A geometric approach to contact Hamiltonians and contact Hamilton–Jacobi theory

K Grabowska, J Grabowski - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
We propose a novel approach to contact Hamiltonian mechanics which, in contrast to the
one dominating in the literature, serves also for non-trivial contact structures. In this …

A review on coisotropic reduction in symplectic, cosympletic, contact and co-contact Hamiltonian systems

M de León, R Izquierdo - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
In this paper we study coisotropic reduction in different types of dynamics according to the
geometry of the corresponding phase space. The relevance of coisotropic reduction is …

Reductions: precontact versus presymplectic

K Grabowska, J Grabowski - Annali di Matematica Pura ed Applicata (1923 …, 2023 - Springer
We show that contact reductions can be described in terms of symplectic reductions in the
traditional Marsden–Weinstein–Meyer as well as the constant rank picture. The point is that …

Contact geometric mechanics: the Tulczyjew triples

K Grabowska, J Grabowski - arXiv preprint arXiv:2209.03154, 2022 - arxiv.org
We propose a generalization of the classical Tulczyjew triple as a geometric tool in
Hamiltonian and Lagrangian formalisms which serves for contact manifolds. The role of the …

[PDF][PDF] Contact hamiltonian systems

ML Valcázar - 2022 - icmat.es
Contact Hamiltonian systems are a generalization of the Hamiltonian systems of classical
mechanics. The action is added as an extra variable in phase space, and symplectic …

Implicit contact dynamics and Hamilton-Jacobi theory

O Esen, ML Valcázar, M de León, C Sardón - Differential Geometry and its …, 2023 - Elsevier
In this paper, we introduce implicit Hamiltonian dynamics in the framework of contact
geometry in two different ways: first, we introduce classical implicit Hamiltonian dynamics on …

On locally conformally cosymplectic Hamiltonian dynamics and Hamilton–Jacobi theory

B Ateşli, O Esen, M de León… - Journal of Physics A …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
Cosymplectic geometry has been proven to be a very useful geometric background to

A Discrete Hamilton--Jacobi Theory for Contact Hamiltonian Dynamics

O Esen, C Sardón, M Zajac - arXiv preprint arXiv:2209.05922, 2022 - arxiv.org
In this paper, we propose a discrete Hamilton--Jacobi theory for (discrete) Hamiltonian
dynamics defined on a (discrete) contact manifold. To this end, we first provide a novel …
