Abstract: The dynamics of a three-dimensional Hamilton-Poisson system is closely related to its constants of motion, the energy or Hamiltonian function $H$ and a Casimir $C$ of the corresponding Lie algebra. The orbits of the system are included in the intersection of the level sets $H=constant$ and $C=constant$. Furthermore, for some three-dimensional Hamilton-Poisson systems, connections between the associated energy-Casimir mapping $(H,C)$ and some of their dynamic properties were reported. In order to detect new connections, we construct a Hamilton-Poisson system using two smooth functions as its constants of motion. The new system has infinitely many Hamilton-Poisson realizations. We study the stability of the equilibrium points and the existence of periodic orbits. Using numerical integration we point out four pairs of heteroclinic orbits.
