Non-polynomial integrals of motion for polynomial dynamical systems

Here is a tentative Hamiltonian answer having 2 degrees of freedom. Take $H = (1/2)(1 + a x^2 + bxy + cy^2) (p_x ^2 + p_y ^2)$. for essentially any parameters $a, b, c$ for which $ax^2 + bxy + cy …

Two interacting bodies in an external field

I seriously doubt there is any general criteria. However there are more than one beautiful explicit examples of an external field which lead to an integrable problem. The simplest and probably best …

What is an integrable system?

I'll take off from the questioner's suggesting that maybe it's better to say what is a NON-integrable system is. The Newtonian planar three body problem, for most masses, has been proven to be non-in …
