On a quadratic Poisson algebra and integrable Lotka-Volterra systems with solutions in terms of Lambert's W function

Abstract

We study a class of integrable nonhomogeneous Lotka-Volterra systems whose quadratic terms are defined by an antisymmetric matrix and whose linear terms consist of three blocks. We provide the Poisson algebra of their Darboux polynomials, and prove a contraction theorem. We then use these results to classify the systems according to the number of functionally independent (and, for some, commuting) integrals. We also establish separability/solvability by quadratures, given the solutions to the 2- and 3-dimensional systems, which we provide in terms of the Lambert W function.
