The geometric approach to mechanics based on the Jacobi metric allows to easily construct natural mechanical systems which are integrable (actually separable) at a fixed value of the energy. The aim of the present paper is to investigate…

We consider the Cauchy problem for first order systems. Assuming that the set of the singular points of the characteristic variety is a smooth manifold and the characteristic values are real and semi-simple we introduce a new class which is…

We present a relativistic treatment of the problem of soft electromagnetic structure by the modified instant form of relativistic Hamiltonian dynamics. Our approach uses relativistic parametrization and so picks out the relativistic…

We study the dynamical behaviour of Hamiltonian flows defined on 4-dimensional compact symplectic manifolds. We find the existence of a C2-residual set of Hamiltonians for which every regular energy surface is either Anosov or it is in the…

We demonstrate that arbitrary time evolutions of many-body quantum systems can be reversed even in cases when only part of the Hamiltonian can be controlled. The reversed dynamics obtained via optimal control --contrary to standard…

We consider a strongly damped wave equation on compact manifolds, both with and without boundaries, and formulate the corresponding inverse problems. For closed manifolds, we prove that the metric can be uniquely determined, up to an…

We obtain an analytic solution for a three-parameter class of logarithmic potentials at zero energy. The potential terms are products of the inverse square and the inverse log to powers 2, 1 and 0. The configuration space is the…

It is shown that the dynamics of the growth of a two dimensional surface in a Laplacian field can be mapped onto Hamiltonian dynamics. The mapping is carried out in two stages: first the surface is conformally mapped onto the unit circle,…

Particle transport through an open, discrete 1-D channel against a mechanical or chemical bias is analyzed within a master equation approach. The channel, externally driven by time dependent site energies, allows multiple occupation due to…

An integrable Hamiltonian system presents monodromy if the action-angle variables cannot be defined globally. As a prototype of classical monodromy with azimuthal symmetry, we consider a linear molecule interacting with external fields and…

We present a new existence mechanism, based on symplectic topology, for orbits of Hamiltonian flows connecting a pair of disjoint subsets in the phase space. The method involves function theory on symplectic manifolds combined with rigidity…

Two questions on the topology of compact energy surfaces of natural two degrees of freedom Hamiltonian systems in a magnetic field are discussed. We show that the topology of this 3-manifold (if it is not a unit tangent bundle) is uniquely…

We introduce the notion of a real form of a Hamiltonian dynamical system in analogy with the notion of real forms for simple Lie algebras. This is done by restricting the complexified initial dynamical system to the fixed point set of a…

The {\it curvature} and the {\it reduced curvature} are basic differential invariants of the pair: (Hamiltonian system, Lagrange distribution) on the symplectic manifold. We show that negativity of the curvature implies that any bounded…

The dynamics of a three-dimensional Hamilton-Poisson system is closely related to its constants of motion, the energy or Hamiltonian function $H$ and a Casimir $C$ of the corresponding Lie algebra. The orbits of the system are included in…

We introduce and analyze a model for the transport of particles or energy in extended lattice systems. The dynamics of the model acts on a discrete phase space at discrete times but has nonetheless some of the characteristic properties of…

The decision problems of the existence of a Hamiltonian cycle or of a Hamiltonian path in a given graph, and of the existence of a truth assignment satisfying a given Boolean formula $C$, are well-known {\it NP}-complete problems. Here we…
