Then we consider the quantisation problem of the set of Hamiltonians pertaining to the problem, quite naturally called Bending Hamiltonians, and prove that their commutativity is preserved at the quantum level.}, doi = {10.1007/s10582-006-0415-9}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/1963/2537}, author = {Gregorio Falqui and Fabio Musso} }
