Abstract

Variation of coupling constants of integrable system can be considered as canonical transformation or, infinitesimally, a Hamiltonian flow in the space of such systems. Any function generates a one-parametric family of integrable systems in vicinity of a single system: this gives an idea of how many integrable systems there are in the space of coupling constants. Inverse flow is generated by a dual "Hamiltonian", associated with the dual integrable system. In vicinity of a self-dual point the duality transformation just interchanges momenta and coordinates in such a "Hamiltonian": . For integrable system with several coupling constants the corresponding "Hamiltonians" satisfy Whitham equations and after quantization (of the original system) become operators satisfying the zero-curvature condition in the space of coupling constants: [ d/dg_a - T_a(p,q), d/dg_b - T_b(p,q) ] = 0. Some explicit formulas are given for harmonic oscillator and for Calogero-Ruijsenaars-Dell system.
