This paper aims to illustrate the applications of resonant Hamiltonian normal forms to some problems of galactic dynamics. We detail the construction of the 1:1 resonant normal form corresponding to a wide class of potentials with…
It is well known that the Lorenz system has $Z_2$-symmetry. Using introducted in math.DS/0105147 topological covering-coloring a new representation for the Lorenz system is obtained. Deleting coloring leads to the factorized Lorenz system…
We consider a third order non-autonomous ODE that arises as a model of fluid accumulation in a two dimensional thin-film flow driven by surface tension and gravity. With the appropriate matching conditions, the equation describes the inner…
Hodographs for the Kepler problem are circles. This fact, known since almost two centuries ago, still provides the simplest path to derive the Kepler first law. Through Feynman `lost lecture', this derivation has now reached to a wider…
Let $G:= (C^*)^k\times SL_2(C)$ act linearly on a vector space or its projectivisation. We obtain an effective criterion to detect whether a number of orbits in an orbit-closure is finite or not.
In Part I of this paper we discussed new methods for the numerical continuation of point-to-cycle connecting orbits in 3-dimensional autonomous ODE's using projection boundary conditions. In this second part we extend the method to the…
The nonlinear stability domain of Lagrange's celebrated 1772 solution of a three-body problem is obtained numerically as a function of the masses of the bodies and the common eccentricity of their Keplerian orbits. This domain shows that…
The paper discusses the problem of the Lorentz contraction in accelerated systems, in the context of the special theory of relativity. Equal proper accelerations along different world lines are considered, showing the differences arising…
We prove that any vector field on a three-dimensional compact manifold can be approximated in the C1-topology by one which is singular hyperbolic or by one which exhibits a homoclinic tangency associated to a regular hyperbolic periodic…
The paper is concerned with a nonlinear system of partial differential equations with parameters and the random external force. This system describes the two-layer quasi-solenoidal Lorenz model for a baroclinic atmosphere on a rotating…
Chaotic dynamics can be effectively studied by continuation from an anti-integrable limit. We use this limit to assign global symbols to orbits and use continuation from the limit to study their bifurcations. We find a bound on the…
The restricted circular three-body problem is considered for the following parameter values $C=3.03$, $\mu=0.0009537$ - the values for {\em Oterma} comet in the Sun-Jupiter system. We present a computer assisted proof of an existence of…
We give a method to determine relative periodic orbits in point vortex systems: it consists mainly into perform a symplectic reduction on a fixed point submanifold in order to obtain a two-dimensional reduced phase space. The method is…
The existence of multi-pulse solutions near orbit-flip bifurcations of a primary single-humped pulse is shown in reversible, conservative, singularly perturbed vector fields. Similar to the non-singular case, the sign of a geometric…
We consider 2D Maxwell-Lorentz equations with extended charged rotating particle. The system admits solitons which are solutions corresponding to a particle moving with a constant velocity and rotating with a constant angular velocity. Our…
We consider a Klein-Gordon equation (KG) on a Riemannian compact surface, for which the flow lets invariant the two dimensional space the solutions independent of the space variable. It turns out that in this invariant space, there is a…
We study the global structure of Lorentzian manifolds with partial sectional curvature bounds. In particular, we prove completeness theorems for homogeneous and isotropic cosmologies as well as static spherically symmetric spacetimes. The…
