Symplectic realizations of \(\mathrm{e}(3)^\ast\) (Q6606766)

This is a conference paper, presented by one of the authors of a previously published paper by \textit{A. Odzijewicz} and \textit{E. Wawreniuk} [Russ. J. Math. Phys. 29, No. 1, 91--114 (2022; Zbl 1495.37048)]. The author considers the Euclidean group \(E(3)\) and its corresponding Lie algebra \(e(3)\), together with a general Hamiltonian that depends on dynamical variables \((\vec{J},\vec{Γ})\), as well as a constant vector \(\vec{\lambda}\), which, as pointed out in the paper, can be used to describe a rigid body with cavities filled with incompressible fluid, where \(\vec{\lambda}\) is associated with the cyclic motion of the fluid inside the cavities.\N\NThe Lie-Poisson bracket on the dual \(e(3)^*\) space permits two Casimir operators, and thus, the requirement for complete integrability is equivalent to finding an additional integral of motion. Some of these cases, which result from particular choices of the \(\vec{\lambda}\) vector, include the well-known Lagrange, Euler, and Kovalevskaya tops, among others.\N\NA central role in the analysis is played by the twistor space \(\mathbb{T}\), which is \(\mathbb{C}^4\) with a Hermitian scalar product, the symplectic structure invariant under the \(U(2,2)\) group, its corresponding algebra \(u(2,2)\), and its dual \(u(2,2)^*\). The main idea is that the twistor space is shown to be a symplectic realization, i.e., a map from a symplectic manifold to a Poisson space. For the Lie-Poisson space \(e(3)^*\), this construction is obtained by considering decompositions of the \(u(2,2)^*\) space into a direct sum of subspaces that include \(e(3)^*\), which are fully discussed in the previous paper and are briefly presented in the paper under review.\N\NSeveral properties of the momentum map (a symplectic realization) from the twistor space to \(u(2,2)\), which were proven in the previous paper, are presented also in the paper. As a consequence, this allows finding a class of integrable Hamiltonians defined on the phase space corresponding to these symplectic realizations. Several examples of this construction are also presented.\N\NFor the entire collection see [Zbl 1531.53004].
