On the N-Extended Euler System. Generalized Jacobi Elliptic Functions

We study the integrable system
Ó¬i(Ï…)Í´ = αi âˆ� Ó¬j(Ï…), Ìý Ìý Ìý Ìý Ìý ÌýÌý α2∈â„�,ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý (1≤ i; j ≤ N)
ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý j≠i
of first order differential equations as a initial value problem Ӭi(0)∈�. The analysis is based on its quadratic first integrals Cij = αi Ӭj(υ)2 - αj Ӭi(υ)2. When N = 3 this system generalizes the classic Euler system for the rigid
body, thus we call it N-extended Euler system. Denoting Ó¬ = (Ó¬1, … , Ó¬N), the function Ω(Ï…) = ⃦ӬÌý ⃦2 generalizes the Weierstrass elliptic function. For each dimension N ≥ 5 the system defines a family of functions, generically hyperelliptic functions.

In this presentation we focus on the cases N = 4 and N = 5. Taking into account its nested structure of the system, we propose parametrizations υ → υ*: dυ = g(Ӭi) dυ that separates each trajectory from its time equation.The main result is the generalization of the Jacobi elliptic functions. Other aspects such as the geometric properties of the N-system or the numeric computation of the functions involved, are also in progress.
