Integrable Hamiltonian systems from reductions of doubles of compact Lie groups (for the school) and TBA (for the workshop)
We deal with reductions of integrable `master systems' living on the `classical doubles' of any semisimple, connected and simply connected compact Lie group G.
The doubles in question are the cotangent bundle, the Heisenberg double and the internally fused quasi-Poisson/quasi-Hamiltonian double, each of which carries two natural integrable systems. In the cotangent bundle case, one of the integrable systems is generated by the class functions of G and the other one by the invariant functions of its Lie algebra. The reduction is defined by taking quotientby the cotangent lift of the conjugation action of G on itself, and this generalizes to the other two doubles. The quotient space of the internally fused double represents the moduli space of flat principal G-connections on the torus with a hole.
We explain that degenerate integrability of the master systems is inherited on the smooth component of the Poisson quotient corresponding to the principal orbit type for the pertinent G-action, and present explicit formulas for the reduced Poisson structure and equations of motion in terms of dynamical r-matrices after further restriction to a dense open subset.
