Hamiltonians with two degrees of freedom admitting a singlevalued general solution

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Following the basic principles stated by Painlev'e, we first revisit the process of selecting the admissible time-independent Hamiltonians H=(p12+p22)/2+V(q1,q2) whose some integer power qjnj(t) of the general solution is a singlevalued function of the complex time t. In addition to the well known rational potentials V of H'enon-Heiles, this selects possible cases with a trigonometric dependence of V on qj. Then, by establishing the relevant confluences, we restrict the question of the explicit integration of the seven (three ``cubic plus four ``quartic) rational H'enon-Heiles cases to the quartic cases. Finally, we perform the explicit integration of the quartic cases, thus proving that the seven rational cases have a meromorphic general solution explicitly given by a genus two hyperelliptic function.
