Integrable systems associated to the filtrations of Lie algebras (Q6169677)

The paper is devoted to the study of integrable systems associated to the filtration of Lie algebras in the compact case. In particular, if \(G\) is a compact connected Lie group \(G\), the authors consider a chain of compact connected Lie subgroup \(G_0 \subset G_1 \subset \dots \subset G_{n-1} \subset G_n=G \) and the corresponding filtration of Lie algebras \({g}=\mathrm{Lie}(G)\), \({g}_0 \subset {g}_1 \subset \dots \subset {g}_{n-1} \subset {g}_n={g}\) and investigate integrable Euler equations associated to the filtration of Lie algebras. In the case \({g}_0=\{0\}\) and the natural filtration of \({so}(n)\) and \({u}(n)\) the so-called Gel'fand-Cetlin integrable systems are obtained. The authors prove complete integrability in a noncommutative sense (superintegrability) by means of polynomial integrals for filtrations of compact Lie algebras \({g}\), generalizing results known for Gel'fand-Cetlin systems. As remarked by the authors, superintegrability represent a stronger property than the usual commutative (or Liouville) integrability. The system is solvable by quadratures, regular compact invariant manifolds are isotropic tori, and there exist appropriate action-angle coordinates in which the dynamics is linearized. The paper concludes with several constructions of complete commutative polynomial integrals for the system.
