In the development of the old ideas of Stueckelberg-Wheeler-Feynman on the "one-electron Universe", we study the purely algebraic dynamics of the ensemble of(two kinds of) identical point-like particles. These are represented by the(real…

Noether's theorem connects symmetries to invariants in continuous systems, however its extension to discrete systems has remained elusive. Recognizing the lowest-order finite difference as the foundation of local continuity, a viable method…

In this work, we address the numerical identification of entanglement in dynamical scenarios. To this end, we consider different programs based on the restriction of the evolution to the set of separable (i.e., non-entangled) states,…

In this paper we will study some interesting properties of modifications of the Euler-Poincar\'e equations when we add a special type of dissipative force, so that the equations of motion can be described using the metriplectic formalism.…

It is well known that Newton's method can have trouble converging if the initial guess is too far from the solution. Such a problem particularly occurs when this method is used to solve nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations…

The erroneous prediction of the speed of light in dispersive media has been looked upon historically as unequivocal proof that Newton's corpuscular theory is incorrect. Examination of his arguments shows that they were only directly…

Important nonlinear dynamics, such as those found in plasma and fluid systems, are typically hard to simulate on classical computers. Thus, if fault-tolerant quantum computers could efficiently solve such nonlinear problems, it would be a…
