Integrability of Kupershmidt deformations

Paul Kersten, Iosif Krasil'shchik, Alexander Verbovetsky +1

We prove that the Kupershmidt deformation of a bi-Hamiltonian system is itself bi-Hamiltonian. Moreover, Magri hierarchies of the initial system give rise to Magri hierarchies of K…

Hamiltonian structures for general PDEs

Paul Kersten, Iosif Krasil'shchik, Alexander Verbovetsky +1

We sketch out a new geometric framework to construct Hamiltonian operators for generic, non-evolutionary partial differential equations. Examples on how the formalism works are pro…

Stability of quantized time-delay nonlinear systems: A Lyapunov-Krasowskii-functional approach

C. De Persis, F. Mazenc

Lyapunov-Krasowskii functionals are used to design quantized control laws for nonlinear continuous-time systems in the presence of constant delays in the input. The quantized contr…

Large scale dynamics in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection

Guenter Ahlers, Siegfried Grossmann, Detlef Lohse

The progress in our understanding of several aspects of turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection is reviewed. The focus is on the question of how the Nusselt number and the Reynolds nu…
