This paper studies hamiltonization of nonholonomic systems using geometric tools. By making use of symmetries and suitable first integrals of the system, we explicitly define a global 2-form for which the gauge transformed nonholonomic…
Finite-order invariants of knots in arbitrary 3-manifolds (including non-orientable ones) are constructed and studied by methods of the topology of discriminant sets. Obstructions to the integrability of admissible weight systems to…
We study the 3-form flux $H_{\m\n\l}$ associated with the semi-classical geometry of $G/H$ gauged WZW models. We derive a simple, general expression for the flux in an orthonormal frame and use it to explicitly verify conformal invariance…
This is a survey on finite-dimensional integrable dynamical systems related to Hamiltonian $G$-actions. Within a framework of noncommutative integrability we study integrability of $G$-invariant systems, collective motions and reduced…
The paper is devoted to differential geometric invariants determining a Frenet curve in up to a direct similarity These invariants can be presented by the Euclidean curvatures in terms of an arc lengths of the spherical indicatrices. Then,…
This paper introduces the concept of Fractal Frenet equations, a set of differential equations used to describe the behavior of vectors along fractal curves. The study explores the analogue of arc length for fractal curves, providing a…
Via a non degenerate symmetric bilinear form we identify the coadjoint representation with a new representation and so we induce on the orbits a simplectic form. By considering Hamiltonian systems on the orbits we study some features of…
Issues relevant to the flow chirality and structure are focused, while the new theoretical results, including even a distinctive theory, are introduced. However, it is hope that the presentation, with a low starting point but a steep rise,…
We describe the Hamiltonian structures, including the Poisson brackets and Hamiltonians, for free boundary problems for incompressible fluid flows with vorticity. The Hamiltonian structure is used to obtain variational principles for…
We develop a gauge-invariant formalism to describe metric perturbations in five-dimensional brane-world theories. In particular, this formalism applies to models originating from heterotic M-theory. We introduce a generalized longitudinal…
In the loop representation the quantum constraints of gravity can be solved. This fact allowed significant progress in the understanding of the space of states of the theory. The analysis of the constraints over loop dependent wavefunctions…
We give a review of truncated L$_\infty$ algebras, as used in the study of higher gauge theory. These structures are believed to hold the correct properties to adequately describe gauge theory of extended objects. We discuss how to…
The works of Donaldson and Mark make the structure of the Seiberg-Witten invariant of 3-manifolds clear. It corresponds to certain torsion type invariants counting flow lines and closed orbits of a gradient flow of a circle-valued Morse map…
We derive Frenet-type results and invariants of spatial curves immersed in $3$-dimensional generalized Minkowski spaces, i.e., in linear spaces which satisfy all axioms of finite dimensional real Banach spaces except for the symmetry axiom.…
A great number of works is devoted to qualitative investigation of Hamiltonian systems. One of tools of such investigation is the method of skew-symmetric differential forms. In present work, under investigation Hamiltonian systems in…
We examine the standard Courant bracket and its extensions, defined by twists with different $O(D,D)$ transformations relevant to string theory. We analyze Dirac structures on these Courant algebroids and derive the constraints they impose…
In a companion paper, we introduced a notion of multi-Dirac structures, a graded version of Dirac structures, and we discussed their relevance for classical field theories. In the current paper we focus on the geometry of multi-Dirac…
We develop a general approach to study geometric flows on homogeneous spaces. Our main tool will be a dynamical system defined on the variety of Lie algebras called the bracket flow, which coincides with the original geometric flow after a…
We investigate functionals defined on manifolds through parameterizations. If they are to be meaningful, from a geometrical viewpoint, they ought to be invariant under reparameterizations. Standard, local, integral functionals with this…
In the paper, some concepts of modern differential geometry are used as a basis to develop an invariant theory of mechanical systems, including systems with gyroscopic forces. An interpretation of systems with gyroscopic forces in the form…
