Abstract

We study the family of α\alpha-connections of Amari-Chentsov on the homogeneous space D(M)/Dμ(M)\mathcal{D}(M)/\mathcal{D}_\mu(M) of diffeomorphisms modulo volume-preserving diffeomorphims of a compact manifold MM. We show that in some cases their geodesic equations yield completely integrable Hamiltonian systems.
