Abstract

In 2005 Dullin et al. proved that thenonzero vector of Maslov indices is an eigenvector with eigenvalue1 of the monodromy matrices of an integrable Hamiltonian system.We take a close look at the geometry behind this result and extendit to the more general context of possibly non-Hamiltonian systems.We construct a bundle morphism definedon the lattice bundle of an (general) integrable system, which canbe seen as a generalization of the vector of Maslov indices. The nontriviality of this bundle morphism implies the existence of common eigenvectors with eigenvalue 1of the monodromy matrices, and gives rise to a corank 1 toric foliationrefining the original one induced by the integrable system. Furthermore,we show that, in the case where the system has 2 degrees of freedom,this implies the existence of a compatible free 1 action on the regular part of the system.
