end they use the formal Baker-Akhiezer functions for a \((2+1)\)-dimensional \(n\)-wave system.
