On the classical r-matrix structure of the rational BC(n) Ruijsenaars-Schneider-van Diejen system

In this paper, we construct a quadratic r-matrix structure for the classical rational BC(n) Ruijsenaars-Schneider-van Diejen system with the maximal number of three independent coupling parameters. As a byproduct, we provide a Lax representation of the dynamics as well.Comment: 36 page

Generalized spin Sutherland systems revisited

We present generalizations of the spin Sutherland systems obtained earlier by Blom and Langmann and by Polychronakos in two different ways: from SU(n) Yang--Mills theory on the cylinder and by constraining geodesic motion on the N-fold direct product of SU(n) with itself, for any N>1. Our systems are in correspondence with the Dynkin diagram automorphisms of arbitrary connected and simply connected compact simple Lie groups. We give a finite-dimensional as well as an infinite-dimensional derivation and shed light on the mechanism whereby they lead to the same classical integrable systems. The infinite-dimensional approach, based on twisted current algebras (alias Yang--Mills with twisted boundary conditions), was inspired by the derivation of the spinless Sutherland model due to Gorsky and Nekrasov. The finite-dimensional method relies on Hamiltonian reduction under twisted conjugations of N-fold direct product groups, linking the quantum mechanics of the reduced systems to representation theory similarly as was explored previously in the N=1 case.Comment: 21 page

Derivations of the trigonometric BC(n) Sutherland model by quantum Hamiltonian reduction

The BC(n) Sutherland Hamiltonian with coupling constants parametrized by three arbitrary integers is derived by reductions of the Laplace operator of the group U(N). The reductions are obtained by applying the Laplace operator on spaces of certain vector valued functions equivariant under suitable symmetric subgroups of U(N)\times U(N). Three different reduction schemes are considered, the simplest one being the compact real form of the reduction of the Laplacian of GL(2n,C) to the complex BC(n) Sutherland Hamiltonian previously studied by Oblomkov.Comment: 30 pages, LateX; v2: final version with minor stylistic modification

On the r-matrix structure of the hyperbolic BC(n) Sutherland model

Working in a symplectic reduction framework, we construct a dynamical r-matrix for the classical hyperbolic BC(n) Sutherland model with three independent coupling constants. We also examine the Lax representation of the dynamics and its equivalence with the Hamiltonian equation of motion.Comment: 20 page

A note on a canonical dynamical r-matrix

It is well known that a classical dynamical $r$-matrix can be associated with every finite-dimensional self-dual Lie algebra \G by the definition $R(\omega):= f(\mathrm{ad} \omega)$, where \omega\in \G and $f$ is the holomorphic function given by $f(z)={1/2}\coth \frac{z}{2}-\frac{1}{z}$ for z\in \C\setminus 2\pi i \Z^*. We present a new, direct proof of the statement that this canonical $r$-matrix satisfies the modified classical dynamical Yang-Baxter equation on \G.Comment: 17 pages, LaTeX2
