Contact hamiltonians distinguishing locally certain Goursat systems

Piotr Mormul (2000)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

For the first time in dimension 9, the Goursat distributions are not locally smoothly classified by their small growth vector at a point. As shown in [M1], in dimension 9 of the underlying manifold 93 different local behaviours are possible and four irregular pairs of them have coinciding small growth vectors. In the present paper we distinguish geometrically objects in three of those pairs. Smooth functions in three variables - contact hamiltonians in the terminology of Arnold, [A]...

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

A characterization of systems of first order differential equations with (classical) complete solutions is given. Systems with (classical) complete solutions that consist of hyperplanes are also characterized.
