The extended Hamilton's Principle and other methods proposed to handle non-holonomic constraints are considered. They dont agree with each other. By looking at its consistency with D'Alembert's principle for linear non-holonomic…
In recent work, Baird et al. have generalized the definition of the Maslov index to paths of Grassmannian subspaces that are not necessarily contained in the Lagrangian Grassmannian [T. J. Baird, P. Cornwell, G. Cox, C. Jones, and R.…
In this paper we are concerned with the stability of equilibrium solutions of periodic Hamiltonian systems with one degree of freedom in the case of degeneracy, which means that the characteristic exponents of the linearized system have…
The Noether theorem connecting symmetries and conservation laws can be applied directly in a Hamiltonian framework without using any intermediate Lagrangian formulation. This requires a careful discussion about the invariance of the…
Working with a general class of linear Hamiltonian systems on $[0, 1]$, we show that renormalized oscillation results can be obtained in a natural way through consideration of the Maslov index associated with appropriately chosen paths of…
Let M be a weakly monotone symplectic manifold, and H be a time-dependent Hamiltonian; we assume that the periodic orbits of the corresponding time-dependent Hamiltonian vector field are non-degenerate. We construct a refined version of the…
We study regularity of bound states pertaining to embedded eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator $H$, with respect to an auxiliary operator $A$ that is conjugate to $H$ in the sense of Mourre. We work within the framework of singular…
We study K-theory classes of Hamiltonian loop group spaces represented by admissible Fredholm complexes. We prove various equivariant index formulae in this context. In a sequel to this article we show that, when specialized to a family of…
We show that the measure of maximal entropy of every complex H\'enon map is exponentially mixing of all orders for H\''older observables. As a consequence, the Central Limit Theorem holds for all H\''older observables.
Normal and composition series of groups enumerated by ordinal numbers are studied. The Jordan-Holder theorem for them is proved.
We study asymmetric regular types. If $\frak p$ is regular and $A$-asymmetric then there exists a strict order such that Morley sequences in $\frak p$ over $A$ are strictly increasing (we allow Morley sequences to be indexed by elements of…
It is known that a linear system with a system matrix A constitutes a Hamiltonian system with a quadratic Hamiltonian if and only if A is a Hamiltonian matrix. This provides a straightforward method to verify whether a linear system is…
In this paper, we calculate H\"ormander index in the finite-dimensional case. Then we use the result to give some iteration inequalities, and prove almost existence of mean indices for given complete autonomous Hamiltonian system on compact…
A central limit theorem for arrays of symmetric row-wise exchangeable random variables is presented. The result is valid for finite and infinite extendable and non-extendable sequences. Unlike most reported versions of the central limit…
A basic problem in the theory of partially ordered vector spaces is to characterise those cones on which every order-isomorphism is linear. We show that this is the case for every Archimedean cone that equals the inf-sup hull of the sum of…
Restriction is a natural quasi-order on $d$-way tensors. We establish a remarkable aspect of this quasi-order in the case of tensors over a fixed finite field -- namely, that it is a well-quasi-order: it admits no infinite antichains and no…
We develop an index theory for variational problems on noncompact quantum graphs. The main results are a spectral flow formula, relating the net change of eigenvalues to the Maslov index of boundary data, and a Morse index theorem, equating…
For Hamiltonian systems with degeneracy of any higher order, we study the persistence of resonant invariant tori, which as some lower-dimensional invariant tori might be elliptic, hyperbolic or of mixed types. Hence we prove a quasiperiodic…
We verify a confluence result for the rewriting calculus of the linear category introduced in our previous paper. Together with the termination result proved therein, the generalized coherence theorem for linear category is established.…
We prove that generic quantum local Hamiltonians are gapless. In fact, we prove that there is a continuous density of states above the ground state. The Hamiltonian can be on a lattice in any spatial dimension or on a graph with a bounded…
