We propose two types of stochastic extensions of nonholonomic constraints for mechanical systems. Our approach relies on a stochastic extension of the Lagrange-d'Alembert framework. We consider in details the case of invariant nonholonomic…
We consider learning nonholonomic dynamical systems while discovering the constraints, and describe in detail the case of the rolling disk. A nonholonomic system is a system subject to nonholonomic constraints. Unlike holonomic constraints,…
This paper introduces a method for constructing pure algebroids, dull algebroids, and Lie algebroids. The construction relies on what we deffned as n-systems on vector bundles, and we provide explicit computations for all resulting…
In this paper, we construct Hamilton-Jacobi equations for a great variety of mechanical systems (nonholonomic systems subjected to linear or affine constraints, dissipative systems subjected to external forces, time-dependent mechanical…
In this paper we discuss variational constrained mechanics (vakonomic mechanics) on Lie affgebroids. We obtain the dynamical equations and the aff-Poisson bracket associated with a vakonomic system on a Lie affgebroid ${\mathcal A}$. We…

In this Thesis we develop the geometric formulations for higher-order autonomous and non-autonomous dynamical systems, and second-order field theories. In all cases, the physical information of the system is given in terms of a Lagrangian…
This paper studies hamiltonization of nonholonomic systems using geometric tools. By making use of symmetries and suitable first integrals of the system, we explicitly define a global 2-form for which the gauge transformed nonholonomic…
We extend the notion of connection in order to be able to study singular geometric structures, namely, we consider a notion of connection on a Lie algebroid which is a natural extension of the usual concept of connection. Using connections,…
It is shown that all 3-body quantal integrable systems that emerge in the Hamiltonian reduction method possess the same hidden algebraic structure. All of them are given by a second degree polynomial in generators of an infinite-dimensional…
We introduce Riemannian Lie algebroids as a generalization of Riemannian manifolds and we show that most of the classical tools and results known in Riemannian geometry can be stated in this setting. We give also some new results on the…
A set of linear second-order differential equations is converted into a semigroup, whose algebraic structure is used to generate many novel equations. Two independent methods that can be used to derive the equations of the semigroup are…
We develop a Lagrangian approach for constructing a symplectic structure for singular systems. It gives a simple and unified framework for understanding the origin of the pathologies that appear in the Dirac-Bergmann formalism, and offers a…
As we said in our previous work [4], the main idea of our research is to introduce a class of Lie groupoids by means of co-adjoint representation of a Lie groupoid on its isotropy Lie algebroid, which we called coadjoint Lie groupoids. In…
Vakonomic mechanics has been proposed as a possible description of the dynamics of systems subject to nonholonomic constraints. The aim of the present work is to show that for an important physical system the motion brought about by…
The evolution of a Lagrangian mechanical system is variational. Likewise, when dealing with a hybrid Lagrangian system (a system with discontinuous impacts), the impacts can also be described by variations. These variational impacts are…
The Lie algebroids are generalization of the Lie algebras. They arise, in particular, as a mathematical tool in investigations of dynamical systems with the first class constraints. Here we consider canonical symmetries of Hamiltonian…
