Molecular shape effects and quantum theory

Certain features of the chemist's molecular structure model, viz. size and shape, are retrieved even in the best non-adiabatic variational calculations thus far carried out for ground states of H ₂ ⁺ and H₂. Those features do not conflict with the full symmetry of exact molecular eigenstates, once they are properly understood as correlation effects.     

Lie algebroid morphisms, Poisson sigma models, and off-shell closed gauge symmetries

Chern–Simons (CS) gauge theories in three dimensions and the Poisson sigma model (PSM) in two dimensions are examples of the same theory, if their field equations are interpreted as morphisms of Lie algebroids and their symmetries (on-shell) as homotopies of such morphisms. We point out that the (off-shell) gauge symmetries of the PSM in the literature are not globally well defined for non-parallelizable Poisson manifolds and propose a covariant definition of the off-shell gauge symmetries as left action of some finite-dimensional Lie algebroid.

Our approach allows us to avoid complications arising in the infinite-dimensional super-geometry of the BV- and AKSZ-formalism. This preprint is a starting point in a series of papers meant to introduce Yang–Mills type gauge theories of Lie algebroids, which include the standard YM theory, gerbes, and the PSM.     

Symmetry and transformation properties of iterative ordinary differential equation

Symmetries of linear iterative equations and new conditions on the infinitesimals are obtained. Regarding the expressions of the solutions in terms of the parameters of the source equation, an ansatz is made on the original parameters. We have also obtained an expression for the source parameters of the transformed equation under equivalence transformations. We conducted this work with a special emphasis on second-, third- and fourth-order equations, although some of our results are valid for equations of a general order.     

An extension of the Noether theorem: Accompanying equations possessing conservation laws

It is shown that the Noether theorem can be extended for some equations associated (accompanying) with Euler–Lagrange equation. Each symmetry of Lagrangian yields a class of accompanying equations possessing conservation law (first integral).The generalization is done for canonical Hamiltonian equations as well.

Averaging and periodic solutions in the plane and parametrically excited pendulum

We first approximate the solutions of the nonautonomous oscillating suspension point pendulum equation by the solutions of a second order autonomous differential equation. Using the strict monotonicity of the periodic solutions of the approximating equation, we prove the existence of a large number of subharmonic periodic solutions of the plane pendulum when its point of suspension is excited parametrically.     

Symmetry classification and optimal systems of a non-linear wave equation

In this paper the complete Lie group classification of a non-linear wave equation is obtained. Optimal systems and reduced equations are achieved in the case of a hyperelastic homogeneous bar with variable cross section.     

Generalized immediate exchange models and their symmetries

We reconsider the discrete dual of the immediate exchange model and define a more general class of models where mass is split, exchanged and merged. We relate the splitting process to the symmetric inclusion process via thermalization and from that obtain symmetries and self-duality for it and its generalization. We show that analogous properties hold for models where the splitting is related to the symmetric exclusion process or to independent random walkers.
