  We study the class of norms on the space of smooth functions on a closed
symplectic manifold, which are invariant under the action of the group of
Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms. Our main result shows that any such norm that is
continuous with respect to the $C^{\infty}$-topology, is dominated from above
by the $L_{\infty}$-norm. As a corollary, we obtain that any bi-invariant
Finsler pseudo-metric on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms that is
generated by an invariant norm that satisfies the aforementioned continuity
assumption, is either identically zero or equivalent to Hofer's metric.
