Different dynamical symmetry breaking patterns are explored for the two dimensional phi4 model with higher order derivative terms. The one-loop saddle point expansion predicts a rather involved phase structure and a new Gaussian critical…

Let $(X,d,f)$ be a dynamical system, where $(X,d)$ is a compact metric space and $f:X\rightarrow X$ is a continuous map. Using the concepts of \textit{g-almost product property} and \textit{uniform separation property} introduced by Pfister…

Without invalidating quantum mechanics as a principle underlying the dynamics of a fundamental theory, it is possible to ask for even more basic dynamical laws that may yield quantum mechanics as the machinery needed for its statistical…

Let $H$ be a subgroup of a finite group $G$. We say that $H$ satisfies partial $\Pi$-property in $G$ if there exists a chief series $\mathit{\Gamma}_G:1=G_0<G_1<\cdots<G_n=G$ of $G$ such that for every $G$-chief factor $G_i/G_{i-1}$ ($1\leq…

By studying various rational integrable maps on $\mathbf{\hat C}^d$ with $p$ invariants, we show that periodic points form an invariant variety of dimension $\ge p$ for each period, in contrast to the case of nonintegrable maps in which…

Let $T\subset\mathbb{R}$ and $(X,\mathcal{U})$ be a uniform space with an at most countable gage of pseudometrics $\{d_p:p\in\mathcal{P}\}$ of the uniformity $\mathcal{U}$. Given $f\in X^T$ (=the family of all functions from $T$ into $X$),…

It is known that first-order logic with some counting extensions can be efficiently evaluated on graph classes with bounded expansion, where depth-$r$ minors have constant density. More precisely, the formulas are $\exists x_1 ... x_k \#y…

The standard lore in noncommutative physics is the use of first order variational description of a dynamical system to probe the space noncommutativity and its consequences in the dynamics in phase space. As the ultimate goal is to…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, let G=GL_n be the general linear group over $k$, let g=gl_n be its Lie algebra and let $D_s$ be subalgebra of the divided power algebra of g^* spanned by the divided power…

Variational principles in mechanics, field theory and geometric analysis are usually formulated on closed admissible classes, where boundary variations are either fixed or independently cancelled through natural boundary conditions.…

We give a mechanical example concerning the fact that some regularity is necessary in KAM theory. We consider the model given by the vertical bouncing motion of a ball on a periodically moving plate. Denoting with $f$ the motion of the…

Suppose that $A \subset \mathbb{R}$ has positive upper density, \[ \limsup_{|I| \to \infty} \frac{|A \cap I|}{|I|} = \delta > 0,\] and $P(t) \in \mathbb{R}[t]$ is a polynomial with no constant or linear term, or more generally a non-flat…

A method for designing variational principles for the dynamics of a possibly dissipative and non-conservatively forced chain of particles is demonstrated. Some qualitative features of the formulation are discussed.

Let $F(y):=\displaystyle\int_t^TL(s, y(s), y'(s))\,ds$ be a positive functional, unnecessarily autonomous, defined on the space $ W^{1,p}([t,T]; \mathbb R^n)$ ($p\ge 1$) of Sobolev functions, possibly with prescribed one or two end point…

For an $S$-valued function $f$ of $m \geq 1$ variables we consider the dynamical process in which the output $f(\overline{v})$ replaces exactly one entry of the input $\overline{v} \in S^m$ at each step. This can be viewed as a special case…

We study relations between vakonomically and nonholonomically constrained Lagrangian dynamics for the same set of linear constraints. The basic idea is to compare both situations at the level of variational principles, not equations of…

We consider functions $f(v)=\min_{A\in K}{Av}$ and $g(v)=\max_{A\in K}{Av}$, where $K$ is a finite set of nonnegative matrices and by "min" and "max" we mean coordinate-wise minimum and maximum. We transfer known results about properties of…

Gauge fields frequently used as an independent construction additional to so-called wave fields of matter. This artificial separation is of course useful in some applications (like Berry's interactions between the "heavy" and "light"…
