We develop a convergent variational perturbation theory for the frequency of time-periodic solutions of nonlinear dynamical systems. The power of the theory is illustrated by applying it to the Duffing oscillator.
We describe an algorithm for the numerical solution of second order linear differential equations in the highly-oscillatory regime. It is founded on the recent observation that the solutions of equations of this type can be accurately…
We consider the bifurcation problem $u'' + \lambda u = N(u)$ with two point boundary conditions where $N(u)$ is a general nonlinear term which may also depend on the eigenvalue $\lambda$. We give a variational characterization of the…
In this paper, we consider the initial value problem for some nonlinear second-order ODEs of Duffing type. We study the large time behavior of the solutions to this problem, from both the perspectives of mathematical and numerical analysis.…
In this work, we investigate the period doubling phenomenon in the periodically forced asymmetric Duffing oscillator. We use the known steady-state asymptotic solution -- the amplitude-frequency implicit function -- and known criterion for…
We study an eigenvalue problem in the framework of double phase variational integrals and we introduce a sequence of nonlinear eigenvalues by a minimax procedure. We establish a continuity result for the nonlinear eigenvalues with respect…
We calculate the eigenvalues of some two-dimensional non-Hermitian Hamiltonians by means of a pseudospectral method and straightforward diagonalization of the Hamiltonian matrix in a suitable basis set. Both sets of results agree remarkably…
A simple formula for one-loop logarithmic divergences on the background of a two-dimensional curved space-time is derived for theories for which the second variation of the action is a nonminimal second order operator with small nonminimal…
In this paper we present a straightforward systematic method for the exact and approximate calculation of integrals that appear in formulas for the period of anharmonic oscillators and other problems of interest in classical mechanics.
A powerful method for calculating the eigenvalues of a Hamiltonian operator consists of converting the energy eigenvalue equation into a matrix equation by means of an appropriate basis set of functions. The convergence of the method can be…
The Duffing oscillator is a nonlinear extension of the ubiquitous harmonic oscillator and as such plays an outstanding role in science and technology. Experimentally, the system parameters are determined by a measurement of its response to…
Nonlinear second-order ordinary differential equations are common in various fields of science, such as physics, mechanics and biology. Here we provide a new family of integrable second-order ordinary differential equations by considering…
Time-decaying perturbations of nonlinear oscillatory systems in the plane are considered. It is assumed that the unperturbed systems are non-isochronous and the perturbations oscillate with an asymptotically constant frequency. Resonance…
In this paper we generalize and improve a method for calculating the period of a classical oscillator and other integrals of physical interest, which was recently developed by some of the authors. We derive analytical expressions that prove…
We study the dynamics of a mechanical oscillator with linear and cubic forces -the Duffing oscillator- subject to a feedback mechanism that allows the system to sustain autonomous periodic motion with well-defined amplitude and frequency.…
Aim of this work is the study of differential equations governing non--dissipative non--linear oscillators; these arise in different physical models such as the treatment of relativistic oscillators, up to generalizations to Duffing's…
This paper formalize the existence's proof of first-integrals for any second order ODE, allowing to discriminate periodic orbits. Up to the author's knowledge, such a powerful result is not available in the literature providing a tool to…
We consider a set of interwoven harmonic oscillators where the acceleration of a given oscillator is determined by the position of its nearest neighbor. We show that this problem of N non-local oscillators with periodic boundary conditions…
Summary: A system of autonomous ordinary differential equations depending on a small parameter is considered such that the unperturbed system has an invariant manifold of periodic solutions that is not normally hyperbolic but is normally…
In this work, we consider the problem of bounding the values of a covariance function corresponding to a continuous-time stationary stochastic process or signal. Specifically, for two signals whose covariance functions agree on a finite…
