Abstract
We define the Landau problem on two-dimensional ellipsoid, hyperboloid and paraboloid of revolution. Starting from the two-center McIntosh-Cisneros-Zwanziger (MICZ)-Kepler system and making the reduction into these two-dimensional surfaces, we obtain the Hamiltonians of the charged particle moving on the corresponding surface of revolution in the magnetic field conserving the symmetry of the two-dimensional surface (Landau problem). For each case we figure out the values of parameter for which the qualitative character of the motion coincides with that of a free particle moving on the same two-dimensional surface. For the case of finite trajectories we construct the action-angle variables.
