Divergence operators and odd Poisson brackets

Yvette Kosmann-Schwarzbach, Juan Monterde (2002)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We define the divergence operators on a graded algebra, and we show that, given an odd Poisson bracket on the algebra, the operator that maps an element to the divergence of the hamiltonian derivation that it defines is a generator of the bracket. This is the “odd laplacian”, Δ , of Batalin-Vilkovisky quantization. We then study the generators of odd Poisson brackets on supermanifolds, where divergences of graded vector fields can be defined either in terms of berezinian volumes or of graded connections. Examples...

Doubly asymptotic trajectories of Lagrangian systems and a problem by Kirchhoff

Maria Letizia Bertotti, Sergey V. Bolotin (1997)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We consider Lagrangian systems with Lagrange functions which exhibit a quadratic time dependence. We prove the existence of infinitely many solutions tending, as t ± , to an «equilibrium at infinity». This result is applied to the Kirchhoff problem of a heavy rigid body moving through a boundless incompressible ideal fluid, which is at rest at infinity and has zero vorticity.

Drive network to a desired orbit by pinning control

Quanjun Wu, Hua Zhang (2015)

Kybernetika

The primary objective of the present paper is to develop an approach for analyzing pinning synchronization stability in a complex delayed dynamical network with directed coupling. Some simple yet generic criteria for pinning such coupled network are derived analytically. Compared with some existing works, the primary contribution is that the synchronization manifold could be chosen as a weighted average of all the nodes states in the network for the sake of practical control tactics, which displays...

Dynamical systems with Newtonian type potentials

Marco Degiovanni, Fabio Giannoni, Antonio Marino (1987)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We study the existence of regular periodic solutions to some dynamical systems whose potential energy is negative, has only a singular point and goes to zero at iniìnity. We give sufficient conditions to the existence of periodic solutions of assigned period which do not meet the singularity.

Dynamiques recuites de type Feynman-Kac : résultats précis et conjectures

Pierre Del Moral, Laurent Miclo (2006)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Soit U une fonction définie sur un ensemble fini E muni d'un noyau markovien irréductible M. L'objectif du papier est de comparer théoriquement deux procédures stochastiques de minimisation globale de U : le recuit simulé et un algorithme génétique. Pour ceci on se placera dans la situation idéalisée d'une infinité de particules disponibles et nous ferons une hypothèse commode d'existence de suffisamment de symétries du cadre (E,M,U). On verra notamment que contrairement au recuit simulé, toute...
