Geometric and integrability properties of Kahan's method
arXiv:1805.08382
Abstract
Given a quadratic vector field on \mathbb{R}^n possessing a quadratic first integral depending on two of the independent variables, we give a constructive proof that Kahan's discretization method exactly preserves a nearby modifed integral. Building on this result, we present a family of integrable quadratic vector fields (including the Euler top) whose Kahan discretization is a novel 10-parameter family of integrable maps.
