A geometric approach to the separability of the Neumann-Rosochatius system. (English) Zbl 1051.37036

Summary: We study the separability of the Neumann-Rosochatius system on the \(n\)-dimensional sphere using the geometry of bi-Hamiltonian manifolds. Its well-known separation variables are recovered by means of a separability condition relating the Hamiltonian with a suitable \((1,1)\) tensor field on the sphere. This also allows us to iteratively construct the integrals of motion of the system.
