We consider free and proper cotangent-lifted symmetries of Hamiltonian systems. For the special case of G = SO(3), we construct symplectic slice coordinates around an arbitrary point. We thus obtain a parametrisation of the phase space…
An odd-symplectic form is a closed and maximally non-degenerate $2$-form on a compact odd-dimensional manifold. It describes the dynamics of an autonomous Hamiltonian system on a regular energy level. It is called Zoll if the induced…
We give a detailed study of the symplectic geometry of a family of integrable systems obtained by coupling two angular momenta in a non trivial way. These systems depend on a parameter t $\in$ [0, 1] and exhibit different behaviors…
A formal series transformation to Birkhoff-Gustavson normal form is obtained for toroidal magnetic field configurations in the neighborhood of a magnetic axis. Bishop's rotation-minimizing coordinates are used to obtain a local orthogonal…
We study the dynamics of a quantum or classical particle in a two-dimensional rotating anisotropic harmonic potential. By a sequence of symplectic transformations for constant rotation velocity we find uncoupled normal generalized…
Motivated by the theory of harmonic maps on Riemannian surfaces, conformal-harmonic maps between two Riemannian manifolds $M$ and $N$ were introduced in search of a natural notion of harmonicity for maps defined on a general even…
We exhibit many examples of closed symplectic manifolds on which there is an autonomous Hamiltonian whose associated flow has no nonconstant periodic orbits (the only previous explicit example in the literature was the torus T^2n (n\geq 2)…
This paper explains an application of Gromov's h-principle to prove the existence, on any orientable 4-manifold, of a folded symplectic form. That is a closed 2-form which is symplectic except on a separating hypersurface where the form…
Singular theories, characterised by the presence of degeneracies in their Lagrangian or Hamiltonian descriptions, require the systematic implementation of constraints in order to obtain well-defined dynamics. While the symplectic framework…
A new diffusion mechanism from the neighborhood of elliptic equilibria for Hamiltonian flows in three or more degrees of freedom is introduced. We thus obtain explicit real entire Hamiltonians on $\R^{2d}$, $d\geq 4$, that have a Lyapunov…
Local normal form theorems for smooth equivariant maps between infinite-dimensional manifolds are established. These normal form results are new even in finite dimensions. The proof is inspired by the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction for…
A normal form is derived for Hamiltonian-Hopf bifurcations of solitary waves in generalized nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations. This normal form is a simple second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation that is asymptotically…
Energy minimizing harmonic maps between manifolds are known to be smooth outside a rectifiable set of codimension $3$, called the singular set. The possibility that this set is not a manifold, but has arbitrarily many small gaps in it, is…
Dynamists have been studying Hamiltonian systems for a long time. However, many physical systems are dissipative and do not preserve a symplectic form. This is the case, for example, with systems involving friction, which multiply the…
We show that two orientable, four-dimensional folded symplectic toric manifolds are isomorphic provided that their orbit spaces have trivial degree-two integral cohomology and there exists a diffeomorphism of the orbit spaces (as manifolds…
We study the integrability of the Hamiltonian normal form of 1 : 2 : 2 resonance. It is known that this normal form truncated to order three is integrable. The truncated to order four normal form contains too many parameters. For a generic…
In the first part of the paper we introduce some geometric tools needed to describe slow-fast Hamiltonian systems on smooth manifolds. We start with a smooth Poisson bundle $p: M\to B$ of a regular (i.e. of constant rank) Poisson manifold…
Conformal harmonic maps from a 4-dimensional conformal manifold to a Riemannian manifold are maps satisfying a certain conformally invariant fourth order equation. We prove a general existence result for conformal harmonic maps, analogous…
We present a general analysis of the bifurcation sequences of periodic orbits in general position of a family of reversible 1:1 resonant Hamiltonian normal forms invariant under $\Z_2\times\Z_2$ symmetry. The rich structure of these…
In a closed, oriented ambient manifold $(M^n,g)$ we consider the problem of finding $\mathbb{S}^1$-valued harmonic maps with prescribed singular set. We show that the boundary of any oriented $(n-1)$-submanifold can be realised as the…
