New block matrix spectral problem and Hamiltonian structure of the discrete integrable coupling system

In [W.X. Ma, J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 40 (2007) 15055], Prof. Ma gave a beautiful result (a discrete variational identity). In this Letter, based on a discrete block matrix spectral problem, a new hierarchy of Lax integrable lattice equations with four potentials is derived. By using of the discrete variational identity, we obtain Hamiltonian structure of the discrete soliton equation hierarchy. Finally, an integrable coupling system of the soliton equation hierarchy and its Hamiltonian structure are obtained through the discrete variational identity.     

Lie symmetries and non-Noether conserved quantities for Hamiltonian canonical equations

This paper focuses on studying Lie symmetries and non-Noether conserved quantities of Hamiltonian dynamical systems in phase space. Based on the infinitesimal transformations with respect to the generalized coordinates and generalized momenta, we obtain the determining equations and structure equation of the Lie symmetry for Hamiltonian dynamical systems. This work extends the research of non-Noether conserved quantity for Hamilton canonical equations, and leads directly to a new type of non-Noether conserved quantities of the systems. Finally, an example is given to illustrate these results.     

Odd Hamiltonian structure for supersymmetric Sawada-Kotera equation

We study the supersymmetric N=1 hierarchy connected with the Lax operator of the supersymmetric Sawada-Kotera equation. This operator produces the physical equations as well as the exotic equations with odd time. The odd Bi-Hamiltonian structure for the N=1 supersymmetric Sawada-Kotera equation is defined. The product of the symplectic and implectic Hamiltonian operator gives us the recursion operator. In that way we prove the integrability of the supersymmetric Sawada-Kotera equation in the sense that it has the Bi-Hamiltonian structure. The so-called “quadratic” Hamiltonian operator of even order generates the exotic equations while the “cubic” odd Hamiltonian operator generates the physical equations.     

Lie symmetries and conserved quantities of discrete nonholonomic Hamiltonian systems

This paper focuses on studying Lie symmetries and conserved quantities of discrete nonholonomic Hamiltonian systems. Firstly, the discrete generalized Hamiltonian canonical equations and discrete energy equation of nonholonomic Hamiltonian systems are derived from discrete Hamiltonian action. Secondly, the determining equations and structure equation of Lie symmetry of the system are obtained. Thirdly, the Lie theorems and the conservation quantities are given for the discrete nonholonomic Hamiltonian systems. Finally, an example is discussed to illustrate the application of the results.     

Double Bracket Equations and Geodesic Flows on Symmetric Spaces

In this paper we consider the geometry of Hamiltonian flows on the cotangent bundle of coadjoint orbits of compact Lie groups and on symmetric spaces. A key idea here is the use of the normal metric to define the kinetic energy. This leads to Hamiltonian flows of the double bracket type. We analyze the integrability of geodesic flows according to the method of Thimm. We obtain via the double bracket formalism a quite explicit form of the relevant commuting flows and a correspondingly transparent proof of involutivity. We demonstrate for example integrability of the geodesic flow on the real and complex Grassmannians. We also consider right invariant systems and the generalized rigid body equations in this setting.

Hamiltonian operators and ℓ-coverings

An efficient method to construct Hamiltonian structures for nonlinear evolution equations is described. It is based on the notions of variational Schouten bracket and ℓ^*-covering. The latter serves the role of the cotangent bundle in the category of nonlinear evolution PDEs. We first consider two illustrative examples (the KdV equation and the Boussinesq system) and reconstruct for them the known Hamiltonian structures by our methods. For the coupled KdV–mKdV system, a new Hamiltonian structure is found and its uniqueness (in the class of polynomial (x,t)-independent structures) is proved. We also construct a nonlocal Hamiltonian structure for this system and prove its compatibility with the local one.     

Coupled scalar field equations for nonlinear wave modulations in dispersive media

A review of the generic features as well as the exact analytical solutions of a class of coupled scalar field equations governing nonlinear wave modulations in dispersive media like plasmas is presented. The equations are derivable from a Hamiltonian function which, in most cases, has the unusual property that the associated kinetic energy is not positive definite. To start with, a simplified derivation of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation for the coupling of an amplitude modulated high-frequency wave to a suitable low-frequency wave is discussed. Coupled sets of time-evolution equations like the Zakharov system, the Schrödinger-Boussinesq system and the Schrödinger-Korteweg-de Vries system are then introduced. For stationary propagation of the coupled waves, the latter two systems yield a generic system of a pair of coupled, ordinary differential equations with many free parameters. Different classes of exact analytical solutions of the generic system of equations are then reviewed. A comparison between the various sets of governing equations as well as between their exact analytical solutions is presented. Parameter regimes for the existence of different types of localized solutions are also discussed. The generic system of equations has a Hamiltonian structure, and is closely related to the well-known Hénon-Heiles system which has been extensively studied in the field of nonlinear dynamics. In fact, the associated generic Hamiltonian is identically the same as the generalized Hénon-Heiles Hamiltonian for the case of coupled waves in a magnetized plasma with negative group dispersion. When the group dispersion is positive, there exists a novel Hamiltonian which is structurally same as the generalized Hénon-Heiles Hamiltonian but with indefinite kinetic energy. The above correspondence between the two systems has been exploited to obtain the parameter regimes for the complete integrability of the coupled waves. There exists a direct one-to-one correspondence between the known integrable cases of the generic Hamiltonian and the stationary Hamiltonian flows associated with the only integrable nonlinear evolution equations (of polynomial and autonomous type) with a scale-weight of seven. The relevance of the generic system to other equations like the self-dual Yang-Mills equations, the complex Korteweg-de Vries equation and the complexified classical dynamical equations has also been discussed.     

New DLW Hierarchy of an Integrable Coupling and Its Hamiltonian Structure

A type of higher-dimensional loop algebra is constructed from which an isospectral problem is established. It follows that an integrable coupling, actually an extended integrable model of the existed solitary hierarchy of equations, is obtained by taking use of the zero curvature equation, whose Hamiltonian structure is worked out by employing the constructed quadratic identity.     

Scalar Charged Particle in Weyl–Wigner–Moyal Phase Space. Constant Magnetic Field

A relativistic phase-space representation for a class of observables with matrix-valued Weyl symbols proportional to the identity matrix (charge-invariant observables) is proposed. We take into account the nontrivial charge structure of the position and momentum operators. The evolution equation coincides with its analog in relativistic quantum mechanics with nonlocal Hamiltonian under conditions where particle-pair creation does not take place (free particle and constant magnetic field). The differences in the equations are connected with the peculiarities of the constraints on the initial conditions. An effective increase in coherence between eigenstates of the Hamiltonian is found and possibilities of its experimental observation are discussed.     

A Hamiltonian structure associated with a matrix spectral problem of arbitrary-order

Starting from a specific matrix iso-spectral problem, an associated hierarchy of multi-component Hamiltonian equations is constructed, based on zero curvature equations. The key point is to choose appropriate time parts of Lax pairs which can yield evolution equations, and the existence of a Hamiltonian structure for the obtained hierarchy is established by means of the trace identity. An example with five components is computed, along with its Hamiltonian structure.     

Hamilton formalism and variational principle construction

It is widely accepted that a variational principle cannot be constructed for an arbitrary differential equation; a rigorous mathematical condition shows which equations can have a variational formulation. On the other hand, the importance for variational principles in various fields of physics resulted in several methods to circumvent this condition and to construct another type of variational principles for any differential equation. In this paper the common origin of the considered methods is investigated, and a generalized Hamiltonian formalism is formulated. Additionally, constructive algorithms are given by different methods to construct variational principles. Simple examples are presented to make construction methods more transparent: several Lagrangians are constructed for the different forms of the Maxwell equations and for the extended heat conduction equation.     

Hamiltonian formulation of the modified Hasegawa–Mima equation

The structure of chaotic magnetic field lines in a tokamak withexternal nonsymmetric magnetic perturbations

We consider the effects of external nonsymmetric magnetostatic perturbations caused by resonant helical windings and a chaotic magnetic limiter on the plasma confined in a tokamak. The main purpose of both types of perturbation is to create a region in which field lines are chaotic in the Lagrangian sense: two initially nearby field lines diverge exponentially through many turns around the tokamak. The equilibrium field is obtained from the equations of magneto-hydrodynamic equilibrium written down in a polar toroidal coordinate system. The magnetic fields generated by the resonant helical windings and the chaotic magnetic limiter are obtained through an analytical solution of Laplace equation. The magnetic field line equations are integrated to give a Hamiltonian mapping of field lines that we use to characterize the structure of chaotic field lines. In the case of resonant windings, we obtained the map by both numerical integration and a Hamiltonian formulation. For a chaotic limiter, we analytically derived a symplectic map by using a Hamiltonian formulation

Theory of the anomalous Hall effect in a semiconductor under uniaxial stress

By including spin orbit dependent contributions, an effective conduction band Hamiltonian for a two band semiconductor is calculated. In doing so we use the band structure of a sample deformed by uniaxial stress. The equations of motion for position and momentum are calculated employing the effective Hamiltonian. With the help of the Boltzmann equation the magnetization-dependent (anomalous) Hall effect is worked out in the case of uniaxial stress on the sample.     

On the τ-function of the Painlevé equations

Concerning the Hamiltonian structure associated with Painlevé equations, we define the τ-function related to a Hamiltonian and show that the correlation function given in the study of the two-dimensional Ising model is a τ-function for the third Painlevé equation. The list of the Hamiltonians which are polynomials in the two canonical variables is given and we prove that the τ-function related to each of them is holomorphic.     

Diffusion Dynamics of Classical Systems Driven by an Oscillatory Force

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions to a kinetic equation describing the evolution of particles subject to the sum of a fixed, confining, Hamiltonian, and a small time-oscillating perturbation. Additionally, the equation involves an interaction operator which projects the distribution function onto functions of the fixed Hamiltonian. The paper aims at providing a classical counterpart to the derivation of rate equations from the atomic Bloch equations. Here, the homogenization procedure leads to a diffusion equation in the energy variable. The presence of the interaction operator regularizes the limit process and leads to finite diffusion coefficients. AMS Subject classification: 74Q10, 35Q99, 35B25, 82C70     

The almost periodic solutions to the equations of the KdV hierarchy

The Milne equation is used as the auxiliary equation instead of the usual Schrödinger equation, when the almost periodic solutions of the KdV hierarchy are looked for. Its almost periodic solution is found for the finite band (gap) potential and its time dependence is determined in the general case, provided the potential satisfies the KdV equations. Further investigated problems are: trace formulas and their applications, the Bloch functions, conserved quantities, the Poisson brackets and the Hamiltonian system.
