We present some new derivations of the effect of a plane gravitational wave on a light ray. A simple interpretation of the results is that a gravitational wave causes a phase modulation of electromagnetic waves. We arrive at this picture…
We compute the length of geodesics on a Riemannian manifold by regular polynomial interpolation of the global solution of the eikonal equation related to the line element $ds^2=g_{ij}dx^idx^j$ of the manifold. Our algorithm approximates the…
In this paper we prove the global convergence of the complex Jacobi method for Hermitian matrices for a large class of generalized serial pivot strategies. For a given Hermitian matrix $A$ of order $n$ we find a constant $\gamma<1$…
In this paper we investigate a complex symmetric generalization of general relativity and in particular we investigate its linearized field equations. We begin by reviewing some basic definitions and structures in Moffat's symmetric complex…
In this survey, we review the classical Hamilton Jacobi theory from a geometric point of view in different geometric backgrounds. We propose a Hamilton Jacobi equation for different geometric structures attending to one particular…
Conditions for the existence of closed geodesics is a classic, much-studied subject in Riemannian geometry, with many beautiful results and powerful techniques. However, many of the techniques that work so well in that context are far less…
Equations of geodesic deviation for the 3-dimensional and 4-dimensional Riemann spaces are discussed. Availability of wide classes of exact solutions of such equations, due to recent results for the matrix Schr\"odinger equation, is…
The Relationship between the Neumann system and the Jacobi system in arbitrary dimensions is elucidated from the point of view of constrained Hamiltonian systems. Dirac brackets for canonical variables of both systems are derived from the…
In this paper, we prove that Linearization Stability of Einstein Field Equations is a Generic Property in the sense that within the class $\mathcal{V}$ of space-times which admit a compact Cauchy hypersurface of constant mean curvature, the…
We study a generalized ergodic problem (E), which is a Hamilton-Jacobi equation of contact type, in the flat $n$-dimensional torus. We first obtain existence of solutions to this problem under quite general assumptions. Various examples are…
We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Dirichlet problem for Hamilton-Jacobi equations with large drift terms, where the drift terms are given by the Hamiltonian vector fields of Hamiltonian $H$. This is an attempt to…
The geodesic deviation equation is generalized to worldline deviation equations describing the relative accelerations of charged spinning particles in the framework of Dixon-Souriau equations of motion.
A challenging issue in General Relativity concerns the determination of the manifestly-covariant continuum Hamiltonian structure underlying the Einstein field equations and the related formulation of the corresponding covariant…
In this work we revisit the geometric approach to chaos in Hamiltonian dynamics, by means of the Jacobi-Levi-Civita equation (JLCE). We inspect numerically two low-dimensional dynamical systems; show that, along chaotic orbits, the…
The real coordinates separating geodesic Hamilton-Jacobi equation on three-dimensional Minkowski space in several cases cannot be defined in the whole space. We show through an example how to naturally extend them to complex variables…
Jacobi/Poisson algebras are algebraic counterparts of Jacobi/Poisson manifolds. We introduce representations of a Jacobi algebra $A$ and Frobenius Jacobi algebras as symmetric objects in the category. A characterization theorem for…
We derive the Hamiltonian for spherically symmetric Lovelock gravity using the geometrodynamics approach pioneered by Kucha\v{r} in the context of four-dimensional general relativity. When written in terms of the areal radius, the…
Coifman, Lions, Meyer and Semmes asked in 1993 whether the Jacobian operator and other compensated compactness quantities map their natural domain of definition onto the real-variable Hardy space $\mathcal{H}^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$. We present an…
We first define what we mean by gravitational lensing equations in a general space-time. A set of exact relations are then derived that can be used as the gravitational lens equations in all physical situations. The caveat is that into…
The most general Jacobi brackets in $\mathbb{R}^3$ are constructed after solving the equations imposed by the Jacobi identity. Two classes of Jacobi brackets were identified, according to the rank of the Jacobi structures. The associated…
