The geometric formulation of Hamilton--Jacobi theory for systems with nonholonomic constraints is developed, following the ideas of the authors in previous papers. The relation between the solutions of the Hamilton--Jacobi problem with the…
In this letter we show that although the application of standard Lyapunov analysis predicts that completely integrable Kepler motion is unstable, the geometrical analysis of Horwitz et al [1] predicts the observed stability. This seems to…
The problem of the dynamical stability of anistropic systems is studied, by proposing a criterion in terms of the adiabatic local index $\gamma$. The result has general validity and can be applied to several physical situations.…
We study a class of dynamical systems for which the motions can be described in terms of geodesics on a manifold (ordinary potential models can be cast into this form by means of a conformal map). It is rigorously proven that the geodesic…
We determine the Christoffel's symbols for the Siegel-Jacobi ball endowed with the balanced metric. We study the equations of geodesics on the Siegel-Jacobi ball. We calculate the covariant derivative of one-forms in the variables in which…
We establish the essentially optimal form of Donaldson's geodesic stability conjecture regarding existence of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics. We carry this out by exploring in detail the metric geometry of Mabuchi geodesic rays,…
Consider the three-body problem with an attractive $1/r^2$ potential. Modulo symmetries, the dynamics of the bounded zero-angular momentum solutions is equivalent to a geodesic flow on the thrice-punctured sphere, or ``pair of pants''. The…
We consider here a recently proposed geometrical criterion for local instability based on the geodesic deviation equation. Although such a criterion can be useful in some cases, we show here that, in general, it is neither necessary nor…
This work studies the interplay between Green functions, the index of determinacy of spectral measures and interior finite rank perturbations of Jacobi operators. The index of determinacy quantifies the stability of uniqueness of solutions…
In this work we study the geodesic motion on a noncommutative space-time. As a result we find a non-commutative geodesic equation and then we derive corrections of the deviation angle per revolution in terms of the non-commutative parameter…
The purpose of this article is to extend the applicability of the stationarity principle of the full Jacobi action to non-conservative natural systems and to derive equations of motion corresponding to this extended principle. To this end,…
New results concerning the orbital stability of periodic traveling wave solutions for the "abcd" Boussinesq model will be shown in this manuscript. For the existence of solutions, we use basic tools of ordinary differential equations to…
In this paper it is shown that the space of tight geodesic segments connecting any two vertices in a complex of cycles has finite, uniformly bounded dimension. The dimension is defined in terms of a discrete analogue of Jacobi fields, which…
We adapt the metric approach to the study of stationary ergodic Hamilton-Jacobi equations, for which a notion of admissible random (sub)solution is defined. For any level of the Hamiltonian greater than or equal to a distinguished critical…
We study the geodesic motion in a space-time describing a swirling universe. We show that the geodesic equations can be fully decoupled in the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism leading to an additional constant of motion. The analytical solutions…
For the Newtonian \(N\)-body problem at nonnegative energy, we study solution sets selected by the Jacobi--Maupertuis variational principle and by the associated stationary Hamilton--Jacobi equation. We prove a compactness/stability theorem…
An effective characterization of chaotic conservative Hamiltonian systems in terms of the curvature associated with a Riemannian metric tensor derived from the structure of the Hamiltonian has been extended to a wide class of potential…
This article studies the application of the Jacobi-Eisenhart lift, Jacobi metric and Maupertius transformation to the Kepler system. We start by reviewing fundamentals and the Jacobi metric. Then we study various ways to apply the lift to…
In a previous article a relationship was established between the linearized metrics of General Relativity associated with geodesics and the Dirac Equation of quantum mechanics. In this paper the extension of that result to arbitrary curves…
We study the Lyapunov stability of stationary solutions to contact-type Hamilton-Jacobi equations on a compact manifold. Previous works typically assume $C^3$ Tonelli Hamiltonians and characterize stability in terms of Mather measures. In…
