In this paper we construct generalizations to spheres of the well known Levi-Civita, Kustaanheimo-Steifel and Hurwitz regularizing transformations in Euclidean spaces of dimensions 2, 3 and 5. The corresponding classical and quantum mechanical analogues of the Kepler-Coulomb problem on these spheres are discussed.
In this work we generalise previous results connecting (rational) Gaudin magnet models and classical separation of variables. It is shown that the connection persists for the case of linear r-matrix algebra which corresponds to the trigonometric 4x4 r-matrix (of the XXZ type). We comment also on the corresponding problem for the elliptic (XYZ) r-matrix. A prescription for obtaining integrable systems associated with multiple poles of an L-operator is given.
We consider integrable systems that are connected with orthogonal separation of variables in complex Riemannian spaces of constant curvature. An isomorphism with the hyperbolic Gaudin magnet, previously pointed out by one of us, extends to coordinates of this type. The complete classification of these separable coordinate systems is provided by means of the corresponding $L$-matrices for the Gaudin magnet. The limiting procedures (or $ε$ calculus) which relate various degenerate orthogonal coordinate systems play a crucial result in the classification of all such systems.
