Decompositions of the unitary group U(n) are useful tools in quantum information theory as they allow one to decompose unitary evolutions into local evolutions and evolutions causing entanglement. Several recursive decompositions have been…
A common problem in physics and engineering is determination of the orientation of an object given its angular velocity. When the direction of the angular velocity changes in time, this is a nontrivial problem involving coupled differential…

An integration by parts formula is the foundation for stochastic analysis on path spaces over a (finite dimensional) Riemannian manifold or over $R^n$, from which we may deduce the operator $d$ is closable and define the Laplacian operator…
Lie systems in Quantum Mechanics are studied from a geometric point of view. In particular, we develop methods to obtain time evolution operators of time-dependent Schrodinger equations of Lie type and we show how these methods explain…

We try to write (generic) elements of classical simple Lie algebras as sums of as few elements of the orbit C of long root vectors as possible. If the Lie algebra in question is sl_n or sp_n, then C consists of all rank 1 matrices in the…
Planetary, stellar and galactic physics often rely on the general restricted gravitational N-body problem to model the motion of a small-mass object under the influence of much more massive objects. Here, I formulate the general restricted…
A classical approach to the multibody systems (MBS) modeling is to use absolute coordinates, i.e., a set of (possibly redundant) coordinates that describe the absolute position and orientation of the individual bodies with respect to an…
This work concerns the definition and analysis of a new class of Lie systems on Poisson manifolds enjoying rich geometric features: the Lie--Hamilton systems. We devise methods to study their superposition rules, time independent constants…
The adjoint action of a finite group of Lie type on its Lie algebra is studied. A simple formula is conjectured for the number of split semisimple orbits of a given genus. This conjecture is proved for type A, and partial results are…
Here we present a new approach to compute symmetries of rational second order ordinary differential equations (rational 2ODEs). This method can compute Lie symmetries (point symmetries, dynamical symmetries and non-local symmetries)…
We consider a class of linear ODEs of second order with variable coefficients and construct its Lie algebra of Lie group of equivalence transformations. Further we find invariants and differential invariants of this Lie algebra and by using…
To solve the Cahn-Hilliard equation numerically, a new time integration algorithm is proposed, which is based on a combination of the Eyre splitting and the local iteration modified (LIM) scheme. The latter is employed to tackle the…
A Lie system is a non-autonomous system of ordinary differential equations describing the integral curves of a $t$-dependent vector field taking values in a finite-dimensional Lie algebra of vector fields. Lie systems have been generalised…

We study so called regular Lie algebras, i.e. Lie algebras in which each nonzero element is regular. We make a connection with an open problem whether any element of reduced trace zero in a simple associative algebra is a commutator.
Optimal control in general, and flatness-based control in particular, of robotic arms necessitate to compute the first and second time derivatives of the joint torques/forces required to achieve a desired motion. In view of the required…
