Abstract:
In a recent paper, given an arbitrary homogeneous cohomological field theory (CohFT),
Rossi, Shadrin, and the first author proposed a simple formula for a bracket on the space of
local functionals, which conjecturally gives a second Hamiltonian structure
for the double ramification hierarchy associated to the CohFT. In this paper we prove
this conjecture in the approximation up to genus $1$ for any semisimple CohFT and relate this bracket
to the second Poisson bracket of the Dubrovin–Zhang hierarchy by an explicit Miura transformation.
Keywords:moduli space of curves, cohomology ring, partial differential equation.
