Carter's constant is a nontrivial conserved quantity of motion of a particle moving in stationary axisymmetric spacetime. In the version of the theorem originally given by Carter, due to the presence of two Killing vectors, the system effectively has two degrees of freedom. We propose an extension to the first version of Carter's theorem to a system having three degrees of freedom to find two functionally independent Carter-like integrals of motion. We further generalize the theorem to a dynamical system with [Formula: see text] degrees of freedom. We further study the implications of Carter's constant to superintegrability and present a different approach to probe a superintegrable system. Our formalism gives another viewpoint to a superintegrable system using the simple observation of separable Hamiltonian according to Carter's criteria. We then give some examples by constructing some two-dimensional superintegrable systems based on this idea and also show that all three-dimensional simple classical superintegrable potentials are also Carter separable.

AbstractDynamical systems with three degrees of freedom can be reduced to the study of a four-dimensional mapping. We consider here, as a model problem, the mapping given by the following equations: We have found that as soon as b ≠ 0, i.e. even for a very weak coupling, a dynamical system with three degrees of freedom has in general either two or zero isolating integrals (besides the usual energy integral).

The focus of this article is on the investigation of a dynamical system consisting of a linear damped transverse tuned-absorber connected with a non-linear damped-spring-pendulum, in which its hanged point moves in an elliptic path. The regulating system of motion is derived using Lagrange’s equations, which is then solved analytically up to the third approximation employing the approach of multiple scales (AMS). The emerging cases of resonance are categorized according to the solvability requirements wherein the modulation equations (ME) have been found. The stability areas and the instability ones are examined utilizing the Routh–Hurwitz criteria (RHC) and analyzed in line with the solutions at the steady state. The obtained results, resonance responses, and stability regions are addressed and graphically depicted to explore the positive influence of the various inputs of the physical parameters on the rheological behavior of the inspected system. The significance of the present work stems from its numerous applications in theoretical physics and engineering.

AbstractThe properties of the characteristic curves of several families of periodic orbits, in a conservative dynamical system of two degrees of freedom, symmetric with respect to both axes, are reviewed. The two main types of families are presented. One sees that the pattern of the characteristics in the exact resonance case is similar to that of the near resonance case except for the basic characteristic . The form of the characteristics can be found theoretically by means of the second integral.
