Uniform continuity of Hamiltonian flow
Let $h \in C^2_{\mathrm{ub}}(\mathbb{R}^{2n})$, where $C_{\mathrm{ub}}^k$ consists of $C^k$-functions that are bounded and uniformly continuous along with their derivatives up to $k$th-order.
It is ...

Hamiltonian, energy, and conservation laws of nonlinear PDEs
In many PDEs, I see the papers mention the energy of the PDE. And some papers and books mention Hamiltonians. I know that integrable systems have infinitely many conservation laws and these laws are ...

What exactly are the benefits of keeping a Hamiltonian system of equations Hamiltonian during solving or transformation?
When faced with a system of differential equations that happens to be Hamiltonian in form, or a perturbation of a Hamiltonian system, we often see in classical work a clear attempt to pursue solutions ...

Asymptotic of an integral
Let
\begin{equation*}
V(x) = -\big(2-\sin(2\pi x) - \sin(2\pi \sqrt{2}x)\big)^\gamma
\end{equation*}
for some $\gamma \in (0,1]$. Define for each $r<0$ the number
$$a_r = \min\{a>0: V(a) = ...

Constants of motion for Droop equation
There is an important ODE system in biochemistry, Droop's equations:
$$s'=1-s-\frac{sx}{a_1+s}$$
$$x'=a_2\big(1-\frac{1}{q}\big)x-x$$
$$q'=\frac{a_3s}{a_1+s}-a_2(q-1)$$
Relatively easy one finds a ...

Periodic orbit for certain Hamiltonian on the tangent bundle
In this question a nontrivial periodic orbit is a periodic orbit which is not a singular point.
Let $p: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}$ be a ...

Symplectic forms and sign of eigenvalues
This question has come out while reading J. Moser "New Aspects in the Theory of Stability
of Hamiltonian Systems". I'm particularly interested to the Appendix, where one investigates the stability of ...

Generalizing "variation of parameters"
I'm stuck on generalizing an ODE formula and could use your help!
One way to think about "variation of parameters" is that it bakes the solution $z(t)=e^{At}z_0$ of $z'=Az$ (here $z(t)\in\mathbb{R}^n$...
