The Hamiltonian formulation of Mimetic Gravity is formulated. Although there are two more equations than those of general relativity, these are proved to be the constraint equation and the conservation of energy-momentum tensor. The Poisson…
We consider stochastic differential equations on the group of volume-preserving homeomorphisms of the sphere $S^d\,(d\geq 2)$. The diffusion part is given by the divergence free eigenvector fields of the Laplacian acting on $L^2$-vector…
Stable Hamiltonian structures generalize contact forms and define a volume-preserving vector field known as the Reeb vector field. We study two aspects of Reeb vector fields defined by stable Hamiltonian structures on 3-manifolds: on one…
A short review of special relativistic dynamics describing a particle acted upon by an arbitrary conservative external force is presented. If the mass of the particle is zero and the force is central then the equations of motion turn out to…

In this paper, we systematically construct two classes of structure-preserving schemes with arbitrary order of accuracy for canonical Hamiltonian systems. The one class is the symplectic scheme, which contains two new families of…
We develop Hamiltonian mechanics on Aristotelian manifolds, which lack local boost symmetry and admit absolute time and space structures. We construct invariant phase space dynamics, define free Hamiltonians, and establish a generalized…
We consider a closed surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ evolving by the volume-preserving Willmore flow and prove a lower bound for the existence time of smooth solutions. For spherical initial surfaces with Willmore energy below $8\pi$ we show long…

In this paper, we propose a method for the construction of locally conservative flux fields through a variation of the Generalized Multiscale Finite Element Method (GMsFEM). The flux values are obtained through the use of a Ritz formulation…
Hamiltonian systems are a classical example in the ergodic theory of flows with an invariant measure. In this matter, we present a brief introduction to measure theory and prove the Poincare recurrence theorem to present the conditions for…
The gradient flow of the Canham-Helfrich functional is tackled via the Generalized Minimizing Movements approach. We prove the existence of solutions in Wasserstein spaces of varifolds, as well as upper and lower diameter bounds. In the…
A port-Hamiltonian model for compressible Newtonian fluid dynamics is presented in entirely coordinate-independent geometric fashion. This is achieved by use of tensor-valued differential forms that allow to describe describe the…
In this work the existence of periodic solutions is studied for the Hamiltonian functions (Formula presented.) where the first term consist of a harmonic oscillator and the second term are homogeneous polynomials of degree 5 defined by two…
In this paper we discuss the relation between the unimodularity of a Lie algebroid $\tau_{A}: A\to Q$ and the existence of invariant volume forms for the hamiltonian dynamics on the dual bundle $A^{*}$. The results obtained in this…
Hamiltonian systems are known to conserve the Hamiltonian function, which describes the energy evolution over time. Obtaining a numerical spatio-temporal scheme that accurately preserves the discretized Hamiltonian function is often a…
In this paper we discussed the self-adjointness of the Maxwell's equations with variable coefficients $\epsilon$ and $\mu$. Three different Lagrangian are attained. By the Legendre transformation, a multisymplectic Bridge's (Hamilton) form…
We study a possibly integrable model of abelian gauge fields on a two-dimensional surface M, with volume form mu. It has the same phase space as ideal hydrodynamics, a coadjoint orbit of the volume-preserving diffeomorphism group of M,…
We present the Hamiltonian formalism for the Euler equation of symplectic fluids, introduce symplectic vorticity, and study related invariants. In particular, this allows one to extend D.Ebin's long-time existence result for geodesics on…
