Abstract

A Lie-Hamilton system is a nonautonomous system of first-order ordinary differential equations describing the integral curves of a tt-dependent vector field taking values in a finite-dimensional real Lie algebra of Hamiltonian vector fields with respect to a Poisson structure. We provide new algebraic/geometric techniques to easily determine the properties of such Lie algebras on the plane, e.g., their associated Poisson bivectors. We study new and known Lie-Hamilton systems on R2\mathbb{R}^2 with physical, biological and mathematical applications. New results cover Cayley-Klein Riccati equations, the here defined planar diffusion Riccati systems, complex Bernoulli differential equations and projective Schr\"odinger equations. Constants of motion for planar Lie-Hamilton systems are explicitly obtained which, in turn, allow us to derive superposition rules through a coalgebra approach.
