  • Geometry from Dynamics, Classical and Quantum

    by Giuseppe Marmo, Giuseppe Morandi, Alberto Ibort, José F. Cariñena ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book describes, by using elementary techniques, how some geometrical structures widely used today in many areas of physics, like symplectic, Poisson, Lagrangian, Hermitian, etc., emerge from dynamics. It is assumed that what can be accessed in actual experiences when studying a given system is just its dynamical behavior that is described by using a family of variables ("observables" of the ...

  • Chaotic Flows

    Correlation Effects, Transport, and Structures

    by Oleg G. Bakunin ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The book introduces readers to and summarizes the current ideas and theories about the basic mechanisms for transport in chaotic flows. Typically no single paradigmatic approach exists as this topic is relevant for fields as diverse as plasma physics, geophysical flows and various branches of engineering. Accordingly, the dispersion of matter in chaotic or turbulent flows is analyzed from ... Read more

  • Mathematical Models of Viscous Friction

    by Paolo Buttà, Guido Cavallaro, Carlo Marchioro ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    In this monograph we present a review of a number of recent results on the motion of a classical body immersed in an infinitely extended medium and subjected to the action of an external force. We investigate this topic in the framework of mathematical physics by focusing mainly on the class of purely Hamiltonian systems, for which very few results are available. We discuss two cases: when the ... Read more
