Dirac quantization of free motion on curved surfaces
We give an explicit operator realization of Dirac quantization of free
particle motion on a surface of codimension 1. It is shown that the Dirac
recipe is ambiguous and a natural way of fixing this problem is proposed. We
also introduce a modification of Dirac procedure which yields zero quantum
potential. Some problems of abelian conversion quantization are pointed out.Comment: 16 page
Gauge transformation and reciprocal link for (2+1)-dimensional integrable field systems
Appropriate restrictions of Lax operators which allows to construction of
(2+1)-dimensional integrable field systems, coming from centrally extended
algebra of pseudo-differential operators, are reviewed. The gauge
transformation and the reciprocal link between three classes of Lax hierarchies
are established.Comment: to appear in J. Nonl. Math. Phys., 12 page
The quantum bialgebra associated with the eight-vertex R-matrix
The quantum bialgebra related to the Baxter's eight-vertex R-matrix is found
as a quantum deformation of the Lie algebra of sl(2)-valued automorphic
functions on a complex torus.Comment: 4 page
Tri-hamiltonian vector fields, spectral curves and separation coordinates
We show that for a class of dynamical systems, Hamiltonian with respect to
three distinct Poisson brackets (P_0, P_1, P_2), separation coordinates are
provided by the common roots of a set of bivariate polynomials. These
polynomials, which generalise those considered by E. Sklyanin in his
algebro-geometric approach, are obtained from the knowledge of: (i) a common
Casimir function for the two Poisson pencils (P_1 - \lambda P_0) and (P_2 - \mu
P_0); (ii) a suitable set of vector fields, preserving P_0 but transversal to
its symplectic leaves. The frameworks is applied to Lax equations with spectral
parameter, for which not only it unifies the separation techniques of Sklyanin
and of Magri, but also provides a more efficient ``inverse'' procedure not
involving the extraction of roots.Comment: 49 pages Section on reduction revisite
Three natural mechanical systems on Stiefel varieties
We consider integrable generalizations of the spherical pendulum system to
the Stiefel variety for a certain metric. For the case
of V(n,2) an alternative integrable model of the pendulum is presented.
We also describe a system on the Stiefel variety with a four-degree
potential. The latter has invariant relations on which provide the
complete integrability of the flow reduced on the oriented Grassmannian variety

Dirac method and symplectic submanifolds in the cotangent bundle of a factorizable Lie group
In this work we study some symplectic submanifolds in the cotangent bundle of
a factorizable Lie group defined by second class constraints. By applying the
Dirac method, we study many issues of these spaces as fundamental Dirac
brackets, symmetries, and collective dynamics. This last item allows to study
integrability as inherited from a system on the whole cotangent bundle, leading
in a natural way to the AKS theory for integrable systems
Multi-Hamiltonian structures for r-matrix systems
For the rational, elliptic and trigonometric r-matrices, we exhibit the links
between three "levels" of Poisson spaces: (a) Some finite-dimensional spaces of
matrix-valued holomorphic functions on the complex line; (b) Spaces of spectral
curves and sheaves supported on them; (c) Symmetric products of a surface. We
have, at each level, a linear space of compatible Poisson structures, and the
maps relating the levels are Poisson. This leads in a natural way to Nijenhuis
coordinates for these spaces. At level (b), there are Hamiltonian systems on
these spaces which are integrable for each Poisson structure in the family, and
which are such that the Lagrangian leaves are the intersections of the
symplective leaves over the Poisson structures in the family. Specific examples
include many of the well-known integrable systems.Comment: 26 pages, Plain Te
Dual Isomonodromic Deformations and Moment Maps to Loop Algebras
The Hamiltonian structure of the monodromy preserving deformation equations
of Jimbo {\it et al } is explained in terms of parameter dependent pairs of
moment maps from a symplectic vector space to the dual spaces of two different
loop algebras. The nonautonomous Hamiltonian systems generating the
deformations are obtained by pulling back spectral invariants on Poisson
subspaces consisting of elements that are rational in the loop parameter and
identifying the deformation parameters with those determining the moment maps.
This construction is shown to lead to ``dual'' pairs of matrix differential
operators whose monodromy is preserved under the same family of deformations.
As illustrative examples, involving discrete and continuous reductions, a
higher rank generalization of the Hamiltonian equations governing the
correlation functions for an impenetrable Bose gas is obtained, as well as dual
pairs of isomonodromy representations for the equations of the Painleve
transcendents and .Comment: preprint CRM-1844 (1993), 28 pgs. (Corrected date and abstract.
Generalized r-matrix structure and algebro-geometric solution for integrable systems
The purpose of this paper is to construct a generalized r-matrix structure of
finite dimensional systems and an approach to obtain the algebro-geometric
solutions of integrable nonlinear evolution equations (NLEEs). Our starting
point is a generalized Lax matrix instead of usual Lax pair. The generalized
r-matrix structure and Hamiltonian functions are presented on the basis of
fundamental Poisson bracket. It can be clearly seen that various nonlinear
constrained (c-) and restricted (r-) systems, such as the c-AKNS, c-MKdV,
c-Toda, r-Toda, c-Levi, etc, are derived from the reduction of this structure.
All these nonlinear systems have {\it r}-matrices, and are completely
integrable in Liouville's sense. Furthermore, our generalized structure is
developed to become an approach to obtain the algebro-geometric solutions of
integrable NLEEs. Finally, the two typical examples are considered to
illustrate this approach: the infinite or periodic Toda lattice equation and
the AKNS equation with the condition of decay at infinity or periodic boundary.Comment: 41 pages, 0 figure
Integrable discretizations of some cases of the rigid body dynamics
A heavy top with a fixed point and a rigid body in an ideal fluid are
important examples of Hamiltonian systems on a dual to the semidirect product
Lie algebra . We give a Lagrangian derivation of
the corresponding equations of motion, and introduce discrete time analogs of
two integrable cases of these systems: the Lagrange top and the Clebsch case,
respectively. The construction of discretizations is based on the discrete time
Lagrangian mechanics on Lie groups, accompanied by the discrete time Lagrangian
reduction. The resulting explicit maps on are Poisson with respect to
the Lie--Poisson bracket, and are also completely integrable. Lax
representations of these maps are also found.Comment: arXiv version is already officia
