The invariant manifolds of systems with first integrals

Several additional possibilities of the Routh–Lyapunov method for isolating and analysing the stationarity sets of dynamical systems admitting of smooth first integrals are discussed. A procedure is proposed for isolating these sets together with the first integrals corresponding to the vector fields for these sets. This procedure is based on solving the stationarity equations of the family of first integrals of the problem in part of the variables and parameters occurring in this family. The effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated for two problems in the dynamics of a rigid body.     

Degenerate invariant manifolds of some completely integrable systems

We show that a large class of k degrees of freedom integrable Hamiltonian systems, the so-called Jacobi-Moser-Mumford systems, are Bott systems (this means that the regular critical points of the first integrals are nondegenerate). Thereby Fomenko's theory about classification of bifurcations of Liouville tori holds for such systems. Received March 16, 1998; in final form November 9, 1998     

Global invariant manifolds

The main result of our article is an analog of the local manifold theorem for a hyperbolic point. We give a set of sufficient conditions that ensure the existence of the global invariant manifold.

We will prove the existence of invariant curves which lie in the quaternionic Julia set of the map f_c(X)=X²+c.     

Spiralling invariant manifolds

A definition of the concept of a multidimensional spiralling manifold is studied. Manifolds of this type are shown to occur as invariant manifolds of flows containing hyperbolic restpoints with a pair of complex conjugate eigenvalues. It is shown that spiralling can be a mechanism for producing intersections of invariant manifolds.     

Hamiltonization of non-holonomic systems in the neighborhood of invariant manifolds

The problem of Hamiltonization of non-holonomic systems, both integrable and non-integrable, is considered. This question is important in the qualitative analysis of such systems and it enables one to determine possible dynamical effects. The first part of the paper is devoted to representing integrable systems in a conformally Hamiltonian form. In the second part, the existence of a conformally Hamiltonian representation in a neighborhood of a periodic solution is proved for an arbitrary (including integrable) system preserving an invariant measure. Throughout the paper, general constructions are illustrated by examples in non-holonomic mechanics.     

Center manifolds for smooth invariant manifolds

We study dynamics of flows generated by smooth vector fields in in the vicinity of an invariant and closed smooth manifold . By applying the Hadamard graph transform technique, we show that there exists an invariant manifold (called a center manifold of ) based on the information of the linearization along , which contains every locally bounded solution and is persistent under small perturbations.

     

Numerical Taylor expansions of invariant manifolds in large dynamical systems

Summary. In this paper we develop a numerical method for computing higher order local approximations of invariant manifolds, such as stable, unstable or center manifolds near steady states of a dynamical system. The underlying system is assumed to be large in the sense that a large sparse Jacobian at the equilibrium occurs, for which only a linear (black box) solver and a low dimensional invariant subspace is available, but for which methods like the QR–Algorithm are considered to be too expensive. Our method is based on an analysis of the multilinear Sylvester equations for the higher derivatives which can be solved under certain nonresonance conditions. These conditions are weaker than the standard gap conditions on the spectrum which guarantee the existence of the invariant manifold. The final algorithm requires the solution of several large linear systems with a bordered Jacobian. To these systems we apply a block elimination method recently developed by Govaerts and Pryce [12, 14]. Received March 12, 1996 / Revised version reveiced August 8, 1997     

Localization of invariant compact sets of families of discrete-time systems

The functional method of localization of invariant compact sets developed for continuous- and discrete-time dynamical systems is extended to families of discrete-time systems. Positively invariant compact sets are considered. As an example, the method is applied to the Hénon system with uncertain parameters.     

Pitchfork bifurcations of invariant manifolds

A pitchfork bifurcation of an (m−1)-dimensional invariant submanifold of a dynamical system in Rm is defined analogous to that in R. Sufficient conditions for such a bifurcation to occur are stated and existence of the bifurcated manifolds is proved under the stated hypotheses. For discrete dynamical systems, the existence of locally attracting manifolds M₊ and M₋, after the bifurcation has taken place is proved by constructing a diffeomorphism of the unstable manifold M. Techniques used for proving the theorem involve differential topology and analysis. The theorem is illustrated by means of a canonical example.     

Birth of attracting compact invariant submanifolds diffeomorphic to moment-angle manifolds in generic families of dynamics

Orbits heteroclinic to invariant manifolds

Using the theory of invariant manifolds, we give local expressions of the stable and unstable manifolds for normally hyperbolic invariant tori, and study the existence of transverse orbits heteroclinic to hyperbolic invariant tori. These extend and improve the corresponding results obtained in [3–5].Supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and Shanghai Natural Science Foundation.
