The authors study some geometrical constructions on the cotangent bundle from the viewpoint of natural operations. First they deduce that all natural operators transforming functions on into vector fields on are linearly generated by the Hamiltonian vector field with respect to the canonical symplectic structure of and by the Liouville vector field of . Then they determine all natural operators transforming pairs of functions on into functions on . In this case, the main generator is the classical Poisson bracket.
