Abstract: An infinite family of quasi-maximally superintegrable Hamiltonians with a common set of (2N-3) integrals of the motion is introduced. The integrability properties of all these Hamiltonians are shown to be a consequence of a hidden non-standard quantum sl(2,R) Poisson coalgebra symmetry. As a concrete application, one of this Hamiltonians is shown to generate the geodesic motion on certain manifolds with a non-constant curvature that turns out to be a function of the deformation parameter z. Moreover, another Hamiltonian in this family is shown to generate geodesic motions on Riemannian and relativistic spaces all of whose sectional curvatures are constant and equal to the deformation parameter z. This approach can be generalized to arbitrary dimension by making use of coalgebra symmetry.

Review text

A super-integrable Hamiltonian system on a \(2n\)-dimensional symplectic manifold is called maximally super-integrable if there is a set of \(2n-2\) globally defined functionally independent constants of the motion that Poisson-commutes with the Hamiltonian \(H\). The number of known maximally super-integrable systems is small; it includes the isotropic harmonic oscillator with \(n\) centrifugal terms, the Kepler-Coulomb system with \(n-1\) centrifugal barriers, the Calogero-Moser-Sutherland model, and a few others. Here the authors define a class of systems, they call quasi-maximally super-integrable (QMS) systems having \(2n-3\) integrals with the properties described above. The authors summarize an earlier approach to construct a QMS system on constant curvature \(n\)-dimensional configuration spaces using an \(\text{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})\) Poisson coalgebra symmetry. Then they present a construction on variable curvature spaces via a nonstandard quantum deformation of an \(\text{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})\) Poisson coalgebra.
