Complete integrability for Hamiltonian systems with a cone potential

Abstract: It is known that, if a point in R^n is driven by a bounded below potential V, whose gradient is always in a closed convex cone which contains no lines, then the velocity has a finite limit as time goes to +infinity. The components of the asymptotic velocity, as functions of the initial data, are trivially constants of motion. We find sufficient conditions for these functions to be C^k (2 Show more

“…If V decays exponentially at infinity (see a later section for precise statements), we give Gronwall-like estimates on the growth of the derivatives of q with respect to the initial data. If instead V is assumed convex, then a simple monotonicity condition on the Hessian matrix of V enables us to build a Liapunov function that checks the growth of the derivatives of q without special decay requirements on V. In both settings it is proved, again in [GZ1], that the components of p ∞ , in addition to being differentiable, are independent and in involution on M, and the range of p ∞ (on M) is exactly the interior of the dual cone C * . In particular, the Hamiltonian system is integrable if it is restricted to the open, nonempty, invariant set M. II.…”

“…The conjecture, suggested by Gutkin in [Gu1], is false without further restrictions on the potential, though. In particular, the asymptotic velocity may not even be a continuous function of the initial data (see [GZ1], Section 3), and sometimes there are geometrical obstructions to the global independence of its components, even if they happened to be smooth (see [GZ3], Sections 1 and 5).…”
