Geodesics on the ellipsoid and monodromy
After reviewing the properties of the geodesic flow on the three dimensional ellipsoid with distinct semi-axes, we investigate the three-dimensional ellipsoid with the two middle semi-axes being equal, corresponding to a Hamiltonian invariant under rotations. The system is Liouville-integrable, and...
