On generalized Volterra systems

We construct a large family of evidently integrable Hamiltonian systems which are generalizations of the KM system. The Hamiltonian vector field is homogeneous cubic but in a number of cases a simple change of variables transforms such a system to a quadratic Lotka-Volterra system. We present in detail all such systems in dimensions 4 and 5 and we also give some examples from higher dimensions. This construction generalizes easily to each complex simple Lie algebra.

so(p,q) Toda Systems

We define an integrable hamiltonian system of Toda type associated with the real Lie algebra $\so{p}{q}$. As usual there exists a periodic and a non-periodic version. We construct, using the root space, two Lax pair representations and the associated Poisson tensors. We prove Liouville integrability and examine the multi-hamiltonian structure. The system is a projection of a canonical $A_n$ type Toda lattice via a Flaschka type transformation. It is also obtained via a complex change of variables from the classical Toda lattice.
