The basic theory of Differential Galois and in particular Morales--Ramis theory is reviewed with focus in analyzing the non--integrability of various problems of few bodies in Celestial Mechanics. The main theoretical tools are: Morales--Ramis theorem, the algebrization method of Acosta--Blázquez and Kovacic's algorithm. Morales--Ramis states that if Hamiltonian system has an additional meromorphic integral in involution in a neighborhood of a specific solution, then the differential Galois group of the normal variational equations is abelian. The algebrization method permits under general conditions to recast the variational equation in a form suitable for its analysis by means of Kovacic's algorithm. We apply these tools to various examples of few body problems in Celestial Mechanics: (a) the elliptic restricted three body in the plane with collision of the primaries; (b) a general Hamiltonian system of two degrees of freedom with homogeneous potential of degree -1; here we perform McGehee's blow up and obtain the normal variational equation in the form of an hypergeometric equation. We recover Yoshida's criterion for non--integrability. Then we contrast two methods to compute the Galois group: the well known, based in the Schwartz--Kimura table, and the lesser based in Kovacic's algorithm. We apply these methodology to three problems: the rectangular four body problem, the anisotropic Kepler problem and two uncoupled Kepler problems in the line; the last two depend on a mass parameter, but while in the anisotropic problem it is integrable for only two values of the parameter, the two uncoupled Kepler problems is completely integrable for all values of the masses.
We extend to the spatial case a technique of integration of the close encounters formulated by Tullio Levi-Civita for the planar restricted three-body problem. We consider the Hamiltonian introduced in the Kustaanheimo-Stiefel regularization and construct a complete integral of the related Hamilton-Jacobi equation by means of a series convergent in a neighbourhood of the collisions with the primary or secondary body.
The analog of the Kepler system defined on the Heisenberg group introduced by Montgomery and Shanbrom in [Fields Inst. Commun., Vol. 73, Springer, New York, 2015, 319-342, arXiv:1212.2713] is integrable on the zero level of the Hamiltonian. We show that in all other cases the system is not Liouville integrable due to the lack of additional meromorphic first integrals. We prove that the analog of the two-body problem on the Heisenberg group is not integrable in the Liouville sense.
In this paper we investigate a class of natural Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom. The kinetic energy depends on coordinates but the system is homogeneous. Thanks to this property it admits, in a general case, a particular solution. Using this solution we derive necessary conditions for the integrability of such systems investigating differential Galois group of variational equations.
We consider the half-wave maps (HWM) equation which is a continuum limit of the classical version of the Haldane-Shastry spin chain. In particular, we explore a many-body dynamical system arising from the HWM equation under the pole ansatz. The system is shown to be completely integrable by demonstrating that it exhibits a Lax pair and relevant conservation lows. Subsequently, the analytical multisoliton solutions of the HWM equation are constructed by means of the pole expansion method. The properties of the one- and two-soliton solutions are then investigated in detail as well as their pole …
This contributed conference proceeding reviews some results about a system of a few identical particles with spin trapped in one-dimensional potentials and experiencing two-body interactions. The focus is on how symmetry, integrability, and solvability depend on the trap shape, two-body interaction, the number of particles, and the number of spin components. A series of comments are presented that characterize the minimal symmetries possible for a composite system constructed from interacting single particles, with special focus on the contact interaction. For five and more particles with inte…
We discuss various examples of classical Calogero-Moser models with internal degrees of freedom. These models besides of having some attractive properties, like the complete integrability, are of interest eg., in studying spectral properties of quantum chaotic systems. The role of internal degrees of freedom is important in at least two aspects. Firstly, they come in play as dynamically evolving couplings between repelling pairs of eigenvalues, hence they influence the speed of eigenvalue dynamics. Secondly their initial values determine the "reachable sets" of couplings between particular pai…
We propose an interacting many-body space-time-discrete Markov chain model, which is composed of an integrable deterministic and reversible cellular automaton (the rule 54 of [Bobenko et al, CMP 158, 127 (1993)]) on a finite one-dimensional lattice Z_2^n, and local stochastic Markov chains at the two lattice boundaries which provide chemical baths for absorbing or emitting the solitons. Ergodicity and mixing of this many-body Markov chain is proven for generic values of bath parameters, implying existence of a unique non-equilibrium steady state. The latter is constructed exactly and explicitl…
Recently, a hydrodynamic description of local equilibrium dynamics in quantum integrable systems was discovered. In the diffusionless limit, this is equivalent to a certain "Bethe-Boltzmann" kinetic equation, which has the form of an integro-differential conservation law in $(1+1)$D. The purpose of the present work is to investigate the sense in which the Bethe-Boltzmann equation defines an "integrable kinetic equation". To this end, we study a class of $N$ dimensional systems of evolution equations that arise naturally as finite-dimensional approximations to the Bethe-Boltzmann equation. We o…
The non-commutative integrability (NCI) is a property fulfilled by some Hamiltonian systems that ensures, among other things, the exact solvability of their corresponding equations of motion. The latter means that an "explicit formula" for the trajectories of these systems can be constructed. Such a construction rests mainly on the so-called Lie theorem on integrability by quadratures. It is worth mentioning that, in the context of Hamiltonian systems, the NCI has been for around 40 years, essentially, the unique criterium for exact solvability expressed in the terms of first integrals (contai…
The exchange operator formalism (EOF) describes many-body integrable systems using phase-space variables involving an exchange operator that acts on any pair of particles. We establish an equivalence between models described by EOF and the complete infinite family of parent Hamiltonians (PHJ) describing quantum many-body models with ground-states of Jastrow form. This makes it possible to identify the invariants of motion for any model in the PHJ family and establish its integrability, even in the presence of an external potential. Using this construction we establish the integrability of the …
