Lyapunov inequality for linear Hamiltonian systems on time scales

The principal aim of this paper is to state and prove some Lyapunov inequalities for linear Hamiltonian system on an arbitrary time scale , so that the well-known case of differential linear Hamiltonian systems and the recently developed case of discrete Hamiltonian systems are unified. Applying these inequalities, a disconjugacy criterion for Hamiltonian systems on time scales is obtained.     

The stability of linear periodic Hamiltonian systems under non-Hamiltonian perturbations

A definition of strong stability and strong instability is proposed for a linear periodic Hamiltonian system of differential equations under a given non-Hamiltonian perturbation. Such a system is subject to the action of periodic perturbations: an arbitrary Hamiltonian perturbation and a given non-Hamiltonian one. Sufficient conditions for strong stability and strong instability are established. Using the linear periodic Lagrange equations of the second kind, the effect of gyroscopic forces and specified dissipative and non-conservative perturbing forces on strong stability and strong instability is investigated on the assumption that the critical relations of combined resonances are satisfied.     

On inequalities of Lyapunov for linear Hamiltonian systems on time scales

In this paper, we establish several new Lyapunov type inequalities for linear Hamiltonian systems on an arbitrary time scale T when the end-points are not necessarily usual zeroes, but rather, generalized zeroes, which generalize and improve all related existing ones including the continuous and discrete cases.

The stability of periodic Hamiltonian systems with multiple fourth-order resonance

The problem of the stability of the periodic motion of a non-linear periodic Hamiltonian system is considered in the case of pure imaginary characteristic exponents which also satisfy several fourth-order resonance conditions. Conditions for stability and instability are formulated based on terms of the third order inclusive. Some conclusions generalize results obtained previously [1].     

Stability criteria for linear periodic impulsive Hamiltonian systems

In this paper we obtain stability criteria for linear periodic impulsive Hamiltonian systems. A Lyapunov type inequality is established. Our results improve also the ones previously obtained for systems without impulse effect.     

Titchmarsh-Sims-Weyl theory for complex Hamiltonian systems on Sturmian time scales

We study non-self-adjoint Hamiltonian systems on Sturmian time scales, defining Weyl-Sims sets, which replace the classical Weyl circles, and a matrix-valued M-function on suitable cone-shaped domains in the complex plane. Furthermore, we characterize realizations of the corresponding dynamic operator and its adjoint, and construct their resolvents. Even-order scalar equations and the Orr-Sommerfeld equation on time scales are given as examples illustrating the theory, which are new even for difference equations. These results unify previous discrete and continuous theories to dynamic equations on Sturmian time scales.

Lyapunov inequalities and stability for linear Hamiltonian systems

In this paper, we will establish several Lyapunov inequalities for linear Hamiltonian systems, which unite and generalize the most known ones. For planar linear Hamiltonian systems, the connection between Lyapunov inequalities and estimates of eigenvalues of stationary Dirac operators will be given, and some optimal stability criterion will be proved.     

Krein's formula for indefinite multipliers in linear periodic Hamiltonian systems

This paper is concerned with Hamiltonian systems of linear differential equations with periodic coefficients under a small perturbation. It is well known that Krein's formula determines the behavior of definite multipliers on the unit circle and is quite useful in studying the (strong) stability of Hamiltonian system. Our aim is to give a simple formula that determines the behavior of indefinite multipliers with two multiplicity, which is generic case. The result does not require analyticity and is proved directly. Applying this formula, we obtain instability criteria for solutions with periodic structure in nonlinear dissipative systems such as the Swift-Hohenberg equation and reaction-diffusion systems of activator-inhibitor type.
