In a realistic scenario, the evolution of the rotational dynamics of a celestial or artificial body is subject to dissipative effects. Time-varying non-conservative forces can be due to, for example, a variation of the moments of inertia or…
We perturb with an additive Gaussian white noise the Hamiltonian system associated to a cubic anharmonic oscillator. The stochastic system is assumed to start from initial conditions that guarantee the existence of a periodic solution for…

This article is concerned with analytic Hamiltonian dynamical systems in infinite dimension in a neighborhood of an elliptic fixed point. Given a quadratic Hamiltonian, we consider the set of its analytic higher order perturbations. We…
We investigate autonomous perturbations on the orbits of LISA, namely the effects produced by fields that can be expressed only in terms of the position, but not of time in the Hill frame. This first step in the study of the LISA orbits has…
We revisit the dynamics of the post-Newtonian (PN) two-body problem for two inspiraling compact bodies. Starting from a matter-only reduced Hamiltonian, we present an adapted framework based on the Lie series approach, enabling the…
In this article we formulate and prove sufficient conditions for the existence of trajectories of nonstationary periodic solutions of autonomous Hamiltonian systems in a neighbourhood of equilibria. It is worth pointing out that assumptions…
Hamilton's equations with noise and friction possess a hidden supersymmetry, valid for time-independent as well as periodically time-dependent systems. It is used to derive topological properties of critical points and periodic trajectories…

The non-resonant secular dynamics of compact planetary systems are modeled by a perturbing function which is usually expanded in eccentricity and absolute inclination with respect to the invariant plane. Here, the expressions are given in a…
We consider the motion of a particle on a surface which is a small perturbation of the standard sphere. One may qualitatively describe the motion by means of a precessing great circle of the sphere. The observation is employed to derive a…
We study four particular 3-dimensional natural Hamiltonian systems defined in conformally Euclidean spaces. We prove their superintegrability and we obtain, in the four cases, the maximal number of functionally independent integrals of…
The problem of linear instability of a nonlinear traveling wave in a canonical Hamiltonian system with translational symmetry subject to superharmonic perturbations is discussed. It is shown that exchange of stability occurs when energy is…
We study the determination of the second-order normal form for perturbed Hamiltonians $H_{\epsilon}=H_0 +\epsilon H_1 +\frac{\epsilon^2}{2} H_2$, relative to the periodic flow of the unperturbed Hamiltonian $H_0$. The formalism presented…
Many equations that arise in a physical context can be posed in the form of a Hamiltonian system, meaning that there is a symplectic structure on an appropriate phase space, and a Hamiltonian functional with respect to which time evolution…

A periodic perturbation generates a complicated dynamics close to separatrices and saddle points. We construct an asymptotic solution which is close to the separatrix for the unperturbed Duffing's oscillator over a long time. This solution…
