Structure-Preserving Reduced Basis Methods For Poisson Systems

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Cecilia Pagliantini

We develop structure-preserving reduced basis methods for a large class of nondissipative problems by resorting to their formulation as Hamiltonian dynamical systems. With this perspective, the phase space is naturally endowed with a Poisson manifold struc ...

The tropical momentum map: a classification of toric log symplectic manifolds

Tudor Ratiu

We give a generalization of toric symplectic geometry to Poisson manifolds which are symplectic away from a collection of hypersurfaces forming a normal crossing configuration. We introduce the tropical momentum map, which takes values in a generalization ...

Extensions of Lie-Rinehart algebras and cotangent bundle reduction

Tudor Ratiu

Let Q denote a smooth manifold acted upon smoothly by a Lie group G. The G-action lifts to an action on the total space TQ of the cotangent bundle of Q and hence on the standard symplectic Poisson algebra of smooth functions on TQ. The Poisson algebra of ...

Gauge Transformations, Twisted Poisson Brackets and Hamiltonization of Nonholonomic Systems

In this paper we study the problem of Hamiltonization of nonholonomic systems from a geometric point of view. We use gauge transformations by 2-forms (in the sense of evera and Weinstein in Progr Theoret Phys Suppl 144:145 154 2001) to construct different ...

Higher order Lagrange-Poincar, and Hamilton-Poincar, reductions

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz

Motivated by the problem of longitudinal data assimilation, e.g., in the registration of a sequence of images, we develop the higher-order framework for Lagrangian and Hamiltonian reduction by symmetry in geometric mechanics. In particular, we obtain the r ...

Dirac Group(oid)s and Their Homogeneous Spaces

Madeleine Jotz

A theorem of Drinfel'd (Drinfel'd (1993)) classifies the Poisson homogeneous spaces of a Poisson Lie group (G,πG) via a special class of Lagrangian subalgebras of the Drinfel'd double of its Lie bialgebra. This result is extended in Liu et al. (1998) to a ...

Dirac Lie Groups, Dirac Homogeneous Spaces and the Theorem of Drinfeld

Madeleine Jotz

The notions of Poisson Lie group and Poisson homogeneous space are extended to the Dirac category. The theorem of Drinfeld on the one-to-one correspondence between Poisson homogeneous spaces of a Poisson Lie group and a special class of Lagrangian subalgeb ...

Symmetry Reduced Dynamics of Charged Molecular Strands

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz

The equations of motion are derived for the dynamical folding of charged molecular strands (such as DNA) modeled as flexible continuous filamentary distributions of interacting rigid charge conformations. The new feature is that these equations are nonloca ...

Reduction theory for symmetry breaking with applications to nematic systems

François Gay-Balmaz, Cesare Tronci

We formulate Euler-Poincare and Lagrange-Poincare equations for systems with broken symmetry. We specialize the general theory to present explicit equations of motion for nematic systems, ranging from single nematic molecules to biaxial liquid crystals. Th ...

Geodesic Vlasov Equations And Their Integrable Moment Closures

Cesare Tronci

Various integrable geodesic flows on Lie groups are shown to arise by taking moments of a geodesic Vlasov equation on the group of canonical transformations. This was already known for both the one- and two-component Camassa-Holm systems [18, 19]. The pres ...

The geometric structure of complex fluids

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz

This paper develops the theory of affine Euler-Poincare and affine Lie-Poisson reductions and applies these processes to various examples of complex fluids, including Yang-Mills and Hall magnetohydrodynamics for fluids and superfluids, spin glasses, microf ...

The Momentum Map In Poisson Geometry

Tudor Ratiu, Juan-Pablo Ortega

Every action on a Poisson manifold by Poisson diffeomorphisms lifts to a Hamiltonian action on its symplectic groupoid which has a canonically defined momentum map. We study various properties of this momentum map as well as its use in reduction. ...

A Class of Integrable Flows on the Space of Symmetric Matrices

Tudor Ratiu

For a given skew symmetric real n x n matrix N, the bracket X, Y = XNY - YNX defines a Lie algebra structure on the space Sym(n, N) of symmetric n x n real matrices and hence a corresponding Lie-Poisson structure. The purpose of this paper is to inves ...

Affine Lie-Poisson reduction, Yang-Mills magnetohydrodynamics, and superfluids

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz

This paper develops the theory of affine Lie-Poisson reduction and applies this process to Yang-Mills and Hall magnetohydrodynamics for fluids and superfluids. As a consequence of this approach, the associated Poisson brackets are obtained by reduction of ...
