Robust transitivity in hamiltonian dynamics

Meysam Nassiri, Enrique R. Pujals (2012)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

A goal of this work is to study the dynamics in the complement of KAM tori with focus on non-local robust transitivity. We introduce C r open sets ( r = 1 , 2 , , ) of symplectic diffeomorphisms and Hamiltonian systems, exhibitinglargerobustly transitive sets. We show that the C closure of such open sets contains a variety of systems, including so-calleda priori unstable integrable systems. In addition, the existence of ergodic measures with large support is obtained for all those systems. A main ingredient of...

Several examples of nonholonomic mechanical systems

Martin Swaczyna (2011)

Communications in Mathematics

A unified geometric approach to nonholonomic constrained mechanical systems is applied to several concrete problems from the classical mechanics of particles and rigid bodies. In every of these examples the given constraint conditions are analysed, a corresponding constraint submanifold in the phase space is considered, the corresponding constrained mechanical system is modelled on the constraint submanifold, the reduced equations of motion of this system (i.e. equations of motion defined on the...

Solving non-holonomic Lagrangian dynamics in terms of almost product structures.

Manuel de León, David Martín de Diego (1996)

Extracta Mathematicae

Given a Lagrangian system with non-holonomic constraints we construct an almost product structure on the tangent bundle of the configuration manifold such that the projection of the Euler-Lagrange vector field gives the dynamics of the system. In a degenerate case, we develop a constraint algorithm which determines a final constraint submanifold where a completely consistent dynamics of the initial system exists.

Sul collasso di un ammasso di materia disgregata. Nota I

Starting from the considerations developed in [4], it is shown that the only forces at a distance exerted among the elements of an isolated spherical cluster of incoherent matter which, preserving homogeneity, is collapsing are those expressed by Newton's law of gravitation and those of the elastic type. Furthermore the reverse is shown, that is if the forces at a distance are of these two types during the collapse the homogeneity is preserved.

With reference to Nota I, the hypothesis that the cluster 𝒰 is spherical is substituted by the hypothesis that it has an isotropic behaviour with respect to a given frame of reference O with origin in an element O internal to 𝒰 . The kinematical behaviour of 𝒰 during the collapse with respect to the frames of reference with origin in the elements of 𝒰 and in translatory motion with respect to O is studied. This behaviour is the same with respect to each of such frames, which are in translatory motion...

Sulla legge di gravitazione universale. Nota I

Dionigi Galletto, Bruno Barberis (1984)

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

Without making recourse to Newton's law of gravitation and starting from the concept of gravitational force, the concepts of active gravitational mass and of passive gravitational mass are introduced. Furthermore it is proved that they can be identified and that in Newton's law of gravitation the linear dependence on masses necessarily follows from the principle of superposition of simultaneous forces and from Newton's third law of dynamics.
