You can try the following:

1 Install types for hammerjs:

npm install @types/hammerjs --save-dev

2 Open \node_modules\@angular\material\tsconfig.json and add installed hammerjs types to types array this config:

"types": [
  "hammerjs"
]

Basically, you need to install HammerJS because you're using Material component that requires it:

npm install hammerjs --save

systemjs.config.js

System.config({
    path: {'npm:' : 'node_modules/'},
    map:  {'hammerjs': 'npm:hammerjs'},
    packages: {
        'hammerjs':  { main: './hammer.js', defaultExtension: 'js'}
    }
})

A few Material components (eg: md-slider) import hammerjs, so unless it's installed or linked via an external script (as in @Gunter's answer), you will run into problems.
