In the first part of the paper we introduce some geometric tools needed to describe slow-fast Hamiltonian systems on smooth manifolds. We start with a smooth Poisson bundle $p: M\to B$ of a regular (i.e. of constant rank) Poisson manifold…

We consider the Hamilton-Jacobi equation \[{H}(x,Du)+\lambda(x)u=c,\quad x\in M, \] where $M$ is a connected, closed and smooth Riemannian manifold. The functions ${H}(x,p)$ and $\lambda(x)$ are continuous. ${H}(x,p)$ is convex, coercive…

In this thesis we revise the concept of phase space in modern physics and devise a way to explicitly incorporate physical dimension into geometric mechanics. A historical account of metrology and phase space is given to illustrate the…

We show that with every separable calssical Stackel system of Benenti type on a Riemannian space one can associate, by a proper deformation of the metric tensor, a multi-parameter family of non-Hamiltonian systems on the same space, sharing…
It is shown that the parameters contained in any two complete solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation, corresponding to a given Hamiltonian, are related by means of a time-independent canonical transformation and that, in some cases, a…
