Asymptotic velocity is defined as the Cesàro limit of velocity. As such, its existence has been proved for bounded interaction potentials. This is known to be wrong in celestial mechanics with four or more bodies. Here, we show for a class of pair potentials including the homogeneous ones of degree − α for α ∈(0, 2), that asymptotic velocities exist for up to four bodies, dimension three or larger, for any energy and almost all initial conditions on the energy surface.

The paper surveys open problems and questions related to different aspects of integrable systems with finitely many degrees of freedom. Many of the open problems were suggested by the participants of the conference ‘Finite-dimensional Integrable Systems, FDIS 2017’ held at CRM, Barcelona in July 2017. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Finite dimensional integrable systems: new trends and methods’.

Algebraic Technique

In this paper, we give a short survey of recent results on the algebraic version of the Birkhoff conjecture for integrable billiards on surfaces of constant curvature. We also discuss integrable magnetic billiards. As a new application of the algebraic technique, we study the existence of polynomial integrals for the two-sided magnetic billiards introduced by Kozlov and Polikarpov.

Cusp Singularities

We discuss normal forms and symplectic invariants of parabolic orbits and cuspidal tori in integrable Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom. Such singularities appear in many integrable systems in geometry and mathematical physics and can be considered as the simplest example of degenerate singularities. We also suggest some new techniques which apparently can be used for studying symplectic invariants of degenerate singularities of more general type.

We consider the moduli space of flat SO (2 n  + 1)-connections (up to gauge transformations) on a Riemann surface, with fixed holonomy around a marked point. There are natural line bundles over this moduli space; we construct geometric representatives for the Chern classes of these line bundles, and prove that the ring generated by these Chern classes vanishes below the dimension of the moduli space, generalizing a conjecture of Newstead. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Finite dimensional integrable systems: new trends and methods’.

Tangent Bundles

In this review, we discuss new cases of integrable systems on the tangent bundles of finite-dimensional spheres. Such systems appear in the dynamics of multidimensional rigid bodies in nonconservative fields. These problems are described by systems with variable dissipation with zero mean. We found several new cases of integrability of equations of motion in terms of transcendental functions (in the sense of the classification of singularities) that can be expressed as finite combinations of elementary functions.

AbstractGiven a Lie superalgebra $${\mathfrak {g}}$$ g with a subalgebra $${\mathfrak {g}}_{\ge 0}$$ g ≥ 0 , and a finite-dimensional irreducible $${\mathfrak {g}}_{\ge 0}$$ g ≥ 0 -module F, the induced $${\mathfrak {g}}$$ g -module $$M(F)={\mathcal {U}}({\mathfrak {g}})\otimes _{{\mathcal {U}}({\mathfrak {g}}_{\ge 0})}F$$ M ( F ) = U ( g ) ⊗ U ( g ≥ 0 ) F is called a finite Verma module. In the present paper we classify the non-irreducible finite Verma modules over the largest exceptional linearly compact Lie superalgebra $${\mathfrak {g}}=E(5,10)$$ g = E ( 5 , 10 ) with the subalgebra $${\mathfrak {g}}_{\ge 0}$$ g ≥ 0 of minimal codimension. This is done via classification of all singular vectors in the modules M(F). Besides known singular vectors of degree 1,2,3,4 and 5, we discover two new singular vectors, of degrees 7 and 11. We show that the corresponding morphisms of finite Verma modules of degree 1,4,7, and 11 can be arranged in an infinite number of bilateral infinite complexes, which may be viewed as “exceptional” de Rham complexes for E(5, 10).
