We study the Newton-like problem of minimal resistance for a two-dimensional body moving with constant velocity in a homogeneous rarefied medium of moving particles. The distribution of the particles over velocities is centrally symmetric.…
The classical Birkhoff ergodic theorem in its most popular version says that the time average along a single typical trajectory of a dynamical system is equal to the space average with respect to the ergodic invariant distribution. This…
We give explicit formulas as well as a quadratic time algorithm to solve (so called) generalized Vandermonde's systems of p linear equations and n variables. It allows in particular to find all (so called Lagrange's) interpolation polynoms…
To our knowledge, there are two main references [9], [12] regarding the periodical solutions of multi-time Euler-Lagrange systems, even if the multi-time equations appeared in 1935, being introduced by de Donder. That is why, the central…
We derive a perturbation expansion for general self-interacting random walks, where steps are made on the basis of the history of the path. Examples of models where this expansion applies are reinforced random walk, excited random walk, the…
We derive sufficient conditions for asymptotic and monotone exponential decay in mean square of solutions of the geometric Brownian motion with delay. The conditions are written in terms of the parameters and are explicit for the case of…
Why would anyone wish to generalize the already unappetizing subject of rigid body motion to an arbitrary number of dimensions? At first sight, the subject seems to be both repellent and superfluous. The author will try to argue that an…
This article is a description of elasticity theory for readers with mathematical background. The first sections are an abridgment of parts of the book by Marsden and Hughes, including a compact identification of the equations of motion as…
The form of the Lagrangian proposed in Part I of this study has been previously used for obtaining stationary ray paths between two endpoints in isotropic media. We extended it to general anisotropy by replacing the isotropic medium…
Einstein's theory of Brownian motion is revisited in order to formulate generalized kinetic theory of anomalous diffusion. It is shown that if the assumptions of analyticity and the existence of the second moment of the displacement…
The general, multidimensional barrier crossing problem for diffusive processes under the action of conservative forces is studied with the goal of developing tractable approximations. Particular attention is given to the effect of different…
Based on the d'Alembert-Lagrange-Poincar\'{e} variational principle, we formulate general equations of motion for mechanical systems subject to nonlinear nonholonomic constraints, that do not involve Lagrangian undetermined multipliers. We…
The generalized Lie symmetries of almost regular Lagrangians are studied, and their impact on the evolution of dynamical systems is determined. It is found that if the action has a generalized Lie symmetry, then the Lagrangian is…
That the speed of light is always c=300,000km/s relative to any observer in nonaccelerating motion is one of the foundational concepts of physics. Experimentally this was supposed to have been first revealed by the 1887 Michelson-Morley…
Generalized Lagrangian mean theories are used to analyze the interactions between mean flows and fluctuations, where the decomposition is based on a Lagrangian description of the flow. A systematic geometric framework was recently developed…
We provide an asymptotic expansion for the mean-value of the logarithm of the middle prime factor of an integer, defined according to multiplicity or not, thus generalising a recent study of McNew, Pollack, and Singha Roy. This yields an…
The possibility to derive an equation for the mean velocity field in turbulent flow by using classical statistical mechanics is investigated. An application of projection operator technique available in the literature is used for this…
In this study, the concept of dual Lorentzian homotetic exponential motions in is discussed and their velocities, accelerations obtained. Also, some geometric results between velocity and acceleration vectors of a point in a spatial motion…
For a L\'evy basis $L$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a suitable kernel function $f:\mathbb{R}^d \to \mathbb{R}$, consider the continuous spatial moving average field $X=(X_t)_{t\in \mathbb{R}^d}$ defined by $X_t = \int_{\mathbb{R}^d} f(t-s) \,…
In the extended Lagrange formalism of classical point dynamics, the system's dynamics is parametrized along a system evolution parameter $s$, and the physical time $t$ is treated as a \emph{dependent} variable $t(s)$ on equal footing with…
