Integrable geodesic flows of non-holonomic metrics
In the present article we show how to produce new examples of integrable dynamical systems of differential geometry origin. This is based on a construction of a canonical Hamiltonian structure for the geodesic flows of Carnot–Carathéodory metrics ([7, 17]) via the Pontryagin maximum principle. This Hamiltonian structure is achieved by introducing Lagrange multipliers bundles being the phase spa...
متن کاملAre Hamiltonian Flows Geodesic Flows?
When a Hamiltonian system has a \Kinetic + Potential" structure, the resulting ow is locally a geodesic ow. But there may be singularities of the geodesic structure, so the local structure does not always imply that the ow is globally a geodesic ow. In order for a ow to be a geodesic ow, the underlying manifold must have the structure of a unit tangent bundle. We develop homological conditions ...
متن کاملClassical and Non-Classical Representations in Physics II: Quantum Mechanics
The conceptual and formal structure of quantum mechanics is analysed from the point of view of the dynamics of distinctions, occcuring during the observation process. The Hilbert space formalism is simplified with the help of the concept of closure: closure of an eigenstate under an operator is generalized to the linear closure of a subset of states, and this is further simplified to orthogonal...
متن کاملNon-commutative Integrability, Moment Map and Geodesic Flows
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the relationship between commutative and non-commutative integrability of Hamiltonian systems and to construct new examples of integrable geodesic flows on Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we prove that the geodesic flow of the biinvariant metric on any bi-quotient of a compact Lie group is integrable in the non-commutative sense by means of polynomia...
متن کاملGeodesic Information Flows
Homogenising the availability of manually generated information in large databases has been a key challenge of medical imaging for many years. Due to the time consuming nature of manually segmenting, parcellating and localising landmarks in medical images, these sources of information tend to be scarce and limited to small, and sometimes morphologically similar, subsets of data. In this work we...
