Geodesic Equations on Diffeomorphism Groups

We bring together those systems of hydrodynamical type that can be written as geodesic equations on diffeomorphism groups or on extensions of diffeomorphism groups with right invariant $L^2$ or $H^1% metrics. We present their formal derivation starting from Euler's equation, the first order equ...
