Non-integrability of certain Hamiltonian systems. Applications of the Morales-Ramis differential Galois extension of Ziglin theory

Andrzej J. Maciejewski (2002)

Banach Center Publications

The aim of this paper is to present two examples of non academic Hamiltonian systems for which the Morales-Ramis theory can be applied effectively. First, we investigate the Gross-Neveu system with n degrees of freedom. Till now it has been proved that this system is not integrable for n = 3. We give a simple proof that it is not completely integrable for an arbitrary n ≥ 3. Our second example is a natural generalisation of the Jacobi problem of a material point moving on an ellipsoid. We formulate...

Noninvertible minimal maps

Sergiĭ Kolyada, L'ubomír Snoha, Sergeĭ Trofimchuk (2001)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

For a discrete dynamical system given by a compact Hausdorff space X and a continuous selfmap f of X the connection between minimality, invertibility and openness of f is investigated. It is shown that any minimal map is feebly open, i.e., sends open sets to sets with nonempty interiors (and if it is open then it is a homeomorphism). Further, it is shown that if f is minimal and A ⊆ X then both f(A) and f - 1 ( A ) share with A those topological properties which describe how large a set is. Using these results...

Non-landing hairs in Sierpiński curve Julia sets of transcendental entire maps

Antonio Garijo, Xavier Jarque, Mónica Moreno Rocha (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We consider the family of transcendental entire maps given by f a ( z ) = a ( z - ( 1 - a ) ) e x p ( z + a ) where a is a complex parameter. Every map has a superattracting fixed point at z = -a and an asymptotic value at z = 0. For a > 1 the Julia set of f a is known to be homeomorphic to the Sierpiński universal curve, thus containing embedded copies of any one-dimensional plane continuum. In this paper we study subcontinua of the Julia set that can be defined in a combinatorial manner. In particular, we show the existence of non-landing...

Nonlinear dynamic systems and optimal control problems on time scales

Yunfei Peng, Xiaoling Xiang, Yang Jiang (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper is mainly concerned with a class of optimal control problems of systems governed by the nonlinear dynamic systems on time scales. Introducing the reasonable weak solution of nonlinear dynamic systems, the existence of the weak solution for the nonlinear dynamic systems on time scales and its properties are presented. Discussing L1-strong-weak lower semicontinuity of integral functional, we give sufficient conditions for the existence of optimal controls. Using integration by parts formula...

Nonlinear observers for locally uniformly observable systems

Hassan Hammouri, M. Farza (2003)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper deals with the observability analysis and the observer synthesis of a class of nonlinear systems. In the single output case, it is known [4, 5, 6] that systems which are observable independently of the inputs, admit an observable canonical form. These systems are called uniformly observable systems. Moreover, a high gain observer for these systems can be designed on the basis of this canonical form. In this paper, we extend the above results to multi-output uniformly observable systems....

Nonlinear Schrödinger equation on four-dimensional compact manifolds

Patrick Gérard, Vittoria Pierfelice (2010)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

We prove two new results about the Cauchy problem in the energy space for nonlinear Schrödinger equations on four-dimensional compact manifolds. The first one concerns global well-posedness for Hartree-type nonlinearities and includes approximations of cubic NLS on the sphere as a particular case. The second one provides, in the case of zonal data on the sphere, local well-posedness for quadratic nonlinearities as well as a necessary and sufficient condition of global well-posedness for small energy...
