We survey recent work done on the values at integer points of irrational inhomogeneous quadratic forms, namely, inhomogeneous analogues of the famous Oppenheim conjecture. We also prove that the set of such forms in two variables whose set…
We give a revised version of Schmidt's treatment of forms in many variables, which allows us to prove a Hasse principle under more lenient conditions on the number of variables than what had previously been thought possible with these…
Normal forms allow the use of a restricted class of coordinate transformations (typically homogeneous polynomials) to put the bifurcations found in nonlinear dynamical systems into a few standard forms. We investigate here the consequences…
It is shown that the presence of Lie-point-symmetries of (non-Hamiltonian) dynamical systems can ensure the convergence of the coordinate transformations which take the dynamical sytem (or vector field) into Poincar\'e-Dulac normal form.
The formal solution of a general stargenvalue equation is presented, its properties studied and a geometrical interpretation given in terms of star-hypersurfaces in quantum phase space. Our approach deals with discrete and continuous…
This survey paper is not a complete reference guide to number-theoretical applications of ergodic theory. Instead, it considers an approach to a class of problems involving Diophantine properties of $n$-tuples of real numbers, namely,…
It is shown that, under suitable conditions, involving in particular the existence of analytic constants of motion, the presence of Lie point symmetries can ensure the convergence of the transformation taking a vector field (or dynamical…
We prove effective versions of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic inhomogeneous forms in the S-arithmetic setting. We prove an effective result for fixed rational shifts and generic forms and we also prove a result where both the quadratic…
We investigate lattice-counting problems associated with symplectic forms from the perspective of homogeneous dynamics. In the qualitative direction, we establish an analog of Margulis theorem for symplectic forms, proving density results…
Definition of generalized normal form for a system of ODEs corresponding to an infinitesimal symplectic or contact transformation near a singular point, with an arbitrary polynomial unperturbed part, and a method of its finding are…
We discuss algebraic and combinatorial aspects of the Hamiltonian normal form theory. The main objective is to describe the normal form near a singular point purely in terms of the original Hamiltonian, avoiding the normalization procedure.…
We count integer points on bihomogeneous varieties using the Hardy-Littlewood method. The main novelty lies in using the structure of bihomogeneous equations to obtain asymptotics in generically fewer variables than would be necessary in…
We unravel a deep connection between limits of real numbers and limits in category theory. Using a new variant of the classical characterisation of the real numbers, we characterise the category of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces and…
We show how to use extended word series in the reduction of continuous and discrete dynamical systems to normal form and in the computation of formal invariants of motion in Hamiltonian systems. The manipulations required involve complex…
We establish effective versions of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic inhomogeneous quadratic forms. We prove such results for fixed shift vectors and generic quadratic forms. When the shift is rational we prove a counting result which…
We investigate one-dimensional families of diagonal forms, considering the evolution of the asymptotic formula and error term. We then discuss properties of the average asymptotic formula obtained. The subsequent second moment analysis…
Let $S = \{ \infty \} \cup S_f$ be a finite set of places of $\mathbb{Q}$. Using homogeneous dynamics, we establish two new quantitative and explicit results about integral quadratic forms in three or more variables: The first is a…
In this paper we adapt the method of [P. H. Baptistelli, M. Manoel and I. O. Zeli. Normal form theory for reversible equivariant vector fields. Bull. Braz. Math. Soc., New Series 47 (2016), no. 3, 935-954] to obtain normal forms of a class…
The results of the renormalization group are commonly advertised as the existence of power law singularities near critical points. The classic predictions are often violated and logarithmic and exponential corrections are treated on a…
The discovery of physical laws consistent with empirical observations lies at the heart of (applied) science and engineering. These laws typically take the form of nonlinear differential equations depending on parameters, dynamical systems…
