Turbiner's Euclidean-geometry separation conjecture

About 20 years old · traced to

Let HH be a Lie algebraic Schrödinger operator defined on a 2-dimensional manifold. The symbol of HH engenders a Euclidean geometry when the corresponding Gaussian curvature is zero. The spectral equation is

Hψ=Eψ.H\psi=E\psi.

Turbiner's second conjecture. If the symbol of HH engenders a Euclidean geometry, then the spectral equation Hψ=EψH\psi=E\psi can be solved by separation of variables. The paper states that this conjecture is false in general and provides a counterexample to the original conjecture.
