Homoclinic orbits for a class of singular second order Hamiltonian systems in ℝ3

Joanna Janczewska, Jakub Maksymiuk (2012)

Open Mathematics

We consider a conservative second order Hamiltonian system q ¨ + V ( q ) = 0 in ℝ3 with a potential V having a global maximum at the origin and a line l ∩ 0 = ϑ as a set of singular points. Under a certain compactness condition on V at infinity and a strong force condition at singular points we study, by the use of variational methods and geometrical arguments, the existence of homoclinic solutions of the system.

Homogeneous bundles and the first eigenvalue of symmetric spaces

Leonardo Biliotti, Alessandro Ghigi (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this note we prove the stability of the Gieseker point of an irreducible homogeneous bundle over a rational homogeneous space. As an application we get a sharp upper estimate for the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian of an arbitrary Kähler metric on a compact Hermitian symmetric spaces of ABCD–type.

Homogeneous variational problems: a minicourse

David J. Saunders (2011)

Communications in Mathematics

A Finsler geometry may be understood as a homogeneous variational problem, where the Finsler function is the Lagrangian. The extremals in Finsler geometry are curves, but in more general variational problems we might consider extremal submanifolds of dimension m . In this minicourse we discuss these problems from a geometric point of view.

Homologie des ensembles semi-pfaffiens

Jean-Marie Lion, Jean-Philippe Rolin (1996)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Un sous-ensemble pfaffien d’un ouvert semi-analytique M R n est une intersection finie d’ensembles semi-analytiques relativement compacts de R n et de feuilles non spiralantes de certains feuilletages analytiques de codimension 1 de M . Les sous-ensembles semi-pfaffiens de M sont les éléments de la plus petite classe de sous-ensembles de M contenant les sous-ensembles pfaffiens de M , stable par intersection finie, réunion finie et différence symétrique. Les ensembles T -pfaffiens sont les éléments de la...
