We characterize non-degenerate Lagrangians of the form $ \int f(u_x, u_y, u_t) dx dy dt $ such that the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equations $ (f_{u_x})_x+ (f_{u_y})_y+ (f_{u_t})_t=0 $ are integrable by the method of hydrodynamic…
A new Lagrangian formulation with complex currents is developed and yields a direct and simple method for modeling three-phase permanent-magnet and induction machines. The Lagrangian is the sum a mechanical one and of a magnetic one. This…

Special relativity beyond its basic treatment can be inaccessible, in particular because introductory physics courses typically view special relativity as decontextualized from the rest of physics. We seek to place special relativity back…
We extend the variational problem of Wheeler-Feynman electrodynamics by putting the electromagnetic functional in a local space of absolutely continuous trajectories possessing a derivative (velocities) of bounded variation. Generalizing…

The classical Lagrange formalism is generalized to the case of arbitrary stationary (but not necessarily conservative) dynamical systems. It is shown that the equations of motion for such systems can be derived in the standard ways from the…
This work presents higher order Lagrangian dynamics possessing locally conformal character. More concretely, locally conformal higher order Euler-Lagrange equations are written with particular focus on the second- and the third-order cases.
Using well known Lagrangean techniques for uncovering the gauge symmetries of a Lagrangean, we derive the transformation laws for the phase space variables corresponding to local symmetries of the Hamilton equations of motion. These…

We consider Lagrangians in Hamilton's principle defined on the tangent space $TG$ of a Lie group $G$. Invariance of such a Lagrangian under the action of $G$ leads to the symmetry-reduced Euler-Lagrange equations called the Euler-Poincar\'e…
Using similarity transformations we construct explicit nontrivial solutions of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations with potentials and nonlinearities depending on time and on the spatial coordinates. We present the general theory and use it…
We consider the non-linear classical field theory which results from adding to the Maxwell's Lagrangian the contributions from the weak-field Euler-Heisenberg Lagrangian and a non-uniform part which involves derivatives of the electric and…
We model pacemaker effects of an algebraically localized heterogeneity in a 1 dimensional array of oscillators with nonlocal coupling. We assume the oscillators obey simple phase dynamics and that the array is large enough so that it can be…
Liouville (super)integrability of a Hamiltonian system of differential equations is based on the existence of globally well-defined constants of the motion, while Lie point symmetries provide a local approach to conserved integrals.…
