In this survey article we will consider universal lower bounds on the volume of a Riemannian manifold, given in terms of the volume of lower dimensional objects (primarily the lengths of geodesics). By `universal' we mean without curvature…
In this paper we study a Hamiltonian function on the cotangent bundle of the space of Riemannian metrics on a 3-manifold $M$ and prove the orbits of the constrained Hamiltonian dynamical system correspond to $G_2$-manifolds foliated by…
Employing alternative spacetime volume-forms (generally-covariant integration measure densities) independent of the pertinent Riemannian spacetime metric have profound impact in general relativity. Although formally appearing as…
In order to perform quantum Hamiltonian dynamics minimizing localization effects, we introduce a quasi-one dimensional tight-binding model whose mean free path is smaller than the size of the sample. This one, in turn, is smaller than the…
We consider normal forms in `magnetic bottle' type Hamiltonians of the form $H=\frac{1}{2}(\rho^2_\rho+\omega^2_1\rho^2) +\frac{1}{2}p^2_z+hot$ (second frequency $\omega_2$ equal to zero in the lowest order). Our main results are: i) a…
Reconstructing the Hamiltonian of a quantum system is an essential task for characterizing and certifying quantum processors and simulators. Existing techniques either rely on projective measurements of the system before and after coherent…

A novel Hamiltonian description of the dynamics of a spherically symmetric, light-like, self-gravitating shell is presented. It is obtained via the systematic reduction of the phase space with respect to the Gauss-Codazzi constraints, model…
We present a full study of the 3-body problem in gravity in flat (2+1)-dimensional space-time, and in the nonrelativistic limit of small velocities. We provide an explicit form of the ADM Hamiltonian in a regular coordinate system and we…
There exists in General Relativity an unambiguous notion of Mass associated to asymptotically flat spacetimes known as the ADM mass. The standard expression for the same is a surface integral over spatial infinity of a linear combination of…
In general relativity, the Einstein equations provide spherically symmetric static spacetimes with dynamics defined as an evolution along the radial coordinate $r$. The geometrical sector becomes a one-dimensional mechanical system, with…

Working with a general class of linear Hamiltonian systems with at least one singular boundary condition, we show that renormalized oscillation results can be obtained in a natural way through consideration of the Maslov index associated…
We introduce a flow in the space of constant width bodies in three-dimensional Euclidean space that simultaneously increases the volume and decreases the circumradius of the shape as time increases. Starting from any initial constant width…
Averaged inhomogeneous cosmologies lie at the forefront of interest, since cosmological parameters like the rate of expansion or the mass density are to be considered as volume-averaged quantities and only these can be compared with…
Hamiltonian light-front field theory can be used to solve for hadron states in QCD. To this end, a method has been developed for systematic renormalization of Hamiltonian light-front field theories, with the hope of applying the method to…
