“…[21], we introduced, for incompressible flows on a three-dimensional region M of Euclidean space, a symplectic structure on R × M. Using the automorphism algebra of this structure we obtained, in Ref. [22], the generators of volume preserving diffeomorphisms on M and showed that they can, as in two dimensions, be represented by Hamiltonian vector fields. This enabled us to express the Lie-Poisson bracket through the Poisson bracket of invariant functions on M. In this work, we shall utilize these results, which will be summarized in the next section, to construct infinite families of helicity invariants and to obtain a kinematical interpretation of them in the framework of particle relabelling symmetries.…”
