Geodesically compatible metrics. Existence of commutative conservation laws


Topalov, P (2002). Geodesically compatible metrics. Existence of commutative conservation laws. Cubo Matemática Educacional, 4(2):371-399.

Abstract

We give a natural geometric condition called geodesic compatibility that implies the existence of integrals in involution of the geodesic flow of a (pseudo)Riemannian metric. We prove that if two metrics satisfy the condition of geodesic compatibility then we can produce a hierarchy of metrics that also satisfy this condition. We apply our results for obtaining an infinite family (hierarchy) of completely integrable flows on the complex projective plane CPn.
