  We study the algebra Sp(n,R) of the symplectic model, in particular for the
cases n=1,2,3, in a new way. Starting from the Poisson-bracket realization we
derive a set of partial differential equations for the generators as functions
of classical canonical variables. We obtain a solution to these equations that
represents the classical limit of a boson mapping of the algebra. The
relationship to the collective dynamics is formulated as a theorem that
associates the mapping with an exact solution of the time-dependent Hartree
approximation. This solution determines a decoupled classical symplectic
manifold, thus satisfying the criteria that define an exactly solvable model in
the theory of large amplitude collective motion. The models thus obtained also
provide a test of methods for constructing an approximately decoupled manifold
in fully realistic cases. We show that an algorithm developed in one of our
earlier works reproduces the main results of the theorem.
