Overview

We study quadratic integrability of systems with velocity dependent potentials in three-dimensional Euclidean space. Unlike in the case with only scalar potential, quadratic integrability with velocity dependent potentials does not imply separability in the configuration space. The leading order terms in the pairs of commuting integrals can either generalize or have no relation to the forms leading to separation in the absence of a vector potential. We call such pairs of integrals generalized, to distinguish them from the standard ones, which would correspond to separation. Here we focus on three cases of generalized non-subgroup type integrals, namely elliptic cylindrical, prolate/oblate spheroidal and circular parabolic integrals, together with one case not related to any coordinate system. We find two new integrable systems, non-separable in the configuration space, both with generalized elliptic cylindrical integrals. In the other cases, all systems found were already known and possess standard pairs of integrals. In the limit of vanishing vector potential, both systems reduce to free motion and therefore separate in every orthogonal coordinate system. Graphical abstract
