Weak periodic shift operator and generalized-periodic motions

We introduce the notions of a weak periodic system and its generalized-periodic motions. Such systems include systems generated by ordinary differential equations, equations with retarded argument, Volterra type equations, etc. We present a criterion for the existence of generalized-periodic motions and establish their main properties.     

On generalized-periodic solutions of nonautonomous differential inclusions

We introduce the notion of a generalized-periodic solution of a classical nonautonomous differential inclusion with periodic right-hand side. We show that the existence of a bounded solution implies the existence of a generalized-periodic solution, and vice versa.     

Stochastic analysis, rough path analysis and fractional Brownian motions

 In this paper we show, by using dyadic approximations, the existence of a geometric rough path associated with a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter greater than 1/4. Using the integral representation of fractional Brownian motions, we furthermore obtain a Skohorod integral representation of the geometric rough path we constructed. By the results in [Ly1], a stochastic integration theory may be established for fractional Brownian motions, and strong solutions and a Wong-Zakai type limit theorem for stochastic differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motions can be deduced accordingly. The method can actually be applied to a larger class of Gaussian processes with covariance functions satisfying a simple decay condition.

The Euler-Jacobi-Lie integrability theorem

This paper addresses a class of problems associated with the conditions for exact integrability of systems of ordinary differential equations expressed in terms of the properties of tensor invariants. The general theorem of integrability of the system of n differential equations is proved, which admits n ? 2 independent symmetry fields and an invariant volume n-form (integral invariant). General results are applied to the study of steady motions of a continuum with infinite conductivity.     

The Bernoulli Integral for a Certain Class of Non‐Stationary Viscous Vortical Flows of Incompressible Fluid

It has been shown in our paper [1] that there is a wide class of 3D motions of incompressible viscous fluid which can be described by one scalar function dabbed the quasi‐potential. This class of fluid flows is characterized by three‐component velocity field having two‐component vorticity field; both these fields can depend of all three spatial variables and time, in general. Governing equations for the quasi‐potential have been derived and simple illustrative example of 3D flow has been presented. Here, we derive the Bernoulli integral for that class of flows and compare it against the known Bernoulli integrals for the potential flows or 2D stationary vortical flows of inviscid fluid. We show that the Bernoulli integral for this class of fluid motion possesses unusual features: it is valid for the vortical nonstationary motions of a viscous incompressible fluid. We present a new very nontrivial analytical example of 3D flow with two‐component vorticity which hardly can be obtained by any of known methods. In the last section, we suggest a generalization of the developed concept which allows one to describe a certain class of 3D flows with the 3D vorticity.     

Steady motions and integral manifolds of systems with quadratic integrals

An investigation is made of conservative systems with an additional integral of motion which is quadratic in the velocity. A method which takes into account the specific features of the mechanical problems is proposed to describe steady motions and integral surfaces in phase space. As an example, a non-holonomic problem, involving the motion of a rigid body carrying a gyroscope is considered.     

Controllability and stabilization of programmed motions of reversible mechanical and electromechanical systems

Problems of controllability and methods of stabilizing programmed motions of a large class of mechanical and electromechanical systems which are reversible with respect to the control are considered. Criteria of the controllability and stabilizability of reversible systems are obtained. Programmed motions and algorithms of programmed control are designed in analytical form and algorithms of programmed motions for non-linear reversible systems are synthesized.     

A strong approximation for double subfractional integrals

A Riemann–Stieltjes integral strong approximation to double Stratonovich integrals with respect to odd and even fractional Brownian motions is considered. We prove the convergence in quadratic mean, uniformly on compact time intervals, of the ordinary double integral process obtained by linear interpolation of the odd and even fractional Brownian motions, to the double Stratonovich integral. The deterministic integrands are continuous or are given by bimeasures.     

Solutions to BSDEs driven by both standard and fractional Brownian motions

The backward stochastic differential equations driven by both standard and fractional Brownian motions (or, in short, SFBSDE) are studied. A Wick-Itô stochastic integral for a fractional Brownian motion is adopted. The fractional Itô formula for the standard and fractional Brownian motions is provided. Introducing the concept of the quasi-conditional expectation, we study some its properties. Using the quasi-conditional expectation, we also discuss the existence and uniqueness of solutions to general SFBSDEs, where a fixed point principle is employed. Moreover, solutions to linear SFBSDEs are investigated. Finally, an explicit solution to a class of linear SFBSDEs is found.     

The construction of Poincaré-Chetayevand Smale bifurcation diagrams for conservative non-holonomic systems with symmetry

The problem of the existence of first integrals which are linear functions of the generalized velocities (momenta and quasi-velocities) is discussed for conservative non-holonomic Chaplygin systems with symmetry, as well as methods for investigating the existence, stability, and bifurcation of the steady motions of such systems. These methods are based on the classical methods of Routh-Salvadori, Poincaré-Chetayev, and Smale, but unlike the latter they do not require a knowledge of the explicit form of the linear integrals. The general conclusions are illustrated by the example of the problem of an ellipsoid of revolution moving on an absolutely rough horizontal surface. It is shown how in this case numerical techniques can be used to construct the Poincaré-Chetayev diagram — a surface in the space of generalized coordinates and constants of linear first integrals corresponding to motions in which the velocities of the non-cyclic coordinates vanish, while those of the cyclic coordinates are constant, and the Smale diagram — a surface in the space of constants of linear first integrals and the energy integral corresponding to these motions.     

Parabolic equations related to curve motion

We study curve motions based on differential equations. Curve motion equations are classified into two types: adaptive equations (which depend on the choice of coordinate systems) and non-adaptive equations. Examples from both types of equations are studied, and the global existence for these equations is proved based on integral estimates.     

Parametric control of the motions of non-linear oscillatory systems

A new class of control and optimization problems for the motions of oscillatory systems, utilizing adjustable variation of the parameters, is considered. Forms of the equations of motion are proposed suitable for the use of asymptotic methods of non-linear mechanics and optimal control. The basic control modes are investigated: by bang-bang-type variation of the acceleration, velocity or the value of a parameter within relatively narrow limits. Approximate time-optimal and time-quasi-optimal control laws are constructed for non-linear oscillatory systems with regulated relative equilibrium position and stiffness. Some interesting features of the motions are observed and discussed.     

Weierstrass integrability of differential equations

The integrability problem consists of finding the class of functions a first integral of a given planar polynomial differential system must belong to. We recall the characterization of systems which admit an elementary or Liouvillian first integral. We define Weierstrass integrability and we determine some Weierstrass integrable systems which are Liouvillian integrable. Inside this new class of integrable systems there are non-Liouvillian integrable systems.     

On a Class of Systems of Linear and Nonlinear Fredholm Integral Equations of the Third Kind with Multipoint Singularities

Based on a new approach, we show that finding solutions for a class of systems of linear (respectively, nonlinear) Fredholm integral equations of the third kind with multipoint singularities is equivalent to finding solutions of systems of linear (respectively, nonlinear) Fredholm integral equations of the second kind with additional conditions. We study the existence, nonexistence, uniqueness, and nonuniqueness of solutions for this class of systems of Fredholm integral equations of the third kind with multipoint singularities.     

On a method of solving dual integral equations : PMM vol. 37, n6, 1973, pp. 1087–1097

We expound a method of reducing a class of dual integral equations which find important practical application to infinite algebraic systems of the first kind. The latter system can be reduced to the systems of the second kind by exact inversion of the principal singular part, and the second kind systems can be solved using the method of consecutive approximations [1–6], The dual integral equations generated by the Kontorovich-Lebedev and Mehler-Fock integral transforms are considered as examples as well as the problems of torsion of a truncated elastic sphere by a punch and that of a circular crack in an elastic space.     

The Moving-Frame Method for the Iterated-Integrals Signature: Orthogonal Invariants

Geometric, robust-to-noise features of curves in Euclidean space are of great interest for various applications such as machine learning and image analysis. We apply Fels–Olver’s moving-frame method (for geometric features) paired with the log-signature transform (for robust features) to construct a set of integral invariants under rigid motions for curves in \({\mathbb {R}}^d\) from the iterated-integrals signature. In particular, we show that one can algorithmically construct a set of invariants that characterize the equivalence class of the truncated iterated-integrals signature under orthogonal transformations, which yields a characterization of a curve in \({\mathbb {R}}^d\) under rigid motions (and tree-like extensions) and an explicit method to compare curves up to these transformations.

     

Solutions to systems of linear Fredholm integral equations of the third kind with multipoint singularities

A new approach is used to show that the solution for one class of systems of linear Fredholm integral equations of the third kind with multipoint singularities is equivalent to the solution of systems of linear Fredholm integral equations of the second kind with additional conditions. The existence, nonexistence, uniqueness, and nonuniqueness of solutions to systems of linear Fredholm integral equations of the third kind with multipoint singularities are analyzed.     

Two-parameter diffusion processes and martingales

We introduce a class of two-parameter processes which are diffusions on each coordinate and satisfy a particular Markov property related to the partial ordering in R²₊. These processes can be expressed as solutions of some stochastic integral equations driven by a two-parameter Wiener process and two families of ordinary Brownian motions. This result is based on a characterization of two-parameter martingales with orthogonal increments.     

Separation of variables in the generalized 4th Appelrot class. II. Real solutions

We continue the analytical solution of the integrable system with two degrees of freedom arising as the generalization of the 4th Appelrot class of motions of the Kowalevski top for the case of two constant force fields [Kharlamov, RCD, vol. 10, no. 4]. The separated variables found in [Kharlamov, RCD, vol. 12, no. 3] are complex in the most part of the integral constants plane. Here we present the real separating variables and obtain the algebraic expressions for the initial Euler-Poisson variables. The finite algorithm of establishing the topology of regular integral manifolds is described. The article straightforwardly refers to some formulas from [Kharlamov, RCD, vol. 12, no. 3].     

On the Optimal Stabilisation for a set of Programmed Motions of the Bilinear Control System

During recent years there has been considerable interest in using bilinear systems [1, 2] as mathematical models to represent the dynamic behavior of a wide class of engineering, biological and economic systems. Moreover, there are some methods [3] which may approximate nonlinear control systems by bilinear systems. For the first time Zubov has proposed a method of stabilization control synthesis for a set of programmed motions in linear systems [4]. In papers [5, 6] this method has been developed and used to solve the same problem for bilinear systems. In the present paper the following problems are considered. First, synthesis of nonlinear control as feedback under which the bilinear control system has a given set of programmed and asymptotic stable motions. Because this control is not unique, the second problem concerns optimal stabilization. In this paper a method for the design of nonlinear optimal control is suggested. This control is constructed in the form of a convergent series. The theorem on the sufficient conditions to solve this problem is represented.
