In this paper, we first develop a mini-max theory of the action functional over the semi-infinite cycles via the chain level Floer homology theory and construct spectral invariants of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on arbitrary compact…

We prove an analog of Shilnikov Lemma for a normally hyperbolic symplectic critical manifold $M\subset H^{-1}(0)$ of a Hamiltonian system. Using this result, trajectories with small energy $H=\mu>0$ shadowing chains of homoclinic orbits to…

We study the dynamics of a pair of parametrically-driven coupled nonlinear mechanical resonators of the kind that is typically encountered in applications involving microelectromechanical and nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS & NEMS). We…

We give an upper bound for the number of functionally independent meromorphic first integrals that a discrete dynamical system generated by an analytic map $f$ can have in a neighborhood of one of its fixed points. This bound is obtained in…

Let $M$ be a finitely generated module on a local ring $R$ and $\F: M_0\subset M_1\subset...\subset M_t=M$ a filtration of submodules of $M$ such that $ d_o<d_1< ... <d_t=d$, where $d_i=\dim M_i$. This paper is concerned with a non-negative…

These notes were written during the 9th and 10th sessions of the subject Dynamical Systems II coursed at DTU (Denmark) during the Winter Semester 2015-2016, and later extended in February 2017. They aim to provide students with a…

We consider one-dimensional systems in the presence of a quasi-periodic perturbation, in the analytical setting, and study the problem of existence of quasi-periodic solutions which are resonant with the frequency vector of the…

We study non-autonomous conformal iterated function systems, with finite or countably infinite alphabet alike. These differ from the usual (autonomous) iterated function systems in that the contractions applied at each step in time are…

We study several aspects of the regular deformations of completely integrable systems. Namely, we prove the existence of a Hamiltonian normal form for these deformations and we show the necessary and sufficient conditions a perturbation has…

Let $K$ be a field, $A$ a standard graded $K$-algebra and $M$ a finitely generated graded $A$-module. Inspired by our previous works, we study the Hilbert depth of $h_M$, that is $$\operatorname{hdepth}(h_M)=\max\{d\;:\; \sum\limits_{j\leq…

Integrals of motion of a Hamiltonian system need not be commutative. The classical Mishchenko-Fomenko theorem enables one to quantize a noncommutative completely integrable Hamiltonian system around its invariant submanifold as an abelian…

We study four particular 3-dimensional natural Hamiltonian systems defined in conformally Euclidean spaces. We prove their superintegrability and we obtain, in the four cases, the maximal number of functionally independent integrals of…

We study perturbations of diffeomorphisms that have a saddle connection between a pair of normally hyperbolic invariant manifolds. We develop a first-order deformation calculus for invariant manifolds and show that a generalized Melnikov…

We consider the 3D Mikhalev system, $$ u_t=w_x, \quad u_y= w_t-u w_x+w u_x, $$ which has first appeared in the context of KdV-type hierarchies. Under the reduction $w=f(u)$, one obtains a pair of commuting first-order equations, $$…

For an algebraic number $\alpha$ we denote by $M(\alpha)$ the Mahler measure of $\alpha$. As $M(\alpha)$ is again an algebraic number (indeed, an algebraic integer), $M(\cdot)$ is a self-map on $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, and therefore defines…

Given a volume preserving dynamical system with non-compact phase space, one is sometimes interested in special subsets of its wandering set. One example from celestial mechanics is the set of initial values leading to collision. Another…

We study piecewise-smooth systems with three zones, $\dot{z} = f_i(z)$, $i = 1,2,3,$ whose discontinuity set $\Sigma$ consists either of a pair of parallel lines or a pair of circles tangent to each other internally or externally. Each…

We argue that an infinite circumference limit can be obtained in 2-dimensional conformal field theory by adopting $L_0-(L_1+L_{-1})/2$ as a Hamiltonian instead of $L_0$. The theory obtained has a circumference of infinite length and hence…

We construct a Gelfand-Zeitlin system on a one-parameter family of $G_2$ coadjoint orbits that are multiplicity-free Hamiltonian $SU(3)$-spaces. Using this system we prove a lower bound for the Gromov width of these orbits. This lower bound…

Consider the action of a connected complex reductive group on a finite-dimensional vector space. A fundamental result in invariant theory states that the orbit closure of a vector v is separated from the origin if and only if some…
