Many experimental techniques aim at determining the Hamiltonian of a given system. The Hamiltonian describes the system's evolution in the absence of dissipation, and is often central to control or interpret an experiment. Here, we…
It is described how the standard Poisson bracket formulas should be modified in order to incorporate integrals of divergences into the Hamiltonian formalism and why this is necessary. Examples from Einstein gravity and Yang-Mills gauge…
A framework for statistical-mechanical analysis of quantum Hamiltonians is introduced. The approach is based upon a gradient flow equation in the space of Hamiltonians such that the eigenvectors of the initial Hamiltonian evolve toward…
We consider a relativistic extended object described by a reparametrization invariant local action that depends on the extrinsic curvature of the worldvolume swept out by the object as it evolves. We provide a Hamiltonian formulation of the…
We develop Hamiltonian mechanics on Aristotelian manifolds, which lack local boost symmetry and admit absolute time and space structures. We construct invariant phase space dynamics, define free Hamiltonians, and establish a generalized…
Nambu dynamics is a generalized Hamiltonian dynamics of more than two variables, whose time evolutions are given by the Nambu bracket, a generalization of the canonical Poisson bracket. Nambu dynamics can always be represented in the form…
We consider the questions connected with the Hamiltonian properties of the Whitham equations in case of several spatial dimensions. An essential point of our approach here is a connection of the Hamiltonian structure of the Whitham system…
By examining both the divergence of the velocity vector in orthogonal Cartesian coordinate space $\mathbf{\Gamma} $ of dimension $\R^{\textrm {2fN}}$ and the structure of the Hamiltonian determining a system trajectory, it is shown that the…
The dynamics of a three-dimensional Hamilton-Poisson system is closely related to its constants of motion, the energy or Hamiltonian function $H$ and a Casimir $C$ of the corresponding Lie algebra. The orbits of the system are included in…
In view of the recent interest in a short proof of the Jacobi identity for the Poisson-brackets, we provide an alternative simple proof for the same. Our derivation is based on the validity of the Leibnitz rule in the context of dynamical…
The aim of this work is to show that particle mechanics, both classical and quantum, Hamiltonian and Lagrangian, can be derived from few simple physical assumptions. Assuming deterministic and reversible time evolution will give us a…
This paper is a generalization of previous work on the use of classical canonical transformations to evaluate Hamiltonian path integrals for quantum mechanical systems. Relevant aspects of the Hamiltonian path integral and its measure are…
An adequate characterization of the dynamics of Hamiltonian systems at physically relevant scales has been largely lacking. Here we investigate this fundamental problem and we show that the finite-scale Hamiltonian dynamics is governed by…
We introduce two numerical conjugacy invariants for dynamical systems -- the complexity and weak complexity indices -- which are well-suited for the study of "completely integrable" Hamiltonian systems. These invariants can be seen as "slow…
We investigate the problem of fast-forwarding quantum evolution, whereby the dynamics of certain quantum systems can be simulated with gate complexity that is sublinear in the evolution time. We provide a definition of fast-forwarding that…
Given a first order dynamical system possessing a commutative algebra of dynamical symmetries, we show that, under certain conditions, there exists a Poisson structure on an open neighbourhood of its regular (not necessarily compact)…
Reversible part of evolution equations of physical systems is often generated by a Poisson bracket. We discuss geometric means of construction of Poisson brackets and their mutual coupling (direct, semidirect and matched-pair products) as…
In this manuscript, we present a general and exact method for classicalizing the dynamics of any $N$-level quantum system, transforming quantum evolution into a classical-like framework using the geometry of complex projective spaces…
Time-driven quantum systems are important in many different fields of physics like cold atoms, solid state, optics, etc. Many of their properties are encoded in the time evolution operator which is calculated by using a time-ordered product…
The quantum-classical Liouville equation describes the dynamics of a quantum subsystem coupled to a classical environment. It has been simulated using various methods, notably, surface-hopping schemes. A representation of this equation in…
