The modern focus of Hamiltonian formalism takes as a fundamental aspect of its approach the Poisson bracket. Let C{sup {infinity}}(M) be the ring of all infinitely differentiable functions in a certain manifold M. It is concluded that the Poisson bracket is an operation that transforms C{sup {infinity}}(M) into a Lie algebra. This formalism has important applications to the investigation of a series of nonlinear equations of mathematical physics, which have the important quality of being universal. Classical examples are the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV), Schroedinger, and other equations. The authors deduce certain new properties of the Korteweg-de Vries equations based on a study of the equivalent Miura-KdV equation.
