Abstract

We develop Lie-Poisson integrators for general Hamiltonian systems on R3\mathbf{R}^{3} equipped with the rigid body bracket. The method uses symplectic realisation of R3\mathbf{R}^{3} on TR2T^{*}\mathbf{R}^{2} and application of symplectic Runge-Kutta schemes. As a side product, we obtain simple symplectic integrators for general Hamiltonian systems on the sphere S2S^{2}.
