“…Such argument, however, does not provide a complete outline of the problem, since, as a matter of fact, leaves important questions unanswered, like, as an example, the existence of action-angle coordinates, of periodic orbits, the complete picture of the bifurcation diagram. Because of this, the problem has received, in the last decades, a renewed interest and noticeable papers appeared [16,3,8,4]. A common ingredient of the mentioned literature is a separation-like change of coordinates, possibly combined with a "regularising" change of time, which allows, following Euler's ideas, to decouple the Hamiltonian.…”
