Abstract: Two super-integrable and super-separable classical systems which can be considered as deformations of the harmonic oscillator and the Smorodinsky-Winternitz in two dimensions are studied and identified with motions in spaces of constant curvature, the deformation parameter being related with the curvature. In this sense these systems are to be considered as a harmonic oscillator and a Smorodinsky-Winternitz system in such bi-dimensional spaces of constant curvature. The quantization of the first system will be carried out and it is shown that it is super-solvable in the sense that the Schr"odinger equation reduces, in three different coordinate systems, to two separate equations involving only one degree of freedom.

Review text

If a Hamiltonian system on a \(2n\)-dimensional symplectic manifold has \(n\) functionally independent constants of the motion \(f+i\) in involution (including the Hamiltonian itself) so that the Poisson brackets \(\{f_i,f_j\}= 0\) for all \(i,j= 1,2,\dots, n\) and \(df_1\wedge df_2\wedge\cdots\wedge df_n\neq 0\), the system is called integrable. If there exists a set of \(m> n\) functionally independent constants of the motion -- if there are more independent first integrals than degress of freedom -- then the system is called super-integrable. The additonal first integrals induce an additional degree of regularity in the system since trajectories are restricted to submanifolds of dimension less than \(n\). This paper is a survey of some recent integrability and super-integrability of certain two-dimensional systems related to the harmonic oscillator. It focuses primarily on modifications (depending on a parameter \(\lambda\)) of super-integrable systems that do not alter the super-integrability structure. The authors consider a number of explicit one- and two-dimensional systems. For some of these they examine both a classical system and its quantum counterpart. Of particular interest to them are variations of the harmonic oscillator and the Smorodinsky-Winternitz system. They show that these systems of interest can be viewed as nonlinear deformations of linear systems or else as a model of an oscillator on spaces of constant curvature.
