Recently, Galley [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 110}, 174301 (2013)] proposed an initial value problem formulation of Hamilton's principle applied to non-conservative systems. Here, we explore this formulation for complex partial differential…
We present a formalism for Newtonian multi-fluid hydrodynamics derived from an unconstrained variational principle. This approach provides a natural way of obtaining the general equations of motion for a wide range of hydrodynamic systems…
The Lagrangian, multi-dimensional, ideal, compressible gasdynamic equations are written in a multi-symplectic form, in which the Lagrangian fluid labels, $m^i$ (the Lagrangian mass coordinates) and time $t$ are the independent variables,…
We identify a symplectic potential for general relativity in tetrad and connection variables that is fully gauge-invariant, using the freedom to add surface terms. When torsion vanishes, it does not lead to surface charges associated with…
Variational principles for field theories where variations of fields are restricted along a parametrization are considered. In particular, gauge-natural parametrized variational problems are defined as those in which both the Lagrangian and…
We prove quantitative polynomial Wiener-Wintner theorems in a very general setup, including measure-preserving actions of nilpotent Lie groups. Our results apply both to ergodic averages and to averages with singular integral weights. The…
Backgrounds are pervasive in almost every application of general relativity. Here we consider the Lagrangian formulation of general relativity for large perturbations with respect to a curved background spacetime. We show that Noether's…
In this paper we study the generalized variable-coefficient Gardner equations of the form $u_t + A(t)u^n\,u_x+ C(t)\,u^{2n}u_x + B(t)\,u_{xxx} + Q(t)\,u =0$. This class broadens out many other equations previously considered: Johnpillai and…
The aim of this note is to discuss the relation between one-parameter continuous symmetries of the dynamics, defined on physical grounds, and conservation laws. In the Hamiltonian formulation, such symmetries of the dynamics in general…
We address the variational problem for the generalized principal eigenvalue on $\mathbb{R}^d$ of linear and semilinear elliptic operators associated with nondegenerate diffusions controlled through the drift. We establish the…
We establish a notion of universality for the parabolic Anderson model via an invariance principle for a wide family of parabolic stochastic partial differential equations. We then use this invariance principle in order to provide an…
We investigate the relation between several generalized solution concepts for nonlinear PDE systems from fluid dynamics. More precisely, we study measure-valued solutions, dissipative weak solutions, and energy-variational solutions. For…
We consider gravity in four dimensions in the vielbein formulation, where the fundamental variables are a tetrad $e$ and a SO(3,1) connection $\omega$. We start with the most general action principle compatible with diffeomorphism…
Numerical algorithms based on variational and symplectic integrators exhibit special features that make them promising candidates for application to general relativity and other constrained Hamiltonian systems. This paper lays part of the…
We derive a Noether current for the Eulerian variational principle of ideal non-barotropic magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). It was shown previously that ideal non-barotropic MHD is mathematically equivalent to a five function field theory with…
