On the Liouville integrability of the periodic Kostant-Toda flow on matrix loops of level \(k\) (Q529636)

The authors study the periodic Kostant-Toda flow on certain coadjoint orbits of the loop group associated to \(\mathrm{sl}(n,\mathbb{C})\). These coadjoint orbits can be identified with coadjoint orbits of a suitable semidirect product of finite-dimensional Lie groups. They show that the above Kostant-Toda flow is Liouville integrable, thus proving a conjecture of \textit{K. Ben Abdeljelil} [J. Lie Theory 21, No. 4, 929--960 (2011; Zbl 1264.17018)].
