We show existence of relative periodic orbits (a.k.a. relative nonlinear normal modes) near relative equilibria of a symmetric Hamiltonian system under an appropriate assumption on the Hessian of the Hamiltonian. This gives a relative…
In this paper we produce a lower bound for the number of periodic orbits of certain Hamiltonian vector fields near Bott-nondegenerate symplectic critical submanifolds. This result is then related to the problem of finding closed orbits of…
In this paper, the Conley conjecture, which were recently proved by Franks and Handel \cite{FrHa} (for surfaces of positive genus), Hingston \cite{Hi} (for tori) and Ginzburg \cite{Gi} (for closed symplectically aspherical manifolds), is…
We show that $C^1$-generically for diffeomorphisms of manifolds of dimension $d\geq3$, a homoclinic class containing saddles of different indices has a residual subset where the orbit of any point has historic behavior.
Based on bond arguments, a Hamiltonian is introduced to describe the fundamental physics of the collective rotations of oxygen atoms in oxides. Values for the relevant material parameters are estimated for silica and Cu oxides.…
We consider families of Dirac operators on the unit interval which depend on parameters via boundary conditions. We study the associated eta forms and Maslov cocyles. With this simple example we show how previous results of…
This is a report for the author's talk in ICM-2018. Motivated by the formulas of Gross--Zagier and Waldspurger, we review conjectures and theorems on automorphic period integrals, special cycles on Shimura varieties, and their connection to…
Periodic orbit theory allows calculations of long time properties of chaotic systems from traces, dynamical zeta functions and spectral determinants of deterministic evolution operators, which are in turn evaluated in terms of periodic…
One can formulate the classical Kepler problem on the Heisenberg group, the simplest sub-Riemannian manifold. We take the sub-Riemannian Hamiltonian as our kinetic energy, and our potential is the fundamental solution to the Heisenberg…
In 2004 Vasiga and Shallit studied the number of periodic points of two particular discrete quadratic maps modulo prime numbers. They found the asymptotic behaviour of the sum of the number of periodic points for all primes less than some…
We use Moser's normal forms to study chaotic motion in two-degree hamiltonian systems near a saddle point. Besides being convergent, they provide a suitable description of the cylindrical topology of the chaotic flow in that vicinity. Both…
The case of motion of a generalized two-field gyrostat found by V.V.Sokolov and A.V.Tsiganov is known as a Liouville integrable Hamiltonian system with three degrees of freedom. We find a set of points at which the momentum map has rank 1.…
A tautological system, introduced in [16][17], arises as a regular holonomic system of partial differential equations that govern the period integrals of a family of complete intersections in a complex manifold $X$, equipped with a suitable…
While detailed information about the semiclassics for single-particle systems is available, much less is known about the connection between quantum and classical dynamics for many-body systems. As an example, we focus on spin chains which…
Phase-space features of the Wigner flow for generic one-dimensional systems with a Hamiltonian, $H^{W}(q,\,p)$, constrained by the $\partial ^2 H^{W} / \partial q \partial p = 0$ condition are analytically obtained in terms of Wigner…
The Hamiltonian flow of the standard metric Hamiltonian with respect to the twisted symplectic structure on the cotangent bundle describes the motion of a charged particle on the base. We prove that under certain natural hypotheses the…
We derive a trace formula for $\sum_n A_{nn}B_{nn}...\delta(E-E_n)$, where $A_{nn}$ is the diagonal matrix element of the operator $A$ in the energy basis of a chaotic system. The result takes the form of a smooth term plus periodic-orbit…
We derive an analytical trace formula for the level density of the two-dimensional elliptic billiard using an improved stationary phase method. The result is a continuous function of the deformation parameter (eccentricity) through all…
We address in this paper the notion of relative phase shift for mixed quantum systems. We study the Pancharatnam-Sjoeqvist phase shift for metaplectic isotopies acting on Gaussian mixed states. We complete and generalize previous results…
We prove that every sectional Anosov flow (or, equivalently, every sectional-hyperbolic attracting set of a flow) on a compact manifold has a periodic orbit. This extends the previous three-dimensional result obtained in [Existence of…
