The paper consists of two sections. In Section 1, we give a short review of KAM theory with an emphasis on Whitney smooth families of invariant tori in typical Hamiltonian and reversible systems. In Section 2, we prove a KAM-type result for…

Dynamical tunneling between symmetry related invariant tori is studied in the near-integrable regime. Using the kicked Harper model as an illustration, we show that the exponential decay of the wave functions in the classically forbidden…

Let $G$ be a complex semisimple Lie group and ${G}_{\mathbb R}$ a real form that contains a compact Cartan subgroup $T_{\mathbb R}$. Let $\pi$ be a discrete series representation of $G_{\mathbb R}$. We present geometric interpretations in…

We prove several new results concerning action minimizing periodic orbits of Tonelli Lagrangian systems on an oriented closed surface $M$. More specifically, we show that for every energy larger than the maximal energy of a constant orbit…

Orbit-attitude hovering of a spacecraft at the natural relative equilibria in the body-fixed frame of a uniformly rotating asteroid is discussed in the framework of the full spacecraft dynamics, in which the spacecraft is modeled as a rigid…

In this paper, we prove a KAM theorem in a-posteriori format, using the parameterization method to look invariant tori in non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems with $n$ degrees of freedom that depend periodically or quasi-periodically (QP) on…

We consider a one-parameter family of invertible maps of a two-dimensional lattice, obtained by discretising the space of planar rotations. We let the angle of rotation approach $\pi/2$, and show that the limit of vanishing discretisation…

Following the techniques of [4], we formulate a Normal Form Lemma suited to close to be integrable Hamiltonian systems where not all the coordinates are action angles. The Lemma turns to be useful in the theory of KAM tori of…

We report three manifestly Lorentz-invariant Hamiltonian formulations of minimally and nonminimally coupled fermion fields to the Holst action. These formulations are achieved by making a suitable parametrization of both the tetrad and the…

Frozen orbits are always important foci of orbit design because of their valuable characteristics that their eccentricity and argument of pericentre remain constant on average. This study investigates quasi-circular frozen orbits and…

When a group acts on a set, it naturally partitions it into orbits, giving rise to orbit problems. These are natural algorithmic problems, as symmetries are central in numerous questions and structures in physics, mathematics, computer…

We study the classical Rajeev-Ranken model, a Hamiltonian system with three degrees of freedom describing nonlinear continuous waves in a 1+1-dimensional nilpotent scalar field theory pseudodual to the SU(2) principal chiral model. While it…

Rowmotion is a simple cyclic action on the distributive lattice of order ideals of a poset: it sends the order ideal x to the order ideal generated by the minimal elements not in x. It can also be computed in "slow motion" as a sequence of…

A useful crude approximation for Abelian functions is developed and applied to orbits. The bound orbits in the power-law potentials A*r^{-alpha} take the simple form (l/r)^k = 1 + e cos(m*phi), where k = 2 - alpha > 0 and 'l' and 'e' are…

The ``Fundamental Theorem" given by Arnold in [2] asserts the persistence of full dimensional invariant tori for 2-scale Hamiltonian systems. However, persistence in multi-scale systems is much more complicated and difficult. In this paper,…

In this paper, we study the persistence of invariant tori of integrable Hamiltonian systems satisfying R\"{u}ssmann's non-degeneracy condition when symplectic integrators are applied to them. Meanwhile, we give an estimate of the measure of…

In this paper we completely classify symplectic actions of a torus $T$ on a compact connected symplectic manifold $(M, \sigma)$ when some, hence every, principal orbit is a coisotropic submanifold of $(M, \sigma)$. That is, we construct an…

We give a stably birational classification for algebraic tori of dimensions $3$ and $4$ over a field $k$. First, we define the weak stably equivalence of algebraic tori and show that there exist $13$ (resp. $128$) weak stably equivalent…

This paper concerns the existence of multiple rotating quasi-periodic solutions for second order Hamiltonian systems with sub-quadratic potential. Such solutions have the form $x(t+T)=Qx(t)$ for some orthogonal matrix $Q$. To deal with such…
