For a one-dimensional conservative systems with position depending mass, one deduces consistently a constant of motion, a Lagrangian, and a Hamiltonian for the non relativistic case. With these functions, one shows the trajectories on the…
This paper formulates a variational approach for treating observational uncertainty and/or computational model errors as stochastic transport in dynamical systems governed by action principles under nonholonomic constraints. For this…
We give a "direct" coupling proof of strict monotonicity of the speed for 1-dimensional multi-excited random walks with positive speed. This reproves (and extends) a recent result of Peterson without using branching processes.
In this paper, we introduce the concept of random time changes in dynamical systems. The sub- ordination principle may be applied to study the long time behavior of the random time systems. We show, under certain assumptions on the class of…
We study the drift of suspended micro-particles in a viscous liquid pumped back and forth through a periodic lattice of pores (drift ratchet). In order to explain the particle drift observed in such an experiment, we present an…
State-of-the-art approaches to optimal control use smooth approximations of value and policy functions and gradient-based algorithms for improving approximator parameters. Unfortunately, we show that value and policy functions that arise in…
We have numerically studied the trapping problem in a two-dimensional lattice where particles are continuously generated. We have introduced interaction between particles and directionality of their movement. This model presents a critical…
Piecewise Translations is a class of dynamical systems which arises from some applications in computer science, machine learning, and electrical engineering. In dimension 1 it can also be viewed as a non-invertible generalization of…
A basic idea in optimal transport is that optimizers can be characterized through a geometric property of their support sets called cyclical monotonicity. In recent years, similar "monotonicity principles" have found applications in other…
The structural invariant subspaces of the discrete-time singular Hamiltonian system are used in 1] to give an analytic nonrecursive expression of all the admissible trajectories. A deeper insight into the features of these subspaces,…
We prove strong existence and uniqueness for a reflection process $X$ in a smooth, bounded domain $D$ that behaves like obliquely-reflected-Brownian-motion, except that the direction of reflection depends on a (spin) parameter $S$, which…
In this minireview we present the main results regarding the transport properties of stochastic movement with relocations to known positions. To do so, we formulate the problem in a general manner to see several cases extensively studied…
The notion of monodromy was introduced by J. J. Duistermaat as the first obstruction to the existence of global action coordinates in integrable Hamiltonian systems. This invariant was extensively studied since then and was shown to be…
In this paper we study holomorphic properties of infinite dimensional spin factors. Among the infinite dimensional Banach spaces with homogeneous open unit balls, we show that the spin factors are natural outlier spaces in which to ask the…
We introduce and develop a slave-spin mean-field technique for describing a generic interacting two level systems under time-dependent drivings, where an auxiliary S=1 spin is added to describe the localized character of the electrons. We…
Robotic tasks often require motions with complex geometric structures. We present an approach to learn such motions from a limited number of human demonstrations by exploiting the regularity properties of human motions e.g. stability,…
We investigate a shadowing property which appears naturally in the study of piecewise monotonic maps of the interval. It turns out to be a weak form of the rank one property, a well-known notion in abstract ergodic theory. We show that this…
Azimuthal instabilities occur in rotationally symmetric systems, either as spinning (rotating) waves or standing waves. We make use of a novel ansatz to derive a differential equation characterizing the state of these instabilities in terms…
We study long-range interacting systems driven by external stochastic forces that act collectively on all the particles constituting the system. Such a scenario is frequently encountered in the context of plasmas, self-gravitating systems,…
The equations of motion of a mechanical system subjected to nonholonomic linear constraints can be formulated in terms of a linear almost Poisson structure in a vector bundle. We study the existence of invariant measures for the system in…
