Hamiltonian dynamics and spectral theory for SPIN-oscillators (Q661318): Difference between revisions

The authors study the so-called spin-oscillator system which is a Hamiltonian system built by a direct product of the two-dimensional sphere and the plane equipped with their standard symplectic structures and two commuting ``hamiltonians'' playing the role of the momentum map. Despite its apparent simplicity, this system turns out to have an extremely rich and complicated structure of singularities, which classical and quantum mechanical aspects are traced quite carefully in the paper.
