As is known that various dynamical systems including all Hamiltonian systems preserve volume in phase space. This qualitative geometrical property of the analytical solution should be respected in the sense of Geometric Integration. This…
We study the group of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms on a manifold. We develop a general theory of implicit generating forms. Our results generalize the classical formulas for generating functions of symplectic twist maps.
Variational integrators are derived for structure-preserving simulation of stochastic Hamiltonian systems with a certain type of multiplicative noise arising in geometric mechanics. The derivation is based on a stochastic discrete…
We present new, explicit, volume-preserving vector fields for polynomial divergence-free vector fields of arbitrary degree (both positive and negative). The main idea is to decompose the divergence polynomial by means of an appropriate…
In this letter, we present the general form of equations that generate a volume-preserving flow on a symplectic manifold (M, \omega). It is shown that every volume-preserving flow has some 2-forms acting the role of the Hamiltonian…
In this paper, we focus on the construction of high order volume preserving in- tegrators for divergence-free vector fields: the monomial basis, the exponential basis and tensor product of the monomial and the exponential basis. We first…
We briefly introduce the conception on Euler-Lagrange cohomology groups on a symplectic manifold $(\mathcal{M}^{2n}, \omega)$ and systematically present the general form of volume-preserving equations on the manifold from the cohomological…
We complete the list of normal forms for effective 3-forms with constant coefficients with respect to the natural action of symplectomorphisms in \mathbb{R}^6. We show that the 3-form which corresponds to the Special Lagrangian equation is…
Discrete Hamiltonian variational integrators are derived from Type II and Type III generating functions for symplectic maps, and in this paper we establish a variational error analysis result that relates the order of accuracy of the…
We give a new proof of the well-known result that the minimal volume vector fields on $\mathbb{S}^3(r)$ are the Hopf vector fields. Such proof relies again on calibration theory, arising here from a systematic point of view given by a…
Let $q:M\to M$ be a volume-preserving diffeomorphism of a smooth manifold $M$. We study the possibility to present $q$ as the Poincar\'e map, corresponding to a volume-preserving vector field on $\mathbb{T}\times M$, $\mathbb{T} =…
It is a classical theorem of Liouville that Hamiltonian systems preserve volume in phase space. Any symplectic Runge-Kutta method will respect this property for such systems, but it has been shown that no B-Series method can be volume…
We study the normal forms for incompressible flows and maps in the neighborhood of an equilibrium or fixed point with a triple eigenvalue. We prove that when a divergence free vector field in $\mathbb{R}^3$ has nilpotent linearization with…
We construct high order symmetric volume-preserving methods for the relativistic dynamics of a charged particle by the splitting technique with processing. Via expanding the phase space to include time $t$, we give a more general…
In this paper, we study the Lagrangian functions for a class of second-order differential systems arising from physics. For such systems, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Lagrangian functions. Based on the…
A procedure allowing for the construction of Lorentz invariant integrable models living in d+1 dimensional space-time and with an n dimensional target space is provided. Here, integrability is understood as the existence of the generalized…
We consider possible generation of singularities of a vector field transported by diffeomorphisms with derivatives of uniformly bounded determinants. A particular case of volume preserving diffeomrphism is the most important, since it has…
I construct the real counterparts (which I call Borel-Bott classes) of the R/Z classes constructed in "Characteristic classes in symplectic topology", to appear, in the cohomology of volume-preserving and symplectomorhisms of a compact…
We investigate lattice-counting problems associated with symplectic forms from the perspective of homogeneous dynamics. In the qualitative direction, we establish an analog of Margulis theorem for symplectic forms, proving density results…
We construct a resonant normal form for an area-preserving map near a generic resonant elliptic fixed point. The normal form is obtained by a simplification of a formal interpolating Hamiltonian. The resonant normal form is unique and…
