We construct via the Lie–Trotter formula some explicit Poisson integrators for the Maxwell–Bloch equations from laser-matter dynamics, the Euler equations of the free rigid body and the equations of the rigid body with a spinning rotor.

AbstractSome supplementary results and interpretations on the theory of Hall MHD solitons (McKenzie and Doyle 2002 Phys. Plasmas9, 55) are presented. It is shown that the Hall MHD soliton reduces, in the appropriate limit, to an electrostatic ion–cyclotron soliton. It is also shown how the dynamical equations governing the Hall MHD soliton can be obtained from a Hamiltonian H. Soliton solutions correspond to H = 0, periodic solutions to H < 0 and rotation-type solutions to H >0. Possible applications are discussed. A non-canonical Hamiltonian picture is developed and compared to the well-known example of a free rigid body.

In this article, we systemize the results on the study of plane-parallel motion equations of fixed rigid body-pendulum which is placed in certain nonconserva- tive force field. In parallel, we consider the problem of a plane-parallel motion of a free rigid body which is also placed in a similar force field. Thus, the non-conservative tracking force operates onto this body. That force forces the value of certain point of a body to be constant for all the time of a motion, which means the existence of nonintegrable servoconstraint in the system. The obtained results are systematized and served in the invariant form. We also show the nontrivial topological and mechanical analogies.
