Abstract
In this paper we show that almost all the coupled KdV equations follow from the geodesic flows of L2 metric on the semidirect product space Diffs(S1) ⊙ C∞ (S1), where Diffs(S1) is the group of orientation preserving Sobolev Hs diffeomorphisms of the circle. We also study the geodesic flow of a H1 metric.
