A complete solution of an implicit second order ordinary differential equation is defined by an immersive two-parameter family of geometric solutions on the equation hypersurface. We show that a completely integrable equation is either of Clairaut type or of first order type. Moreover, we define a complete singular solution, an immersive one-parameter family of singular solutions on the contact singular set. We give conditions for existence of a complete solution and a complete singular solution...
We see how the first jet bundle of curves into affine space can be realized as a homogeneous space of the Galilean group. Cartan connections with this model are precisely the geometric structure of second-order ordinary differential equations under time-preserving transformations - sometimes called KCC-theory. With certain regularity conditions, we show that any such Cartan connection induces “laboratory” coordinate systems, and the geodesic equations in this coordinates form a system of second-order...
Let (P,ω) be a symplectic manifold. We find an integrability condition for an implicit differential system D' which is formed by a Lagrangian submanifold in the canonical symplectic tangent bundle (TP,ὡ).
Given a vector field X on an algebraic variety V over ℂ, I compare the following two objects: (i) the envelope of X, the smallest algebraic pseudogroup over V whose Lie algebra contains X, and (ii) the Galois pseudogroup of the foliation defined by the vector field X + d/dt (restricted to one fibre t = constant). I show that either they are equal, or the second has codimension one in the first.
In a crystalline algorithm, a tangential velocity is used implicitly. In this short note, it is specified for the case of evolving plane curves, and is characterized by using the intrinsic heat equation.
