We introduce new invariants associated to collections of compact subsets of a symplectic manifold. They are defined through an elementary-looking variational problem involving Poisson brackets. The proof of the non-triviality of these…

Singular theories, characterised by the presence of degeneracies in their Lagrangian or Hamiltonian descriptions, require the systematic implementation of constraints in order to obtain well-defined dynamics. While the symplectic framework…

In this paper, we propose a novel algebraic and geometric description for the dissipative dynamics. Our formulation bears some similarity to the Poisson structure for non-dissipative systems. We develop a canonical description for…

We give insight in the structure of port-Hamiltonian systems as control systems in between two closed Hamiltonian systems. Using the language of category theory, we identify systems with their behavioural representation and view a…

We study the relation between a given set of equations of motion in configuration space and a Poisson bracket. A Poisson structure is consistent with the equations of motion if the symplectic form satisfy some consistency conditions. When…
