Integrable systems in the realm of algebraic geometry -- after Mumford, Beauville and Vanhaecke

Abstract

Beauville [A. Beauville, Jacobiennes des courbes spectrales et systèmes hamiltoniens complètement intégrables, Acta. Math. 164 (1990) 211-235] introduced an integrable Hamiltonian system whose general level set is isomorphic to the complement of the theta divisor in the Jacobian of the spectral curve. This can be regarded as a generalization of the Mumford system [D. Mumford, Tata Lectures on Theta II, Birkhäuser, 1984]. In this article, we construct a variant of Beauville's system whose general level set is isomorphic to the complement of the intersection of the translations of the theta divisor in the Jacobian. A suitable subsystem of our system can be regarded as a generalization of the even Mumford system introduced by Vanhaecke [P. Vanhaecke, Linearising two-dimensional integrable systems and the construction of action-angle variables
