Towards a Hamilton-Jacobi Theory for Nonholonomic Mechanical Systems

arXiv:0705.3739

Abstract

In this paper we obtain a Hamilton-Jacobi theory for nonholonomic mechanical systems. The results are applied to a large class of nonholonomic mechanical systems, the so-called Čaplygin systems.

13 pages, added references, fixed typos, comparison with previous approaches and some explanations added. To appear in J. Phys. A
