| Title: | The S0(4) Symmetry of the Kepler Problem - a simple proof |
| Seminar: | Symplectic Topology Seminar |
| Speaker: | Alain Albouy, Observatoire de Paris, CNRS |
| Abstract: |
| This SO(4) symmetry is called the hidden symmetry of the Kepler problem.
There is a certain confusion in the literature about it. An excellent
reference is
A characterization of the Ligon-Schaaf regularization map
RH Cushman, JJ Duistermaat - Communications on Pure and Applied
Mathematics, 1997 (actually this map was discovered by Bacry and Gyorgyi before Ligon and Schaaf).
Here we will present a simpler proof of the existence of this symmetry. |
