We study dynamical systems which admit action-angle variables at leading order which are subject to nearly resonant perturbations. If the frequencies characterizing the unperturbed system are not in resonance, the long-term dynamical evolution may be integrated by orbit-averaging over the high-frequency angles, thereby evolving the orbit-averaged effect of the perturbations. It is well known that such integrators may be constructed via a canonical transformation, which eliminates the high frequency variables from the orbit-averaged quantities. An example of this algorithm in celestial mechanics is the von Zeipel transformation. However if the perturbations are inside or close to a resonance, i.e. the frequencies of the unperturbed system are commensurate, these canonical transformations are subject to divergences. We introduce a canonical transformation which eliminates the high frequency phase variables in the Hamiltonian without encountering divergences. This leads to a well-behaved symplectic integrator. We demonstrate the algorithm through two examples: a resonantly perturbed harmonic oscillator and the gravitational three-body problem in mean motion resonance.

A system of linearly coupled quantum harmonic oscillators can be diagonalized when the system is dynamically stable using a Bogoliubov canonical transformation. However, this is just a particular case of more general canonical transformations that ca n be performed even when the system is dynamically unstable. Specific canonical transformations can transform a quadratic Hamiltonian into a normal form, which greatly helps to elucidate the underlying physics of the system. Here, we provide a self-contained review of the normal form of a quadratic Hamiltonian as well as step-by-step instructions to construct the corresponding canonical transformation for the most general case. Among other examples, we show how the standard two-mode Hamiltonian with a quadratic position coupling presents, in the stability diagram, all the possible normal forms corresponding to different types of dynamical instabilities.
Primordial cosmological perturbations are the seeds that were cultivated by inflation and the succeeding dynamical processes, eventually leading to the current Universe. In this work, we investigate the behavior of the gauge-invariant scalar and tens or perturbations under the general extended disformal transformation, namely, $g_{mu u} rightarrow A(X,Y,Z)g_{mu u} + Phi_muPhi_ u$, where $X equiv -tfrac{1}{2}phi^{;mu}phi_{;mu}, Y equiv phi^{;mu}X_{;mu}, Z equiv X^{;mu}X_{;mu} $ and $Phi_mu equiv Cphi_{;mu} + DX_{;mu}$, with $C$ and $D$ being a general functional of $(phi,X,Y,Z)$. We find that the tensor perturbation is invariant under this transformation. On the other hand, the scalar curvature perturbation receives a correction due the conformal term only; it is independent of the disformal term at least up to linear order. Within the framework of the full Horndeski theory, the correction terms turn out to depend linearly on the gauge-invariant comoving density perturbation and the first time-derivative thereof. In the superhorizon limit, all these correction terms vanish, leaving only the original scalar curvature perturbation. In other words, it is invariant under the general extended disformal transformation in the superhorizon limit, in the context of full Horndeski theory. Our work encompasses a chain of research studies on the transformation or invariance of the primordial cosmological perturbations, generalizing their results under our general extended disformal transformation.
We construct explicitly the canonical transformation that controls the full dependence (local and non-local) of the vertex functional of a Yang-Mills theory on a background field. After showing that the canonical transformation found is nothing but a direct field-theoretic generalization of the Lie transform of classical analytical mechanics, we comment on a number of possible applications, and in particular the non perturbative implementation of the background field method on the lattice, the background field formulation of the two particle irreducible formalism, and, finally, the formulation of the Schwinger-Dyson series in the presence of topologically non-trivial configurations.
Light propagation on a two-dimensional curved surface embedded in a three-dimensional space has attracted increasing attention as an analog model of four-dimensional curved spacetime in laboratory. Despite recent developments in modern cosmology on t he dynamics and evolution of the universe, investigation of nonlinear dynamics of light in non-Euclidean geometry is still scarce and remains challenging. Here, we study classical and wave chaotic dynamics on a family of surfaces of revolution by considering its equivalent conformally transformed flat billiard, with nonuniform distribution of refractive index. This equivalence is established by showing how these two systems have the same equations and the same dynamics. By exploring the Poincar{e} surface of section, the Lyapunov exponent and the statistics of eigenmodes and eigenfrequency spectrum in the transformed inhomogeneous table billiard, we find that the degree of chaos is fully controlled by a single geometric parameter of the curved surface. A simple interpretation of our findings in transformed billiards, the fictitious force, allows to extend our prediction to other class of curved surfaces. This powerful analogy between two a prior unrelated systems not only brings forward a novel approach to control the degree of chaos, but also provides potentialities for further studies and applications in various fields, such as billiards design, optical fibers, or laser microcavities.

I consider the problem of weakly nonlinear stability of three-dimensional parity-invariant magnetohydrodynamic systems to perturbations, involving large scales. I assume that the MHD state, the stability of which I investigate, does not involve large spatio-temporal scales, and it is stable to perturbations involving the same small spatial scales, as the perturbed MHD state. Mean-field equations, which I derive for the perturbation using asymptotic techniques for multiscale systems, are a generalization of the standard equations of magnetohydrodynamics (the Navier-Stokes equation with the Lorentz force and the magnetic induction equation). In them, the operator of combined eddy diffusivity emerges, which is in general anisotropic and not necessarily negatively defined, and new quadratic terms, analogous to the ones describing advection. A method for efficient computation of coefficients of the eddy diffusivity tensor and eddy advection terms in the mean-field equations is proposed.
