A degenerate dynamical system is characterized by a state-dependent multiplier of the time derivative of the state in the time evolution equation. It can give rise to Hamiltonian systems whose symplectic structure possesses a non-constant rank throughout the phase space. Around points where the multiplier becomes singular, flow can experience abrupt and irreversible changes. We introduce a topological index for degenerate dynamical systems around these {\it degeneracy points} and show that it…

Geometric Structures Generated by the Same Dynamics. Recent Results and Challenges

The main contribution of this review is to show some relevant relationships between three geometric structures on a connected Lie group G, generated by the same dynamics. Namely, Linear Control…

Classification of Codimension-1 Singular Bifurcations in Low-Dimensional DAEs

The study of bifurcations of differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) is the topic of interest for many applied sciences, such as electrical engineering, robotics, etc. While some of them were…

Degenerate dynamical systems

Dynamical systems, whose symplectic structure degenerates, becoming noninvertible at some points along the orbits, are analyzed. It is shown that for systems with a finite number of degrees of…

A degenerate dynamical system is characterized by a symplectic structure whose rank is not constant throughout phase space. Its phase space is divided into causally disconnected, nonoverlapping…

On singular equilibria of index-1 DAEs

Some qualitative properties of singular equilibria arising in semiexplicit index-1 differential-algebraic equations are discussed in this paper. We extend a taxonomy of singularities from index-0…

Quantum mechanics for multivalued Hamiltonians.

It is shown that the path integral automatically picks up a unique combination of the branch Hamiltonians, which is a natural generalization of the Brouwer degree of the Legendre map.

Classical time crystals.

This work considers the possibility that classical dynamical systems display motion in their lowest-energy state, forming a time analogue of crystalline spatial order, and exhibits models of that kind, including a model with traveling density waves.
