A Lagrangian multiform structure is established for a generalisation of the Darboux system describing orthogonal curvilinear coordinate systems. It has been shown in the past that this system of coupled PDEs is in fact an encoding of the…
Consider briefly the equations of fluid dynamics-they describe the enormous wealth of detail in all the interacting physical elements of a fluid flow-whereas in applications we want to deal with a description of just that which is…
We investigate curved flats in Lie sphere geometry. We show that in this setting curved flats are in one-to-one correspondence with pairs of Demoulin families of Lie applicable surfaces related by Darboux transformation.
Darboux developed an ingenious algebraic mechanism to construct infinite chains of ''integrable'' second-order differential equations as well as their solutions. After a surprisingly long time, Darboux's results were rediscovered and…
Quantum systems are often described by parameter-dependent Hamiltonians. Points in parameter space where two levels are degenerate can carry a topological charge. Here we theoretically study an interacting two-spin system where the…
In this work we introduce a category $LDP_d$ of discrete-time dynamical systems, that we call discrete Lagrange--D'Alembert--Poincar\'e systems, and study some of its elementary properties. Examples of objects of $LDP_d$ are nonholonomic…
On the base of Lie algebraic and differential geometry methods, a wide class of multidimensional nonlinear integrable systems is obtained, and the integration scheme for such equations is proposed.
We describe a procedure for generating families of cyclic cubic fields with explicit fundamental units. This method generates all known families and gives new ones.
We present results for 2D and 4D systems on lattices with topology homotopic to the surface of a (hyper) sphere $S^2$ or $S^4$. Finite size scaling is studied in situations with phase transitions of first and second order type. The Ising…
In this paper we present a far-reaching generalization of E. Vessiot's analysis of the Darboux integrable partial differential equations in one dependent and two independent variables. Our approach provides new insights into this classical…
In this Thesis we develop the geometric formulations for higher-order autonomous and non-autonomous dynamical systems, and second-order field theories. In all cases, the physical information of the system is given in terms of a Lagrangian…
Dirac structures and Morse families are used to obtain a geometric formalism that unifies most of the scenarios in mechanics (constrained calculus, nonholonomic systems, optimal control theory, higher-order mechanics, etc.), as the examples…
We prove a classification theorem for conformal maps with respect to the control distance generated by a system of diagonal vector fields. It turns out that all such maps can be obtained as compositions of suitable dilations, inversions and…
We provide an elementary derivation of an orthogonal coordinate system for boundary layers around evolving smooth surfaces and curves based on the signed-distance function. We go beyond previous works on the signed-distance function and…
We suggest a construction that, given a trajectorial diffeomorphism between two Hamiltonian systems, produces integrals of them. As the main example we treat geodesic equivalence of metrics. We show that the existence of a non-trivially…
We present a hierarchy of discrete systems whose first members are the lattice modified Korteweg-de Vries equation, and the lattice modified Boussinesq equation. The N-th member in the hierarchy is an N-component system defined on an…
Discrete analogs of the Darboux-Egoroff metrics are considered. It is shown that the corresponding lattices in the Euclidean space are described by discrete analogs of the Lame equations. It is proved that up to a gauge transformation these…
This paper presents new results on the limit cycles of a Li\'enard system with symmetry allowing for discontinuity. Our results generalize and improve the results in [33,34]. The results in [34] are only valid for the smooth system. We…
This paper extends sliding-mode control theory to nonlinear systems evolving on smooth manifolds. Building on differential geometric methods, we reformulate Filippov's notion of solutions, characterize well-defined vector fields on quotient…
General isometries of cyclic codes, including multipliers and translations, are introduced; and isometrically self-dual cyclic codes are defined. In terms of Type-I duadic splittings given by multipliers and translations, a necessary and…
