Lax matrices for a 1-parameter subfamily of van Diejen--Toda chains

In this paper, we construct Lax matrices for certain relativistic open Toda chains endowed with a one-sided 1-parameter boundary interaction. Built upon the Lax representation of the dynamics, an algebraic solution algorithm is also exhibited. To our best knowledge, this particular 1-parameter subfamily of van Diejen--Toda chains has not been analyzed in earlier literature.

Self-duality and scattering map for the hyperbolic van Diejen systems with two coupling parameters (with an appendix by S. Ruijsenaars)

In this paper, we construct global action-angle variables for a certain two-parameter family of hyperbolic van Diejen systems. Following Ruijsenaars' ideas on the translation invariant models, the proposed action-angle variables come from a thorough analysis of the commutation relation obeyed by the Lax matrix, whereas the proof of their canonicity is based on the study of the scattering theory. As a consequence, we show that the van Diejen system of our interest is self-dual with a factorized scattering map. Also, in an appendix by S. Ruijsenaars, a novel proof of the spectral asymptotics of certain exponential type matrix flows is presented. This result is of crucial importance in our scattering-theoretical analysis.

Lax representation of the hyperbolic van Diejen dynamics with two coupling parameters

In this paper, we construct a Lax pair for the classical hyperbolic van Diejen system with two independent coupling parameters. Built upon this construction, we show that the dynamics can be solved by a projection method, which in turn allows us to initiate the study of the scattering properties. As a consequence, we prove the equivalence between the first integrals provided by the eigenvalues of the Lax matrix and the family of van Diejen's commuting Hamiltonians. Also, at the end of the paper, we propose a candidate for the Lax matrix of the hyperbolic van Diejen system with three independent coupling constants.

Generalized spin Sutherland systems revisited

We present generalizations of the spin Sutherland systems obtained earlier by Blom and Langmann and by Polychronakos in two different ways: from SU(n) Yang--Mills theory on the cylinder and by constraining geodesic motion on the N-fold direct product of SU(n) with itself, for any N>1. Our systems are in correspondence with the Dynkin diagram automorphisms of arbitrary connected and simply connected compact simple Lie groups. We give a finite-dimensional as well as an infinite-dimensional derivation and shed light on the mechanism whereby they lead to the same classical integrable systems. The infinite-dimensional approach, based on twisted current algebras (alias Yang--Mills with twisted boundary conditions), was inspired by the derivation of the spinless Sutherland model due to Gorsky and Nekrasov. The finite-dimensional method relies on Hamiltonian reduction under twisted conjugations of N-fold direct product groups, linking the quantum mechanics of the reduced systems to representation theory similarly as was explored previously in the N=1 case.

Scattering theory of the hyperbolic BC(n) Sutherland and the rational BC(n) Ruijsenaars--Schneider--van Diejen models

In this paper, we investigate the scattering properties of the hyperbolic BC(n) Sutherland and the rational BC(n) Ruijsenaars-Schneider-van Diejen many-particle systems with three independent coupling constants. Utilizing the recently established action-angle duality between these classical integrable models, we construct their wave and scattering maps. In particular, we prove that for both particle systems the scattering map has a factorized form.

On the r-matrix structure of the hyperbolic BC(n) Sutherland model

Working in a symplectic reduction framework, we construct a dynamical r-matrix for the classical hyperbolic BC(n) Sutherland model with three independent coupling constants. We also examine the Lax representation of the dynamics and its equivalence with the Hamiltonian equation of motion.

The hyperbolic BC(n) Sutherland and the rational BC(n) Ruijsenaars-Schneider-van Diejen models: Lax matrices and duality

In this paper, we construct canonical action-angle variables for both the hyperbolic BC(n) Sutherland and the rational BC(n) Ruijsenaars-Schneider-van Diejen models with three independent coupling constants. As a byproduct of our symplectic reduction approach, we establish the action-angle duality between these many-particle systems. The presented dual reduction picture builds upon the construction of a Lax matrix for the BC(n)-type rational Ruijsennars-Schneider-van Diejen model.

On the scattering theory of the classical hyperbolic C(n) Sutherland model

In this paper we study the scattering theory of the classical hyperbolic Sutherland model associated with the C(n) root system. We prove that for any values of the coupling constants the scattering map has a factorized form. As a byproduct of our analysis, we propose a Lax matrix for the rational C(n) Ruijsenaars-Schneider-van Diejen model with two independent coupling constants, thereby setting the stage to establish the duality between the hyperbolic C(n) Sutherland and the rational C(n) Ruijsenaars-Schneider-van Diejen models.

Derivations of the trigonometric BC(n) Sutherland model by quantum Hamiltonian reduction

The BC(n) Sutherland Hamiltonian with coupling constants parametrized by three arbitrary integers is derived by reductions of the Laplace operator of the group U(N). The reductions are obtained by applying the Laplace operator on spaces of certain vector valued functions equivariant under suitable symmetric subgroups of U(N)\times U(N). Three different reduction schemes are considered, the simplest one being the compact real form of the reduction of the Laplacian of GL(2n,C) to the complex BC(n) Sutherland Hamiltonian previously studied by Oblomkov.

Hamiltonian reductions of free particles under polar actions of compact Lie groups

Classical and quantum Hamiltonian reductions of free geodesic systems of complete Riemannian manifolds are investigated. The reduced systems are described under the assumption that the underlying compact symmetry group acts in a polar manner in the sense that there exist regularly embedded, closed, connected submanifolds meeting all orbits orthogonally in the configuration space. Hyperpolar actions on Lie groups and on symmetric spaces lead to families of integrable systems of spin Calogero-Sutherland type.

On the self-adjointness of certain reduced Laplace-Beltrami operators

The self-adjointness of the reduced Hamiltonian operators arising from the Laplace-Beltrami operator of a complete Riemannian manifold through quantum Hamiltonian reduction based on a compact isometry group is studied. A simple sufficient condition is provided that guarantees the inheritance of essential self-adjointness onto a certain class of restricted operators and allows us to conclude the self-adjointness of the reduced Laplace-Beltrami operators in a concise way. As a consequence, the self-adjointness of spin Calogero-Sutherland type reductions of `free' Hamiltonians under polar actions of compact Lie groups follows immediately.

Twisted spin Sutherland models from quantum Hamiltonian reduction

Recent general results on Hamiltonian reductions under polar group actions are applied to study some reductions of the free particle governed by the Laplace-Beltrami operator of a compact, connected, simple Lie group. The reduced systems associated with arbitrary finite dimensional irreducible representations of the group by using the symmetry induced by twisted conjugations are described in detail. These systems generically yield integrable Sutherland type many-body models with spin, which are called twisted spin Sutherland models if the underlying twisted conjugations are built on non-trivial Dynkin diagram automorphisms. The spectra of these models can be calculated, in principle, by solving certain Clebsch-Gordan problems, and the result is presented for the models associated with the symmetric tensorial powers of the defining representation of SU(N).

A class of Calogero type reductions of free motion on a simple Lie group

The reductions of the free geodesic motion on a non-compact simple Lie group G based on the $G_+ \times G_+$ symmetry given by left- and right multiplications for a maximal compact subgroup $G_+ \subset G$ are investigated. At generic values of the momentum map this leads to (new) spin Calogero type models. At some special values the `spin' degrees of freedom are absent and we obtain the standard $BC_n$ Sutherland model with three independent coupling constants from SU(n+1,n) and from SU(n,n). This generalization of the Olshanetsky-Perelomov derivation of the $BC_n$ model with two independent coupling constants from the geodesics on $G/G_+$ with G=SU(n+1,n) relies on fixing the right-handed momentum to a non-zero character of $G_+$. The reductions considered permit further generalizations and work at the quantized level, too, for non-compact as well as for compact G.

Spin Calogero models associated with Riemannian symmetric spaces of negative curvature

The Hamiltonian symmetry reduction of the geodesics system on a symmetric space of negative curvature by the maximal compact subgroup of the isometry group is investigated at an arbitrary value of the momentum map. Restricting to regular elements in the configuration space, the reduction generically yields a spin Calogero model with hyperbolic interaction potentials defined by the root system of the symmetric space. These models come equipped with Lax pairs and many constants of motion, and can be integrated by the projection method. The special values of the momentum map leading to spinless Calogero models are classified under some conditions, explaining why the $BC_n$ models with two independent coupling constants are associated with $SU(n+1,n)/S(U(n+1)\times U(n))$ as found by Olshanetsky and Perelomov. In the zero curvature limit our models reproduce rational spin Calogero models studied previously and similar models correspond to other (affine) symmetric spaces, too. The construction works at the quantized level as well.

Spin Calogero models and dynamical r-matrices

The main point of the construction of spin Calogero type classical integrable systems based on dynamical r-matrices, developed by L.-C. Li and P. Xu, is reviewed. It is shown that non-Abelian dynamical r-matrices with variables in a reductive Lie algebra ${\cal F}$ and their Abelian counterparts with variables in a Cartan subalgebra of ${\cal F}$ lead essentially to the same models.

Spin Calogero models obtained from dynamical r-matrices and geodesic motion

We study classical integrable systems based on the Alekseev-Meinrenken dynamical r-matrices corresponding to automorphisms of self-dual Lie algebras, ${\cal G}$. We prove that these r-matrices are uniquely characterized by a non-degeneracy property and apply a construction due to Li and Xu to associate spin Calogero type models with them. The equation of motion of any model of this type is found to be a projection of the natural geodesic equation on a Lie group $G$ with Lie algebra ${\cal G}$, and its phase space is interpreted as a Hamiltonian reduction of an open submanifold of the cotangent bundle $T^*G$, using the symmetry arising from the adjoint action of $G$ twisted by the underlying automorphism. This shows the integrability of the resulting systems and gives an algorithm to solve them. As illustrative examples we present new models built on the involutive diagram automorphisms of the real split and compact simple Lie algebras, and also explain that many further examples fit in the dynamical r-matrix framework.
