The Jacobi-Maupertuis Principle in Variational Integrators
In this paper, we develop a hybrid variational integrator based on the Jacobi-Maupertuis Principle of Least Action. The Jacobi-Maupertuis principle states that for a mechanical system with total energy E and potential energy V{q), the curve traced out by the system on a constant energy surface minimizes the action given by / y^2{E — V{q))ds where ds is the line element on the constant energy su...
متن کاملFinite-element discretization of static Hamilton-Jacobi equations based on a local variational principle
We propose a linear finite-element discretization of Dirichlet problems for static Hamilton–Jacobi equations on unstructured triangulations. The discretization is based on simplified localized Dirichlet problems that are solved by a local variational principle. It generalizes several approaches known in the literature and allows for a simple and transparent convergence theory. In this paper the...
متن کاملA variational principle for nonlinear transport equations
We verify -after appropriate modificationsan old conjecture of Brezis-Ekeland [3] concerning the feasibility of a global and variational approach to the problems of existence and uniqueness of solutions of non-linear transport equations, which do not normally fit in an Euler-Lagrange framework. Our method is based on a concept of “anti-self duality” that seems to be inherent in many problems, i...
متن کامل$(varphi_1, varphi_2)$-variational principle
In this paper we prove that if $X $ is a Banach space, then for every lower semi-continuous bounded below function $f, $ there exists a $left(varphi_1, varphi_2right)$-convex function $g, $ with arbitrarily small norm, such that $f + g $ attains its strong minimum on $X. $ This result extends some of the well-known varitional principles as that of Ekeland [On the variational principle, J. Ma...
متن کاملA Comparison Principle for Hamilton-jacobi Equations with Discontinuous Hamiltonians
We show a comparison principle for viscosity superand subsolutions to Hamilton-Jacobi equations with discontinuous Hamiltonians. The key point is that the Hamiltonian depends upon u and has a special structure. The supersolution must enjoy some additional regularity.
