Pre-geodesics of an affine connection are the curves that are geodesics after a reparametrization (the analogous concept in K\"ahler geometry is known as J-planar curves). Similarly, dual-geodesics on a Riemannian manifold are curves along…

Recently, it was shown that a rich class of second-order (maximally) superintegrable systems has an underpinning Hesse-Frobenius structure, i.e.\ a Frobenius structure that is compatible with a Hessian structure such that the Hessian…
