(Super)integrability from coalgebra symmetry: formalism and applications
arXiv:0905.1298 · doi:10.1088/1742-6596/175/1/012004
Abstract
The coalgebra approach to the construction of classical integrable systems from Poisson coalgebras is reviewed, and the essential role played by symplectic realizations in this framework is emphasized. Many examples of Hamiltonians with either undeformed or q-deformed coalgebra symmetry are given, and their Liouville superintegrability is discussed. Among them, (quasi-maximally) superintegrable systems on N-dimensional curved spaces of nonconstant curvature are analysed in detail. Further generalizations of the coalgebra approach that make use of comodule and loop algebras are presented. The generalization of such a coalgebra symmetry framework to quantum mechanical systems is straightforward.
