We discuss the pairs of quadratic integrals of motion belonging to the n-dimensional space of independent integrals of motion in involution, that provide integrability of the corresponding Hamiltonian equations of motion by quadratures. In contrast to the Eisenhart theory, additional integrals of motion are polynomials of the fourth, sixth and other orders in momenta. The main focus is on the second-order Killing tensors corresponding to quadratic integrals of motion and relating to the special combinations of rotations and translations in Euclidean space.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
