The shallow water equations: conservation laws and symplectic geometry

We consider the system of nonlinear differential equations governing shallow water waves over a uniform or sloping bottom. By using the hodograph method we construct solutions, conservation laws, and Böcklund transformations for these equations. We show that these constructions are canonical relativ...

description We consider the system of nonlinear differential equations governing shallow water waves over a uniform or sloping bottom. By using the hodograph method we construct solutions, conservation laws, and Böcklund transformations for these equations. We show that these constructions are canonical relative to a symplectic form introduced by Manin.
