The Hamilton-Jacobi equation revisited

A new analysis of the nature of the solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation of classical dynamics is presented based on Caratheodory’s theorem concerning canonical transformations. The special role of a principal set of solutions is stressed, and the existence of analogous results in quantum mechanics is outlined.

Phase space methods and the Hamilton-Jacobi form of dynamics

A general analysis of the Hamilton-Jacobi form of dynamics motivated by phase space methods and classical transformation theory is presented. The connection between constants of motion, symmetries, and the Hamilton-Jacobi equation is described.

迎风紧致格式求解Hamilton-Jacobi方程

基于Hamilton-Jaeobi(H-J)方程和双曲型守恒律之间的关系,将三阶和五阶迎风紧致格式推广应用于求解H-J方程,建立了高精度的H-J方程求解方法.给出了一维和二维典型数值算例的计算结果,其中包括一个平面激波作用下的Richtmyer-Meshkov界面不稳定性问题.数值试验表明,在解的光滑区域该方法具有高精度,而在导数不连续的不光滑区域也获得了比较好的分辨效果.相比于同阶精度的WENO格式,本方法具有更小的数值耗散,从而有利于多尺度复杂流动的模拟中H-J方程的求解.

Méthodes rapides et efficaces pour la résolution numérique d'équations de type Hamilton-Jacobi avec application à la simulation de feux de forêt

Cette thèse est divisée en trois chapitres. Le premier explique comment utiliser la méthode «level-set» de manière rigoureuse pour faire la simulation de feux de forêt en utilisant comme modèle physique pour la propagation le modèle de l'ellipse de Richards. Le second présente un nouveau schéma semi-implicite avec une preuve de convergence pour la solution d'une équation de type Hamilton-Jacobi anisotrope. L'avantage principal de cette méthode est qu'elle permet de réutiliser des solutions à des problèmes «proches» pour accélérer le calcul. Une autre application de ce schéma est l'homogénéisation. Le troisième chapitre montre comment utiliser les méthodes numériques des deux premiers chapitres pour étudier l'influence de variations à petites échelles dans la vitesse du vent sur la propagation d'un feu de forêt à l'aide de la théorie de l'homogénéisation.

On the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the framework of generalized functions

In this work we study, in the framework of Colombeau`s generalized functions, the Hamilton-Jacobi equation with a given initial condition. We have obtained theorems on existence of solutions and in some cases uniqueness. Our technique is adapted from the classical method of characteristics with a wide use of generalized functions. We were led also to obtain some general results on invertibility and also on ordinary differential equations of such generalized functions. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

The Teleparallel Lagrangian and Hamilton-Jacobi formalism

We analyze the Teleparallel Equivalent of General Relativity (TEGR) from the point of view of Hamilton-Jacobi approach for singular systems.

The Hamilton-Jacobi approach to Teleparallelism

We intend to analyse the constraint structure of Teleparallelism employing the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism for singular systems. This study is conducted without using an ADM 3+1 decomposition and without fixing time gauge condition. It can be verified that the field equations constitute an integrable system.

Generalization of the Hamilton-Jacobi approach for higher-order singular systems

We generalize the Hamilton-Jacobi formulation for higher-order singular systems and obtain the equations of motion as total differential equations. To do this we first study the constraints structure present in such systems.

Hamilton-Jacobi approach to Berezinian singular systems

In this work we present a formal generalization of the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism, recently developed For singular systems, to include the case of Lagrangians containing variables which are elements of Berezin algebra. We derive the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for such systems, analyzing the singular case in order to obtain the equations of motion as total differential equations and study the integrability conditions for such equations. An example is solved using both Hamilton-Jacobi and Dirac's Hamiltonian formalisms and the results are compared. (C) 1998 Academic Press.
