The parameter dependence of the various attractive solutions of the three variable nonlinear Lorenz equations is studied as a function of r, the normalized Rayleigh number, and of σ, the Prandtl number. Previous work, either for fixed σ and all r or along σ ∝ r and [Formula: see text], is extended to the entire (r, σ) parameter plane. An onion-like periodic pattern is found which is due to the alternating stability of symmetric and nonsymmetric periodic orbits. This periodic pattern is explained by considering non-trivial limits of large r and σ and thus interpolating between the above mentioned cases. The mathematical analysis uses Airy functions as introduced in previous work, but instead of concentrating on the Lorenz map we analyze the trajectories in full phase space. The periodicity of the Airy function allows to calculate analytically the periodic onion structure in the (r, σ)-plane. Previous observations about sequences of bifurcations are confirmed, and more details regarding their symmetry are reported.

This chapter explains in detail the current Hamiltonian formulation of SD, and the concept of Linking Theory of which (GR) and SD are two complementary gauge-fixings. The physical degrees of freedom of SD are identified, the simple way in which it solves the problem of time and the problem of observables in quantum gravity are explained, and the solution to the problem of constructing a spacetime slab from a solution of SD (and the related definition of physical rods and clocks) is described. Furthermore, the canonical way of coupling matter to SD is introduced, together with the operational definition of four-dimensional line element as an effective background for matter fields. The chapter concludes with two ‘structural’ results obtained in the attempt of finding a construction principle for SD: the concept of ‘symmetry doubling’, related to the BRST formulation of the theory, and the idea of ‘conformogeometrodynamics regained’, that is, to derive the theory as the unique one in the extended phase space of GR that realizes the symmetry doubling idea.

This chapter examines the structure of the phase space of an integrable system as being constructed from invariant tori using the Arnold–Liouville integrability theorem, and periodic flow and ergodic flow are investigated using action-angle theory. Time-dependent mechanics is formulated by extending the symplectic structure to a contact structure in an extended phase space before it is shown that mechanics has a natural setting on a jet bundle. The chapter then describes phase space of integrable systems and how tori behave when time-dependent dynamics occurs. Adiabatic invariance is discussed, as well as slow and fast Hamiltonian systems, the Hannay angle and counter adiabatic terms. In addition, the chapter discusses foliation, resonant tori, non-resonant tori, contact structures, Pfaffian forms, jet manifolds and Stokes’s theorem.

ABSTRACT Symplectic algorithms are widely used for long-term integration of astrophysical problems. However, this technique can only be easily constructed for separable Hamiltonian, as preserving the phase-space structure. Recently, for inseparable Hamiltonian, the fourth-order extended phase-space explicit symplectic-like methods have been developed by using the Yoshida’s triple product with a mid-point map, where the algorithm is more effective, stable and also more accurate, compared with the sequent permutations of momenta and position coordinates, especially for some chaotic case. However, it has been found that, for the cases such as with chaotic orbits of spinning compact binary or circular restricted three-body system, it may cause secular drift in energy error and even more the computation break down. To solve this problem, we have made further improvement on the mid-point map with a momentum-scaling correction, which turns out to behave more stably in long-term evolution and have smaller energy error than previous methods. In particular, it could obtain a comparable phase-space distance as computing from the eighth-order Runge–Kutta method with the same time-step.

We propose a numerical scheme to solve the semiclassical Vlasov–Maxwell equations for electrons with spin. The electron gas is described by a distribution function $f(t,{\boldsymbol x},{{{\boldsymbol p}}}, {\boldsymbol s})$ that evolves in an extended 9-dimensional phase space $({\boldsymbol x},{{{\boldsymbol p}}}, {\boldsymbol s})$ , where $\boldsymbol s$ represents the spin vector. Using suitable approximations and symmetries, the extended phase space can be reduced to five dimensions: $(x,{{p_x}}, {\boldsymbol s})$ . It can be shown that the spin Vlasov–Maxwell equations enjoy a Hamiltonian structure that motivates the use of the recently developed geometric particle-in-cell (PIC) methods. Here, the geometric PIC approach is generalized to the case of electrons with spin. Total energy conservation is very well satisfied, with a relative error below $0.05\,\%$ . As a relevant example, we study the stimulated Raman scattering of an electromagnetic wave interacting with an underdense plasma, where the electrons are partially or fully spin polarized. It is shown that the Raman instability is very effective in destroying the electron polarization.

Turnover theory (of the escape Γ) à la Grabert will be based solely on Kramers' Fokker–Planck equation for activated rate processes. No recourse to a microscope model or Langevin dynamics will be made. Apart from the unstable mode energy E, the analysis requires new theoretical concepts such as a constrained Gaussian transformation (CGT) and dynamically extended phase space (EPS).

Here we use the extended phase space formulation of quantum statistical mechanics proposed in an earlier work to define an extended lagrangian for Wigner's functions (WFs). The extended action defined by this lagrangian is a function of ordinary phase space variables. The reality condition of WFs is employed to quantize the extended action. The energy quantization is obtained as a direct consequence of the quantized action. The technique is applied to find the energy states of harmonic oscillator, particle in the box, and hydrogen atom as the illustrative examples.

Space Description

The system of a two-dimensional damped harmonic oscillator is revisited in the extended phase space. It is an old problem that has already been addressed by many authors that we present here with some fresh points of view and carry on a whole discussion. We show that the system is singular. The classical Hamiltonian is proportional to the first-class constraint. We pursue with the Dirac’s canonical quantization procedure by fixing the gauge and provide a reduced phase space description of the system. As a result, the quantum system is simply modeled by the original quantum Hamiltonian.
