Abstract

This paper constructs completely integrable convex Hamiltonians on the cotangent bundle of certain k bundles over l. A central role is played by the Lax representation of a Bogoyavlenskij–Toda lattice. The classification of these systems, up to iso-energetic topological conjugacy, is related to the classification of abelian groups of Anosov toral automorphisms by their topological entropy function.
