The aim of this paper is two-fold. First, we define symplectic maps between Hitchin systems related to holomorphic bundles of different degrees. We call these maps the Symplectic Hecke Correspondence (SHC) of the corresponding Higgs bundles. They are constructed by means of the Hecke correspondence of the underlying holomorphic bundles. SHC allows to construct Bäcklund transformations in the Hitchin systems defined over Riemann curves with marked points. We apply the general scheme to the elliptic Calogero-Moser (CM) system and construct SHC to an integrable SL(N, C) Euler-Arnold top (the elliptic SL(N, C)-rotator). Next, we propose a generalization of the Hitchin approach to 2d integrable theories related to the Higgs bundles of infinite rank. The main example is an integrable two-dimensional version of the two-body elliptic CM system. The previous construction allows to define SHC between the two-dimensional elliptic CM system and the Landau-Lifshitz equation.

We show that the Painlevé VI equation has an equivalent form of the non-autonomous Zhukovsky-Volterra gyrostat. This system is a generalization of the Euler top in C 3 and include the additional constant gyrostat momentum. The quantization of its autonomous version is achieved by the reflection equation. The corresponding quadratic algebra generalizes the Sklyanin algebra. As by product we define integrable XYZ spin chain on a finite lattice with new boundary conditions. June 4, 2018 PVI was discovered by B.Gambier [10] in 1906. He accomplished the Painlevé classification program of the second order differential equations whose solutions have not movable critical points. This equation and its degenerations P V − P I have a lot of applications in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics. (see, for example [41]).We prove here that PVI can be write down in a very simple form as ODE with a quadratic non-linearity. It is a non-autonomous version of the SL(2, C) Zhukovsky-Volterra gyrostat (ZVG) [42,39]. The ZVG generalizes the standard Euler top in the space C 3 by adding an external constant rotator momentum. The ZVG equation describes the evolution of the momentum vector S = (S 1 , S 2 , S 3 ) lying on a SL(2, C) coadjoint orbit. We consider Non-Autonomous Zhukovsky-Volterra gyrostat (NAZVG)where J(τ ) · S = (J 1 S 1 , J 2 S 2 , J 3 S 3 ). Three additional constants ν ′ = (ν ′ 1 , ν ′ 2 , ν ′ 3 ) form the gyrostat momentum vector, and the vector J = {J α (τ )}, (α = 1, 2, 3) is the inverse inertia vector CRDF RM1-2545.

We describe relationships between integrable systems with N degrees of freedom arising from the AGT conjecture. Namely, we prove the equivalence (spectral duality) between the N -cite Heisenberg spin chain and a reduced gl N Gaudin model both at classical and quantum level. The former one appears on the gauge theory side of the AGT relation in the Nekrasov-Shatashvili (and further the SeibergWitten) limit while the latter one is natural on the CFT side. At the classical level, the duality transformation relates the Seiberg-Witten differentials and spectral curves via a bispectral involution. The quantum duality extends this to the equivalence of the corresponding Baxter-Schrödinger equations (quantum spectral curves). This equivalence generalizes both the spectral self-duality between the 2 × 2 and N × N representations of the Toda chain and the famous AHH duality.

We consider topologically non-trivial Higgs bundles over elliptic curves with marked points and construct corresponding integrable systems. In the case of one marked point we call them the modified Calogero-Moser systems (MCM systems). Their phase space has the same dimension as the phase space of the standard CM systems with spin, but less number of particles and greater number of spin variables. Topology of the holomorphic bundles are defined by their characteristic classes. Such bundles occur if G has a non-trivial center, i.e. classical simply-connected groups, E 6 and E 7 . We define the conformal version CG of G -an analog of GL(N) for SL(N), and relate the characteristic classes with degrees of CGbundles. Starting with these bundles we construct Lax operators, quadratic Hamiltonians, define the phase spaces and the Poisson structure using dynamical r-matrices. To describe the systems we use a special basis in the Lie algebras that generalizes the basis of t'Hooft matrices for sl(N). We find that the MCM systems contain the standard CM systems related to some (unbroken) subalgebras. The configuration space of the CM particles is the moduli space of the holomorphic bundles with non-trivial characteristic classes.

In our recent paper we described relationships between integrable systems inspired by the AGT conjecture. On the gauge theory side an integrable spin chain naturally emerges while on the conformal field theory side one obtains some special reduced Gaudin model. Two types of integrable systems were shown to be related by the spectral duality. In this paper we extend the spectral duality to the case of higher spin chains. It is proved that the N -site GL k Heisenberg chain is dual to the special reduced k + 2-points gl N Gaudin model. Moreover, we construct an explicit Poisson map between the models at the classical level by performing the Dirac reduction procedure and applying the AHH duality transformation.
