We establish homogenization for nondegenerate viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equations in one space dimension when the diffusion coefficient $a(x,\omega) > 0$ and the Hamiltonian $H(p,x,\omega)$ are general stationary ergodic processes in $x$. Our…
We prove several results on symplectic varieties with a Hamiltonian action of a reductive group having invariant Lagrangian subvarieties. Our main result states that the images of the moment maps of a Hamiltonian variety and of the…
A convergence theory for the $hp$-FEM applied to a variety of constant-coefficient Helmholtz problems was pioneered in the papers [Melenk-Sauter, 2010], [Melenk-Sauter, 2011], [Esterhazy-Melenk, 2012], [Melenk-Parsania-Sauter, 2013]. This…
Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithms which combine numerical approximation of Hamiltonian dynamics on finite intervals with stochastic refreshment and Metropolis correction are popular sampling schemes, but it is known that they may…
We consider a quasi-linear homogenization problem in a two-dimensional pre-fractal domain $\Omega_n$, for $n\in\mathbb{N}$, surrounded by thick fibers of amplitude $\varepsilon$. We introduce a sequence of "pre-homogenized" energy…
Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact connected Lie group $G$ on an aspherical symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$. Under suitable assumptions, counting gauge equivalence classes of (symplectic) vortices on the plane $R^2$ conjecturally…
This paper introduces techniques of symplectic topology to the study of homoclinic orbits in Hamiltonian systems. The main result is a strong generalization of homoclinic existence results due to Sere and to Coti-Zelati, Ekeland and Sere,…
For a closed connected manifold N, we construct a family of functions on the Hamiltonian group G of the cotangent bundle T^*N, and a family of functions on the space of smooth functions with compact support on T^*N. These satisfy properties…
We study the dynamics of a class of Hamiltonian systems with dissipation, coupled to noise, in a singular (small mass) limit. We derive the homogenized equation for the position degrees of freedom in the limit, including the presence of a…
We prove rate of convergence results for singular perturbations of Hamilton-Jacobi equations in unbounded spaces where the fast operator is linear, uniformly elliptic and has an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck-type drift. The slow operator is a fully…
We introduce here a natural functional associated to any $b \in QH_* (M, \omega)$: \emph{spectral length functional}, on the space of "generalized paths" in $ \text {Ham}(M, \omega)$, closely related to both the Hofer length functional and…
This paper is the first attempt to systematically study properties of the effective Hamiltonian $\overline{H}$ arising in the periodic homogenization of some coercive but nonconvex Hamilton-Jacobi equations. Firstly, we introduce a new and…
This paper investigates ways to enlarge the Hamiltonian subgroup Ham of the symplectomorphism group Symp(M) of the symplectic manifold (M, \omega) to a group that both intersects every connected component of Symp(M) and characterizes…
We prove homogenization properties of random Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations on continuum percolation clusters, almost surely w.r.t. the law of the environment when the origin belongs to the unbounded component in the continuum.…
Applied to field theory, the familiar symplectic technique leads to instantaneous Hamiltonian formalism on an infinite-dimensional phase space. A true Hamiltonian partner of first order Lagrangian theory on fibre bundles $Y\to X$ is…
We show that a symplectic isotopy that is a $C^0$ limit of Hamiltonian isotopies is itself Hamiltonian, if the corresponding sequence of generating Hamiltonians converge in $L^{(1, \infty)}$ topology.
Let M be a compact Kaehler manifold equipped with a Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group G. In [Invent. Math. 67 (1982), no.~3, 515--538], Guillemin and Sternberg showed that there is a geometrically natural isomorphism between the…
The purpose of this paper is to show that the operator \begin{equation*} H\left(h\right) =-h^{2}\Delta_{x}-\Delta_{y}+V\left(x,y\right), \end{equation*}% $V$ is continuous (or $V\in L^{2}\left(\mathbb{R}_{x}^{n}\times…
We prove that (under appropriate orientation conditions, depending on $R$) a Hamiltonian isotopy $\psi^1$ of a symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$ fixing a relatively exact Lagrangian $L$ setwise must act trivially on $R_*(L)$, where $R_*$ is…
In this paper, we explore a consequence of symplectic duality (also known as 3d mirror symmetry) in the setting of enumerative geometry. The theory of quasimaps allows one to associate hypergeometric functions called vertex functions to…
