Integrable geodesic flows on surfaces (Q708820)

In Section 2 of this paper, the author summarizes the facts which are needed on minimal geodesics and Lagrangian projections of invariant tori. In Section 3, it is proved that no minimal rays can be trapped ``inside'' compressible invariant tori. Section 4 contains the proofs of main Theorems 1.4 and 1.6. In Section 5, Theorems 1.8 and 1.10 are proved. The last Section 6 contains facts on critical points of \(F\). This paper contains two parts. In the first part, Kozlov's theorem on non-integrability on surfaces of higher genus is strengthed. In the second part, integrable geodesic flows on a 2-torus are studied. The main result for a 2-torus describes the phase portraits of integrable flows. It is proved that they are essentially standard outside what is called separatrix chains.
