This chapter defines the conserved quantities associated with an isolated dynamical system, that is, the quantities which remain constant during the motion of the system. The law of momentum conservation follows directly from Newton’s third law. The superposition principle for forces allows Newton’s law of motion for a body Pa acted on by other bodies Pa′ in an inertial Cartesian frame S. The law of angular momentum conservation holds if the forces acting on the elements of the system depend only on the separation of the elements. Finally, the conservation of total energy requires in addition that the forces be derivable from a potential.

We investigate various aspects of a geometric flow defined using the Bach tensor. First, using a well-known split of the Bach tensor components for (2, 2) unwarped product manifolds, we solve the Bach flow equations for typical examples of product manifolds like S2 × S2, R2 × S2. In addition, we obtain the fixed-point condition for general (2, 2) manifolds and solve it for a restricted case. Next, we consider warped manifolds. For Bach flows on a special class of asymmetrically warped 4-manifolds, we reduce the flow equations to a first-order dynamical system, which is solved exactly to find the flow characteristics. We compare our results for Bach flow with those for Ricci flow and discuss the differences qualitatively. Finally, we conclude by mentioning possible directions for future work.

In this note we present a unifying approach for two classes of first order partial differential equations: we introduce the notion of Lagrangian representation in the settings of continuity equation and scalar conservation laws. This yields, on the one hand, the uniqueness of weak solutions to transport equation driven by a two dimensional BV nearly incompressible vector field. On the other hand, it is proved that the entropy dissipation measure for scalar conservation laws in one space dimension is concentrated on countably many Lipschitz curves.

The standard lore in noncommutative physics is the use of first order variational description of a dynamical system to probe the space noncommutativity and its consequences in the dynamics in phase space. As the ultimate goal is to understand the inherent space noncommutativity, we propose a variational principle for noncommutative dynamical systems in configuration space, based on results of our previous work [18]. We hope that this variational formulation in configuration space can be of help to elucidate the definition of some global and dynamical properties of classical and quantum noncommutative space.

AbstractWe study the Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook (BGK) approximation to first-order scalar conservation laws with a flux which is discontinuous in the space variable. We show that the Cauchy problem for the BGK approximation is well posed and that, as the relaxation parameter tends to 0, it converges to the (entropy) solution of the limit problem.

In this paper we study closed sets having a neighbourhood with compact closure which are positively asymptotically stable under a flow on a metric space X. For an understanding of this and the rest of the introduction it is sufficient for the reader to have in mind as an example of a flow a system of first order, autonomous ordinary differential equations describing mathematically a time-independent physical system; in short a dynamical system. In a flow a set M is positively stable if the trajectories through all points sufficiently close to M remain in the future in a given neighbourhood of M. The set M is positively asymptotically stable if it is positively stable and, in addition, trajectories through all points of some neighbourhood of M approach M in the future.

Abstract In this paper we analyze the sensitivity of solutions to a nonlinear singularly perturbed dynamical system based on different rewriting into a System of the First Order Differential Equations to a numerical scheme. Numerical simulations of the solutions use numerical methods implemented in MATLAB.

In this paper we give a criterion to discriminate the entropy solution to quasi-linear equations of first order among weak solutions. This uniqueness statement is a generalization of Oleinik's criterion, which makes reference to the measure of the increasing character of weak solutions. The link between Oleinik's criterion and the entropy condition due to Kruzhkov is also clarified. An application of this analysis to the convergence of the particle method for conservation laws is also given by using the Filippov characteristics.
