The simplest (2+1)-dimensional mechanical systems associated with light-like curves, already studied by Nersessian and Ramos, are reconsidered. The action is linear in the curvature of the particle path and the moduli spaces of solutions…

We consider the optimal control problem for null curves in de Sitter 3-space defined by a functional which is linear in the curvature of the trajectory. We show how techniques based on the method of moving frames and exterior differential…

"Particle"-trajectories are defined as integrable $dx_\mu dp^\mu = 0$ paths in projective space. Quantum states evolving on such trajectories, open or closed, do not delocalise in $(x, p)$ projection, the phase associated with the…

We introduce null surfaces (or nullcone fronts) of pseudo-spherical spacelike framed curves in the three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. These surfaces are formed by the light rays emitted from points on anti-de Sitter spacelike framed…

We investigate the particle trajectories in an irrotational shallow water flow over a flat bed as periodic waves propagate on the water's free surface. Within the linear water wave theory, we show that there are no closed orbits for the…

We consider a particle with a position-dependent mass, moving in a three-dimensional semi-infinite parallelepipedal or cylindrical channel under the influence of some hyperbolic potential. We show that the lack of uniformity in the…

We obtain a class of exact solutions representing null particles moving in three-dimensional (anti-) de Sitter spaces by boosting the corresponding static point source solutions given by Deser and Jackiw. In de Sitter space the resulting…

We discuss quantum dynamics in multi-dimensional non-linear systems. It is well-known that wave functions are localized in a kicked rotor model. However, coupling with other degrees of freedom breaks the localization. In order to clarify…

We introduce the notion of conformal trajectories in three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds $M^3$. Given a conformal vector field $V\in\mathfrak{X}(M^3)$, a conformal trajectory of $V$ is a regular curve $\gamma$ in $M^3$ satisfying…

We sketch the construction of a quantum model of 3 dimensional de Sitter space, based on the Covariant Entropy Principle and the observation that semi-classical physics suggests the possibility of a consistent theory of a finite number of…

Using molecular dynamics simulations, we show that an asymmetrically shaped nanoparticle in dilute solution possesses a spontaneously curved trajectory within finite time interval, instead of the generally expected random walk. This…

For every $p\in\mathbb{R}$, we study $p$-elastic curves in the hyperbolic plane $\mathbb{H}^2$ and in the de Sitter $2$-space $\mathbb{H}_1^2$. We analyze the existence of closed $p$-elastic curves with nonconstant curvature showing that in…

We analyse the existence of closed timelike curves in spacetimes which possess an isometry. In particular we check which discrete quotients of such spaces lead to closed timelike curves. As a by-product of our analysis, we prove that the…

We investigate the trajectories of point charges in the background of finite-action vacuum solutions of Maxwell's equations known as knot solutions. More specifically, we work with a basis of electromagnetic knots generated by the so-called…

We present a new particle model that generalize for constant curvature space an infinite spin particle in flat space. The model is described by commuting Weyl spinor additional coordinates. It proved that such a model is consistent only in…

A new proof is given of the fact that the particle trajectories of the ideal incompressible fluid are analytic curves, though the solutions of the Euler equations may have a finite regularity. This is a consequence of a general fact that…

We formulate integrable flows related to the KdV hierarchy on null curves in the anti-de Sitter 3-space (${\rm AdS}$). Exploiting the specific properties of the geometry of ${\rm AdS}$, we analyze their interrelationships with Pinkall flows…

Recent studies have highlighted the sensitivity of active matter to boundaries and their geometries. Here we develop a general theory for the dynamics and statistics of active particles on curved surfaces and illustrate it on two examples.…

We present and study a Particle method for the stationary solutions of a class of transport equations. This method is inspired by non-stationary Particle methods, the time variable being replaced by one spatial variable. Particles…

Models, describing relativistic particles, where Lagrangian densities depend linearly on both the curvature and the torsion of the trajectories, are revisited in D=3 space forms. The moduli spaces of trajectories are completely and…
