Momentum Map and Action-Angle Variables for Nambu Dynamics

Mathematical Physics 2015-06-26 v1 math.MP

Abstract

Momentum map is a reduction procedure that reduces the dimension of a Hamiltonian system to the lower ones. It is shown that behavior of the action-angle variables under the momentum map generates the new action-angle variables for the reduced system considered as a Nambu structure. The symmetrical top is given as an illustration.
