We study the motion of a particle in a 3-dimensional lattice in the presence of a Coulomb potential, but we demonstrate semiclassicaly that the trajectories will always remain in a plane which can be taken as a rectangular lattice. The…
We show that under some appropriate assumptions, every weak solution (e.g. energetic solution) to a given rate-independent system is of class SBV, or has finite jumps, or is even piecewise $C^1$. Our assumption is essentially imposed on the…
It is known that, if a point in $R^n$ is driven by a bounded below potential $V$, whose gradient is always in a closed convex cone which contains no lines, then the velocity has a finite limit as time goes to $+\infty$. The components of…
We consider the problem of learning an interpretable potential energy function from a Hamiltonian system's trajectories. We address this problem for classical, separable Hamiltonian systems. Our approach first constructs a neural network…
Modeling of a wide class of physical phenomena, such as crystal growth and flame propagation, leads to tracking fronts moving with curvature-dependent speed. When the speed is the curvature this leads to one of the classical degenerate…
We establish lower semi-continuity and strict convexity of the energy functionals for a large class of vector equilibrium problems in logarithmic potential theory. This in particular implies the existence and uniqueness of a minimizer for…
This is a note on the graphs of two smooth real-valued functions in the plane with no intersection and the natural map onto the region surrounded by them with the canonical projection to the line composed, yielding its Reeb space. The Reeb…
We study the question whether for a natural Hamiltonian system on a two-dimensional compact configuration manifold, a single trajectory of sufficiently high energy is almost surely enough to reconstruct a real analytic potential.
We introduce a conjecture that we call the {\it Two Hyperplane Conjecture}, saying that an isoperimetric surface that divides a convex body in half by volume is trapped between parallel hyperplanes. The conjecture is motivated by an…
An analytic reversible Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom is studied in a neighborhood of its symmetric heteroclinic connection made up of a symmetric saddle-center, a symmetric orientable saddle periodic orbit lying in the same…
Symplectic mappings are discrete-time analogs of Hamiltonian systems. They appear in many areas of physics, including, for example, accelerators, plasma, and fluids. Integrable mappings, a subclass of symplectic mappings, are equivalent to…
Let $X$ be a Hamiltonian vector field defined on a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, $g$ a nowhere vanishing smooth function defined on an open dense subset $M^0$ of $M$. We will say that the vector field $Y = gX$ is conformally…
For a continuous map $f$ on a compact metric space we study the geometry and entropy of the generalized rotation set $\R(\Phi)$. Here $\Phi=(\phi_1,...,\phi_m)$ is a $m$-dimensional continuous potential and $\R(\Phi)$ is the set of all…
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce a new class of Hamiltonian scattering systems of the cone potential type that can be integrated via the asymptotic velocity. For a large subclass, the asymptotic data of the trajectories define…
We prove the existence of at least $cl(M)$ periodic orbits for certain time dependant Hamiltonian systems on the cotangent bundle of an arbitrary compact manifold $M$. These Hamiltonians are not necessarily convex but they satisfy a certain…
To solve the quantum-mechanical problem the procedure of mapping onto linear space $W$ of generators of the (sub)group violated by given classical trajectory is formulated. The formalism is illustrated by the plane H-atom model. The problem…
It is established existence, multiplicity and asymptotic behavior of positive solutions for a quasilinear elliptic problem driven by the $\Phi$-Laplacian operator. One of these solutions is obtained as ground state solution by applying the…
This is (mainly) a survey of recent results on the problem of the existence of infinitely many periodic orbits for Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms and Reeb flows. We focus on the Conley conjecture, proved for a broad class of closed symplectic…
Trajectories in logarithmic potentials are investigated by taking as example the motion of an electron within a cylindrical capacitor. The solution of the equation of motion in plane polar coordinates, (r,{\phi}) is attained by forming a…
Nonintegrable dynamical systems have complex structures in their phase space. Motion of a test charged particle in a dipole magnetic field can be reduced to a 2 degree-of-freedom (2 d.o.f.) nonintegrable Hamiltonian system. We carried out a…
