The efficient numerical solution of many kinetic models in plasma physics is impeded by the stiffness of these systems. Exponential integrators are attractive in this context as they remove the CFL condition induced by the linear part of…
We consider hydrodynamic chains in $(1+1)$ dimensions which are Hamiltonian with respect to the Kupershmidt-Manin Poisson bracket. These systems can be derived from single $(2+1)$ equations, here called hydrodynamic Vlasov equations, under…
The Poisson structure of a coupled system arising from a supersymmetric breaking of N=1 Super KdV equations is obtained. The supersymmetric breaking is implemented by introducing a Clifford algebra instead of a Grassmann algebra. The…

The Hamiltonian structure of the guiding-center Vlasov-Maxwell equations is presented in terms of a Hamiltonian functional and a guiding-center Vlasov-Maxwell bracket. The bracket, which is shown to satisfy the Jacobi identity exactly, is…
The specific geometry of a strip provides connections between solitons and solitonic vortices, which are vortices with a solitonic behaviour in the infinite direction of the strip. We show that there exist stationary solutions to the…
We analyse a reduced 1D Vlasov--Maxwell system introduced recently in the physical literature for studying laser-plasma interaction. This system can be seen as a standard Vlasov equation in which the field is split in two terms: an…
The gyrokinetic Vlasov-Maxwell equations are cast as an infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian system. The gyrokinetic Poisson bracket is remarkably simple and similar to the Morrison-Marsden-Weinstein bracket for the Vlasov-Maxwell equations. By…

A method to construct Hamiltonian theories for systems of both ordinary and partial differential equations is presented. The knowledge of a Lagrangian is not at all necessary to achieve the result. The only ingredients required for the…
The paper [1] by Crouseilles, Einkemmer, and Faou used an incorrect Poisson bracket for the Vlasov-Maxwell equations. If the correct Poisson bracket is used, the solution of one of the subsystems cannot be computed exactly in general. As a…
