In general, a system of differential equations is integrable if there exist `sufficiently many' first integrals (FIs) so that its solution can be found by means of quadratures. Therefore, the determination of the FIs is an important issue…
An autonomous dynamical system is described by a system of second order differential equations whose solution gives the trajectories of the system. The solution is facilitated by the use of first integrals (FIs) that are used to reduce the…
The determination of the first integrals (FIs) of a dynamical system and the subsequent assessment of their integrability or superintegrability in a systematic way is still an open subject. One method which has been developed along these…
We develop a method, based on Darboux' and Liouville's works, to find first integrals and/or invariant manifolds for a physically relevant class of dynamical systems, without making any assumption on these elements' form. We apply it to…

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…

It is proposed that the mathematical models for any physical systems that are based in first principles, such as conservation laws or balance principles, have some common elements, namely, a space of kinematical states, a space of dynamical…

There are two main approaches to non-equlibrium statistical mechanics: one using stochastic processes and the other using dynamical systems. To model the dynamics during inflation one usually adopts a stochastic description, which is known…
Every second order system of autonomous differential equations can be described by an autonomous holonomic dynamical system with a Lagrangian part, an effective potential and a set of generalized forces. The kinematic part of the Lagrangian…
In this work we study the integrability of a family of nonlinear oscillators. Dynamical systems from this family appear in different applications from mechanics to chemistry. We propose an approach for finding first integrals and…
Induced dynamics is defined as dynamics of real zeros with respect to $x$ of equation $f(q_1-x,\ldots,q_N-x,p_1,\ldots,p_N)=0$, where $f$ is a function, and $q_i$ and $p_j$ are canonical variables obeying some (free) evolution. Identifying…
We examine "dynamical similarities" in the Lagrangian framework. These are symmetries of an intrinsically determined physical system under which observables remain unaffected, but the extraneous information is changed. We establish three…
We propose a novel approach for performing dynamical system identification, based upon the comparison of simulated and observed physical invariant measures. While standard methods adopt a Lagrangian perspective by directly treating…
We reconsider both the global and local stability of solutions of continuously evolving dynamical systems from a geometric perspective. We clarify that an unambiguous definition of stability generally requires the choice of additional…
Integrable dynamical systems play an important role in many areas of science, including accelerator and plasma physics. An integrable dynamical system with $n$ degrees of freedom (DOF) possesses $n$ nontrivial integrals of motion, and can…
