We formulate and discuss a reduction theorem for Poisson pencils associated with a class of integrable systems, defined on bi-Hamiltonian manifolds, recently studied by Gel'fand and Zakharevich. The reduction procedure is suggested by the…
We apply Kahan's discretisation method to three classes of 2-dimensional quadratic vector fields with quadratic, resp cubic, resp quartic Hamiltonians. We show that the maps obtained in this way can be geometrically understood as the…
We develop a new, coordinate-free formulation of Hamiltonian mechanics on the dual of a Lie algebroid. Our approach uses a connection, rather than coordinates in a local trivialization, to obtain global expressions for the horizontal and…

We prove that any bi-Hamiltonian system $v = \left(\mathcal{A} + \lambda \mathcal{B}\right)dH_{\lambda}$ that is Hamiltonian with respect all Poisson brackets $\mathcal{A} + \lambda \mathcal{B}$ is locally bi-integrable in both the real…
A class of elliptic curves with associated Lax matrices is considered. A family of dynamical systems on e(3) parametrized by polynomial a with above Lax matrices are constructed. Five cases from the family are selected by the condition of…
We construct Poisson structures for Ermakov systems, using the Ermakov invariant as the Hamiltonian. Two classes of Poisson structures are obtained, one of them degenerate, in which case we derive the Casimir functions. In some situations,…
We introduce a family of compatible Poisson brackets on the space of $2\times 2$ polynomial matrices, which contains the reflection equation algebra bracket. Then we use it to derive a multi-Hamiltonian structure for a set of integrable…
In this paper, we present neural networks learning mechanical systems that are both symplectic (for instance particle mechanics) and non-symplectic (for instance rotating rigid body). Mechanical systems have Hamiltonian evolution, which…
In this paper we continue our analysis of the stationary flows of $M$ component, coupled KdV (cKdV) hierarchies and their modifications. We describe the general structure of the $t_1$ and $t_2$ flows, using the case $M=3$ as our main…
Three geometric formulations of the Hamiltonian structure of the macroscopic Maxwell equations are given: one in terms of the double de Rham complex, one in terms of L2 duality, and one utilizing an abstract notion of duality. The final of…
Given a Poisson structure (or, equivalently, a Hamiltonian operator) $P$, we show that its Lie derivative $L_{\tau}(P)$ along a vector field $\tau$ defines another Poisson structure, which is automatically compatible with $P$, if and only…
We construct two different incompatible Poisson pencils for the Toda lattice by using known variables of separation proposed by Moser and by Sklyanin.
We present twelve numerical methods for evaluation of objects and concepts from Poisson geometry. We describe how each method works with examples, and explain how it is executed in code. These include methods that evaluate Hamiltonian and…
We consider nonholonomic systems which symmetry groups consist of two subgroups one of which represents rotations about the axis of symmetry. After nonholonomic reduction by another subgroup the corresponding vector fields on partially…
Motivated by the problem of longitudinal data assimilation, e.g., in the registration of a sequence of images, we develop the higher-order framework for Lagrangian and Hamiltonian reduction by symmetry in geometric mechanics. In particular,…
Kontsevich constructed a map between `good' graph cocycles $\gamma$ and infinitesimal deformations of Poisson bivectors on affine manifolds, that is, Poisson cocycles in the second Lichnerowicz--Poisson cohomology. For the tetrahedral graph…
