Abstract

We present a general framework for constructing polynomial integrable systems on linearizations of Poisson varieties that admit log-canonical systems. Our construction is in particular applicable to Poisson varieties with compatible cluster or generalized cluster structures. As examples, we consider a standard complex semi-simple Poisson Lie group GG and a Borel subgroup BB of GG, equipped with the Berenstein-Fomin-Zelevinsky cluster structures; the unipotent Lie subgroup NwN_w of GG associated to any ww in the Weyl group of GG, equipped with the cluster structure on the corresponding Schubert cell as first defined by Geiss-Leclerc-Schr\"oer when GG is simply-laced; and the dual Poisson Lie group GL(n,C){\rm GL}(n, \mathbb C)^* of the standard Poisson Lie group GL(n,C){\rm GL}(n, \mathbb C), equipped with the Gekhtman-Shapiro-Vainshtein generalized cluster structure. In each of these four cases, we show that every extended cluster in the respective cluster or generalized cluster structure gives rise to at least one polynomial integrable system with respect to the linearization of the Poisson structure at the identity element. For some of the polynomial integrable systems, we show that all their Hamiltonian flows are complete. Just as generalized minors on a complex semi-simple Lie group GG are used to describe certain initial extended clusters in the Berenstein-Fomin-Zelevinsky cluster structure on GG, we introduce a special class of homogeneous polynomials, called signed generalized minors, on the Lie algebra g\mathfrak{g} of GG, which are then used to describe some of the polynomial integrable systems obtained via our construction. As a further application, we use the homogeneous degrees of certain signed generalized minors to give an explicit formula for the index of the Lie algebra of NwN_w for every ww in the Weyl group.
