Abstract

We consider various generalizations of the Kepler problem to three-dimensional sphere S3S^3, a compact space of constant curvature. These generalizations include, among other things, addition of a spherical analog of the magnetic monopole (the Poincar\'e--Appell system) and addition of a more complicated field, which itself is a generalization of the MICZ-system. The mentioned systems are integrable -- in fact, superintegrable. The latter is due to the vector integral, which is analogous to the Laplace--Runge--Lenz vector. We offer a classification of the motions and consider a trajectory isomorphism between planar and spatial motions. The presented results can be easily extended to Lobachevsky space L3L^3.
