Abstract: We study lifts of integrable systems by means of generalized Stäckel geometry. To this end, we present the notion of Stäckel lift as a unified setting for the construction of new classes of integrable Hamiltonian systems of physical interest. The Stäckel lift extends the geometric framework underlying both the Riemannian and the Lorentzian-type classical Eisenhart lifts. Moreover, we prove that Hamiltonian systems constructed through momentum-dependent Stäckel matrices are naturally endowed with a non-trivial symplectic-Haantjes structure. We further illustrate applications to magnetic systems separable in cylindrical coordinates; we describe them within the Stäckel framework by means of modified Stäckel bases. Finally, we show that explicitly momentum-dependent lifting matrices generate Platonic-wave geometries with potential applications in modified gravity theories, or momentum-dependent metrics of Hamilton and Finsler geometries.
