In this paper we present the theorem on Lie integrability by quadratures for time-independent Hamiltonian systems on symplectic and contact manifolds, and for time-dependent Hamiltonian systems on cosymplectic and cocontact manifolds. We show that having a solvable Lie algebra of constants of motion for a Hamiltonian system is equivalent to having a solvable Lie algebra of symmetries of the vector field defining the dynamics of the system, which allows us to find the solutions of the equations of motion by quadratures.
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.
