abstract

  • We consider the automorphism group of the geometry of an integrable system. The geometric structure used to obtain it is generated by a normal-form representation of integrable systems that is independent of any additional geometric structure like symplectic, Poisson, etc. Such a geometric structure ensures a generalized toroidal bundle on the carrier space of the system. Noncanonical diffeomorphisms of this structure generate alternative Hamiltonian structures for completely integrable Hamiltonian systems. The energy-period theorem for dynamical systems implies the first nontrivial obstruction to the equivalence of integrable systems.
