Korteweg-de Vries Equation and Generalizations. IV. The Korteweg-de Vries Equation as a Hamiltonian System

It is shown that if a function of x and t satisfies the Korteweg-de Vries equation and is periodic in x, then its Fourier components satisfy a Hamiltonian system of ordinary differential equations. The associated Poisson bracket is a bilinear antisymmetric operator on functionals. On a suitably restricted space of functionals, this operator satisfies the Jacobi identity. It is shown that any two of the integral invariants discussed in Paper II of this series have a zero Poisson bracket.
