Variational Integrators in Holonomic Mechanics

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
Variational integrators for dynamic systems with holonomic constraints are proposed based on Hamilton’s principle. The variational principle is discretized by approximating the generalized coordinates and Lagrange multipliers by Lagrange polynomials, by ...

Invariant variational principle for Hamiltonian mechanics

open access: yes, 2008
It is shown that the action for Hamiltonian equations of motion can be brought into invariant symplectic form. In other words, it can be formulated directly in terms of the symplectic structure $\omega$ without any need to choose some 1-form $\gamma ...

A Generalized Variational Principle with Applications to Excited State Mean Field Theory. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We present a generalization of the variational principle that is compatible with any Hamiltonian eigenstate that can be specified uniquely by a list of properties.

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Iterative Schemes for a Class of Mixed Trifunction Variational Inequalities

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2012
We use the auxiliary principle technique to suggest and analyze some iterative methods for solving a new class of variational inequalities, which is called the mixed trifunction variational inequality.

The TAP–Plefka Variational Principle for the Spherical SK Model [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Mathematical Physics, 2018
We reinterpret the Thouless–Anderson–Palmer approach to mean field spin glass models as a variational principle in the spirit of the Gibbs variational principle and the Bragg–Williams approximation.

Existence of KPP Type Fronts in Space-Time Periodic Shear Flows and a Study of Minimal Speeds Based on Variational Principle

open access: yes, 2004
We prove the existence of reaction-diffusion traveling fronts in mean zero space-time periodic shear flows for nonnegative reactions including the classical KPP (Kolmogorov-Petrovsky-Piskunov) nonlinearity.

A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

Critical Point Theorems for Nonlinear Dynamical Systems and Their Applications

open access: yesFixed Point Theory and Applications, 2010
We present some new critical point theorems for nonlinear dynamical systems which are generalizations of Dancš-Hegedüs-Medvegyev's principle in uniform spaces and metric spaces by applying an abstract maximal element principle established ...

Addendum to "Coherent Lagrangian vortices: The black holes of turbulence"

open access: yes, 2014
In Haller and Beron-Vera (2013) we developed a variational principle for the detection of coherent Lagrangian vortex boundaries. The solutions of this variational principle turn out to be closed null-geodesics of the Lorentzian metric associated with a ...
