We present an example of an integrable Hamiltonian system with scalar potential in the three-dimensional Euclidean space whose integrals of motion are quadratic polynomials in the momenta, yet its Hamilton-Jacobi / Schrodinger equation…
We review results about entanglement (or modular) Hamiltonians of quantum many-body systems in field theory and statistical mechanics models, as well as recent applications in the context of quantum information and quantum simulation.
Hamiltonian dynamical systems can be studied from a variety of viewpoints. Our intention in this paper is to show some examples of usage of two Maxima packages for symbolical and numerical analysis (\texttt{pdynamics} and \texttt{poincare},…

Two-dimensional superintegrable systems with one third order and one lower order integral of motion are reviewed. The fact that Hamiltonian systems with higher order integrals of motion are not the same in classical and quantum mechanics is…
Helicity plays a unique role as an integral invariant of a dynamical system. In this paper, the concept of helicity in the general setting of Hamiltonian dynamics is discussed. It is shown, through examples, how the conservation of overall…
The aim of this paper is to study the relationship between Hamiltonian dynamics and constrained variational calculus. We describe both using the notion of Lagrangian submanifolds of convenient symplectic manifolds and using the so-called…

We introduce two numerical conjugacy invariants for dynamical systems -- the complexity and weak complexity indices -- which are well-suited for the study of "completely integrable" Hamiltonian systems. These invariants can be seen as "slow…

The spectral properties of $su(2)$ Hamiltonians are studied for energies near the critical classical energy $\epsilon_c$ for which the corresponding classical dynamics presents hyperbolic points (HP). A general method leading to an…
We study the most general form of a three dimensional classical integrable system with axial symmetry and invariant under the axis reflection. We assume that the three constants of motion are the Hamiltonian, $H$, with the standard form of…
These notes are based on lecture courses I gave to third year mathematics students at Cambridge. They could form a basis of an elementary one--term lecture course on integrable systems covering the Arnold-Liouville theorem, inverse…
In a recent paper we have introduced several possible inequivalent descriptions of the dynamics and of the transition probabilities of a quantum system when its Hamiltonian is not self-adjoint. Our analysis was carried out in finite…
This paper is a review of the dynamics of a system of planets. It includes the study of averaged equations in both non-resonant and resonant systems and shows the great deal of situations in which the angle between the two semi-major axes…
