This new research is on the boundary of several mathematical and applied areas - geometry, differential equations, topology, Lie groups theory and mathematical physics. As an example of application - the proof that two famous systems - Euler case in dynamics of rigid body motion in 3-space (for example, the dynamics of flight of the satellite if 3-space) and dynamics of geodesics (i.e. the trajectories of locally minimal length) on the ellipsoid in 3-space (Jacoby problem) are topologically equivalent. The lecture will be illustrate by visual material and comments. The lecture will be interesting for many students and researchers from different areas of mathematics, physics and computer science.
