The classical Lagrange formalism is generalized to the case of arbitrary stationary (but not necessarily conservative) dynamical systems. It is shown that the equations of motion for such systems can be derived in the standard ways from the…
The Enskog kinetic equation is considered to determine the mobility $\lambda$ and diffusion $D$ transport coefficients of intruders immersed in a granular gas of inelastic hard spheres (grains). Intruders and grains are in contact with a…
Concepts underlying the Enskog kinetic theory of hard-spheres are applied to include short-range correlation effects in a model for transport coefficients of strongly coupled plasmas. The approach is based on an extension of the effective…
We show how a large family of master equations, describing quantum Brownian motion of a harmonic oscillator with translationally invariant damping, can be derived within a phenomenological approach, based on the assumption that an…
The non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and kinetic theory for a model of a confined quasi-two-dimensional gas of inelastic hard spheres is presented. The dynamics of the particles includes an effective mechanism to transfer the energy…
In this note, we propose coordinate-invariant notions of incremental Lyapunov function and provide characterizations of incremental stability in terms of existence of the proposed Lyapunov functions.
A perturbation method to analytically describe the dynamics of a classical spinning particle, based on the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon (MPD) equations of motion, is presented. By a power series expansion with respect to the particle's spin…
The emergence of chaotic motion is discussed for hard-point like and soft collisions between two particles in a one-dimensional box. It is known that ergodicity may be obtained in hard-point like collisions for specific mass ratios…
We study the Lyapunov instability of a two-dimensional fluid composed of rigid diatomic molecules, with two interaction sites each, and interacting with a WCA site-site potential. We compute full spectra of Lyapunov exponents for such a…
The solutions that describe the motion of the classical simple pendulum have been known for very long time and are given in terms of elliptic functions, which are doubly periodic functions in the complex plane. The independent variable of…
A simple position probability density formulation is presented for the motion of a particle in a spherically symmetric potential. The approach provides an alternative to Newtonian methods for presentation in an elementary course, and…
In this paper, two types of Lyapunov exponents: random Lyapunov exponents and directional Lyapunov exponents, and the corresponding entropies: random entropy and directional entropy, are considered for smooth $\mathbb{Z}^k$-actions. The…
In this article, we introduce Lyapunov-type results to investigate the stability of the trivial solution of a Stieltjes dynamical system. We utilize prolongation results to establish the global existence of the maximal solution. Using…
The relativistic Wigner function for spin 1/2 particles is the subject of active research due to diverse applications. However, further progress is hindered by the fabulous complexity of the integro-differential equations of motion. We…
A Hamiltonian formulation for the classical problem of electromagnetic interaction of two charged relativistic particles is found.
We establish the large-time behavior for the coupled kinetic-fluid equations. More precisely, we consider the Vlasov equation coupled to the compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations through a drag forcing term. For this system, the…
The kinetic theory of rarefied gases and numerical schemes based on the Boltzmann equation have evolved to the cornerstone of non-equilibrium gas dynamics. However, their counterparts in the dense regime remain rather exotic for practical…
Lyapunov modes are periodic spatial perturbations of phase-space states of many-particle systems, which are associated with the small positive or negative Lyapunov exponents. Although familiar for hard-particle systems in one, two, and…
The relation between equal-time and light-front wave functions is studied using models for which the four-dimensional solution of the Bethe-Salpeter wave function can be obtained. The popular prescription of defining the longitudinal…
In many situations, one can approximate the behavior of a quantum system, i.e. a wave function subject to a partial differential equation, by effective classical equations which are ordinary differential equations. A general method and…
