A commonly used approach to study stability in a complex system is by analyzing the Jacobian matrix at an equilibrium point of a dynamical system. The equilibrium point is stable if all eigenvalues have negative real parts. Here, by…
We present the Jacobi metric formalism for dynamical wormholes. We show that in isotropic dynamical spacetimes , a first integral of the geodesic equations can be found using the Jacobi metric, and without any use of geodesic equation. This…

For the Newtonian N-body problem, we study the Jacobi-Maupertuis metric of the nonnegative energy levels. We show that the geodesic rays are expansive, that is to say, all the distances between the bodies must be divergent functions. More…
We have studied optical metrics via null geodesics and optical-mechanical formulation of classical mechanics, and described the geometry and optics of mechanical systems with drag dependent quadratically on velocity. Then we studied null…
This study investigated the stability of Hamilton--Jacobi equation on general metric spaces with a perturbation in some whole space. This type of stability appears in the domain perturbation problem. We find that the stability holds when…
The Jacobi evolution method has been widely used in the QCD analysis of structure function data. However a recent paper claims that there are serious problems with its convergence and stability. Here we briefly review the evidence for the…
In this paper, via the least squares variational method, we develop the Lagrange geometry (in the sense of nonlinear connection, d-torsions and the deviation curvature tensor) and the KCC theory for a given dynamical system. Further, a…
It is shown that any second order dynamic equation on a configuration bundle $Q\to R$ of non-relativistic mechanics is equivalent to a geodesic equation with respect to a (non-linear) connection on the tangent bundle $TQ\to Q$. The case of…
For a general spherically four--dimensional metric the notion of "circularity" of a family of equatorial geodesic trajectories is defined in geometrical terms. The main object turns out to be the angular--momentum function $J$ obeying a…
We present a construction of the Jacobi-Maupertuis (JM) principle for an equation of the Lienard type, viz \ddot{x} + f(x)x^2 + g(x) = 0 using Jacobi's last multiplier. The JM metric allows us to reformulate the Newtonian equation of motion…
Global stability of the systems has always been vital of importance; however, this concept has not yet been sufficiently developed for the nonlinear systems. This paper extends the Jacobian matrix so that this method be able to seek the…
Two entropic dynamical models are considered. The geometric structure of the statistical manifolds underlying these models is studied. It is found that in both cases, the resulting metric manifolds are negatively curved. Moreover, the…
The asymptotic stability of a global solution satisfying Hamilton-Jacobi equations with jumps will be analyzed in dependence on the strong dissipativity of the jump control function and using orbits of the differentiable flows to describe…
We perform the study of the stability of the Lorenz system by using the Jacobi stability analysis, or the Kosambi-Cartan-Chern (KCC) theory. The Lorenz model plays an important role for understanding hydrodynamic instabilities and the…
The Jacobi-Maupertuis metric allows one to reformulate Newton's equations as geodesic equations for a Riemannian metric which degenerates at the Hill boundary. We prove that a JM geodesic which comes sufficiently close to a regular point of…
It is shown that the free motion of massive particles moving in static spacetimes are given by the geodesics of an energy-dependent Riemannian metric on the spatial sections analogous to Jacobi's metric in classical dynamics. In the…
A powerful mathematical method for the investigation of the properties of dynamical systems is represented by the Kosambi-Cartan-Chern (KCC) theory. In this approach the time evolution of a dynamical system is described in geometric terms,…
Geodesic equations are solved when at least two of $\tau$, $\theta$, $\varphi$ are constant on metrics of self-dual Taub-NUT type. They can also be solved also on self-dual Taub-NUT metrics if only $r$, $\theta$ or $\varphi$ is constant.…
