Globally superintegrable Hamiltonian systems

Abstract

The generalization of the Mishchenko–Fomenko theorem for symplectic superintegrable systems to the case of an arbitrary, not necessarily compact, invariant submanifold allows giving a global description of a superintegrable Hamiltonian system, which can be split into several nonequivalent globally superintegrable systems on nonoverlapping open submanifolds of the symplectic phase manifold having both compact and noncompact invariant submanifolds. A typical example of such a composition of globally superintegrable systems is motion in a centrally symmetric field, in particular, the two-dimensional Kepler problem.
