Hamiltonian systems are differential equations which describe systems in classical mechanics, plasma physics, and sampling problems. They exhibit many structural properties, such as a lack of attractors and the presence of conservation…
We split the generic conformal mechanical system into a "radial" and an "angular" part, where the latter is defined as the Hamiltonian system on the orbit of the conformal group, with the Casimir function in the role of the Hamiltonian. We…
We develop a geometric framework for the exact integration of Hamiltonian systems based on triangular closure relations among a finite family of functions. Unlike Liouville-Arnold integrability and its noncommutative generalizations, the…
In this article we review the Duistermaat-Heckman integration formula and the ensuing equivariant cohomology structure, in the finite dimensional case. In particular, we discuss the connection between equivariant cohomology and classical…

We propose a gravity dual description of the path-integral optimization in conformal field theories arXiv:1703.00456, using Hartle-Hawking wave functions in anti-de Sitter spacetimes. We show that the maximization of the Hartle-Hawking wave…
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…
In this paper we consider a generalized classical mechanics with fractional derivatives. The generalization is based on the time-clock randomization of momenta and coordinates taken from the conventional phase space. The fractional…
We study equivariant localization formulas for phase space path integrals when the phase space is a multiply connected compact Riemann surface. We consider the Hamiltonian systems to which the localization formulas are applicable and show…
A complete classification of 2D superintegrable systems on two-dimensional conformally flat spaces has been performed over the years and 58 models, divided into 12 equivalence classes, have been obtained. We will re-examine two…
We consider supersymmetrization of Hamiltonian dynamics via antibrackets for systems whose Hamiltonian generates an isometry of the phase space. We find that the models are closely related to the supersymmetric non-linear $\sigma$-model. We…
We analyze the dynamical equations obeyed by a classical system with position-dependent mass. It is shown that there is a non-conservative force quadratic in the velocity associated to the variable mass. We construct the Lagrangian and the…
It is noted that the Schrodinger equation with any self-adjoint Hamiltonian is unitary equivalent to a set of non-interacting classical harmonic oscillators and in this sense any quantum dynamics is completely integrable. Higher order…
An infinite family of quasi-maximally superintegrable Hamiltonians with a common set of (2N-3) integrals of the motion is introduced. The integrability properties of all these Hamiltonians are shown to be a consequence of a hidden…
In this paper, we apply the geometric Hamilton--Jacobi theory to obtain solutions of Hamiltonian systems in Classical Mechanics, that are either compatible with a cosymplectic or a contact structure. As it is well known, the first structure…
We suggest a numerical integration procedure for solving the equations of motion of certain classical spin systems which preserves the underlying symplectic structure of the phase space. Such symplectic integrators have been successfully…
We investigate the classical limit of non-Hermitian quantum dynamics arising from a coherent state approximation, and show that the resulting classical phase space dynamics can be described by generalised "canonical" equations of motion,…
In this paper we propose a new supersymmetric extension of conformal mechanics. The Grassmannian variables that we introduce are the basis of the forms and of the vector-fields built over the symplectic space of the original system. Our…
Although the post-Newtonian Lagrangian formalism is widely used in relativistic dynamical and statistical studies of test bodies moving around arbitrary mass distributions, the corresponding general Hamiltonian formalism is still relatively…
In this paper we show how the well-know local symmetries of Lagrangeans systems, and in particular the diffeomorphism invariance, emerge in the Hamiltonian formulation. We show that only the constraints which are linear in the momenta…
