Periodic orbits are important objects of discrete dynamical systems, but finding them is not always easy. We present a self-contained introductory account, aimed at non-experts, to prove their existence and study their stability using the…
The classical dynamics of particles with (non-)abelian charges and spin moving on curved manifolds is established in the Poisson-Hamilton framework. Equations of motion are derived for the minimal quadratic Hamiltonian and some extensions…
We study the long term evolution of the distance between two Keplerian confocal trajectories in the framework of the averaged restricted 3-body problem. The bodies may represent the Sun, a solar system planet and an asteroid. The secular…
Hybrid dynamical systems have proven to be a powerful modeling abstraction, yet fundamental questions regarding the dynamical properties of these systems remain. In this paper, we develop a novel class of relaxations which we use to recover…
Continuous Galerkin Petrov time discretization scheme is tested on some Hamiltonian systems including simple harmonic oscillator, Kepler's problem with different eccentricities and molecular dynamics problem. In particular, we implement the…
We consider entropically regularized, semi-discrete versions of variational problems on the set of probability measures involving optimal transport as well as other terms. We prove that the solutions can be characterized by well-posed…
We propose a methodology to study the bifurcation sequences of frozen orbits when the 2nd-order fundamental model of the satellite problem is augmented with the contribution of octupolar terms and relativistic corrections. The method is…
To obtain a well defined path integral one often employs discretizations. In the case of gravity and reparametrization invariant systems, the latter of which we consider here as a toy example, discretizations generically break…
We provide a constructive method designed in order to control the stability of a given periodic orbit of a general completely integrable system. The method consists of a specific type of perturbation, such that the resulting perturbed…
We present analytical solutions describing a family of both inwardly and outwardly spiralling orbits in the Kerr spacetime. The solutions are exact, and remarkable for their simplicity. These orbits all have the angular momentum and energy…
We formally show that the conservative second post-Newtonian (PN) accurate dynamics of spinning compact binaries moving in eccentric orbits, when spin effects are restricted to the leading order spin-orbit interaction cannot be chaotic for…
We prove a sharp orbital stability result for a class of exact steady solutions, expressed in terms of Bessel functions of the first kind, of the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equation in a disk. A special case of these solutions is…
We consider the dynamics of Dirac particles moving in the curved spaces with one coordinate subjected to compactification and thus interpolating smoothly between three- and two-dimensional spaces. We use the model of compactification, which…
It is demonstrated that the canonical distribution for a subsystem of a closed system follows directly from the solution of the time-reversible Newtonian equation of motion in which the total energy is strictly conserved. It is shown that…
Sweeping is a commonly used procedure to explicitly solve the discrete ordinates equation, which itself is a common approximation of the neutron transport equation. To sweep through the computational domain, an ordering of the spatial cells…
Unique continuation principles are fundamental properties of elliptic partial differential equations, giving conditions that guarantee that the solution to an elliptic equation must be uniformly zero. Since finite-element discretizations…
The celebrated problem of a non-homogeneous sphere rolling over a horizontal plane was proved to be integrable and was reduced to quadratures by Chaplygin. Applying the formalism of variational integrators (discrete Lagrangian systems) with…
Anisotropic Kepler problem is investigated by perturbation method in both classical and quantum mechanics. In classical mechanics, due to the singularity of the potential, global diffusion in phase space occurs at an arbitrarily small…
Discretization of curves is an ancient topic. Even discretization of curves with an eye toward differential geometry is over a century old. However there is no general theory or methodology in the literature, despite the ubiquitous use of…
We propose a discretization of classical confocal coordinates. It is based on a novel characterization thereof as factorizable orthogonal coordinate systems. Our geometric discretization leads to factorizable discrete nets with a novel…
