This is a contribution to the Proc. of the Seventh International Conference ''Symmetry in Nonlinear Mathematical Physics'' (June 24-30, 2007, Kyiv, Ukraine), published in SIGMA (Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications) at http://www.emis.de/journals/SIGMA/
We review some recent results of the theory of Lie systems in order to apply such results to study Ermakov systems. The fundamental properties of Ermakov systems, i.e. their superposition rules, the Lewis-Ermakov invariants, etc., are found from this new perspective. We also obtain new results, such as a new superposition rule for the Pinney equation in terms of three solutions of a related Riccati equation.
The symmetry analysis of Ermakov systems is extended to the generalized case where the frequency depends on the dynamical variables besides time. In this extended framework, a whole class of nonlinearly coupled oscillators are viewed as Hamiltonian Ermakov system and exactly solved in closed form.
In this work, we study the Lie-point symmetries of Kepler--Ermakov systems presented by C. Athorne in J. Phys. A24 (1991), L1385--L1389. We determine the forms of arbitrary function H(x,y) in order to find the members of this class possessing the sl(2,R) symmetry and a Lagrangian. We show that these systems are usual Ermakov systems with the frequency function depending on the dynamical variables.
We employ the method of nonlocal generalized Sundman transformations to formulate the linearization problem for equations of the generalized Liénard type and show that they may be mapped to equations of the dissipative Ermakov-Milne-Pinney type. We obtain the corresponding new first integrals of these derived equations, this method yields a natural generalization of the construction of Ermakov-Lewis invariant for a time dependent oscillator to (coupled) Liénard and Liénard type equations. We also study the linearization problem for the coupled Liénard equation using nonlocal transformations an…
The theory of superposition rules for solutions of a Lie system of first-order differential equations is extended to deal with analogous systems of second-order and the theory is illustrated with the very rich example of Ermakov-like systems.
We revise recent results on the classification of the generalized three-dimensional Hamiltonian Ermakov system. We show that a statement published recently is incorrect, while the solution for the classification problem was incomplete. We present the correct classification for the three-dimensional system by using results which related the background space with the dynamics. Finally, we extend our results for the generalized $n$% -dimensional Hamiltonian Ermakov system.
Using older and recent results on the integrability of two-dimensional (2d) dynamical systems, we prove that the results obtained in a recent publication concerning the 2d generalized Ermakov system can be obtained as special cases of a more general approach. This approach is geometric and can be used to study efficiently similar dynamical systems.
By using Lie symmetry methods, we identify a class of second order nonlinear ordinary differential equations invariant under at least one dimensional subgroup of the symmetry group of the Ermakov-Pinney equation. In this context, nonlinear superposition rule for second order Kummer-Schwarz equation is rediscovered. Invariance under one-dimensional symmetry group is also used to obtain first integrals (Ermakov-Lewis invariants). Our motivation is a type of equations with singular term that arises in many applications, in particular in the study of general NLS (nonlinear Schrödinger) equations.
We investigate the symmetry properties of a pair of Ermakov equations. The system is superintegrable and yet possesses only three Lie point symmetries with the algebra sl(2,R). The number of point symmetries is insufficient and the algebra unsuitable for the complete specification of the system. We use the method of reduction of order to reduce the nonlinear fourth-order system to a third-order system comprising a linear second-order equation and a conservation law. We obtain the representation of the complete symmetry group from this system. Four of the required symmetries are nonlocal and th…
The geometric theory of Lie systems will be used to establish integrability conditions for several systems of differential equations, in particular Riccati equations and Ermakov systems. Many different integrability criteria in the literature will be analyzed from this new perspective and some applications in physics will be given.

We use the geometric approach to the theory of Lie systems of differential equations in order to study dissipative Ermakov systems. We prove that there is a superposition rule for solutions of such equations. This fact enables us to express the general solution of a dissipative Milne--Pinney equation in terms of particular solutions of a system of second-order linear differential equations and a set of constants.
A Lie system is a nonautonomous system of first-order differential equations possessing a superposition rule, i.e. a map expressing its general solution in terms of a generic finite family of particular solutions and some constants. Lie-Hamilton systems form a subclass of Lie systems whose dynamics is governed by a curve in a finite-dimensional real Lie algebra of functions on a Poisson manifold. It is shown that Lie-Hamilton systems are naturally endowed with a Poisson coalgebra structure. This allows us to devise methods to derive in an algebraic way their constants of motion and superpositi…
We demonstrate a simplification of some recent works on the classification of the Lie symmetries for a quadratic equation of Liénard type. We observe that the problem could have been resolved more simply.
The theory of Lie systems has recently been applied to Quantum Mechanics and additionally some integrability conditions for Lie systems of differential equations have also recently been analysed from a geometric perspective. In this paper we use both developments to obtain a geometric theory of integrability in Quantum Mechanics and we use it to provide a series of non-trivial integrable quantum mechanical models and to recover some known results from our unifying point of view.
A review is given of some recently obtained results on analytic contractions of Lie algebras and Lie groups and their applications to special function theory.
In the context of the variational bi-complex, we re-explain that irreducible gauge systems define a particular example of a Lie algebroid. This is used to review some recent and not so recent results on gauge, global and asymptotic symmetries.
We review recent results on functional inequalities for systems of orthonormal functions. The key finding is that for various operators the orthonormality leads to a gain over a simple application of the triangle inequality. The operators under consideration are either related to Sobolev type inequalities or to Fourier restriction type inequalities.
We review some recent progress on Lieb-Thirring inequalities, focusing on direct methods to kinetic estimates for orthonormal functions and applications for many-body quantum systems.
We report on recent work concerning a new type of generalised Kac-Moody algebras based on the spaces of differentiable mappings from compact manifolds or homogeneous spaces onto compact Lie groups.
This paper is a review of recent results on integrable nonholonomic geodesic flows of left--invariant metrics and left- and right--invariant constraint distributions on compact Lie groups.
Motivated by recent work on Hom-Lie algebras and the Hom-Yang-Baxter equation, we introduce a twisted generalization of the classical Yang-Baxter equation (CYBE), called the classical Hom-Yang-Baxter equation (CHYBE). We show how an arbitrary solution of the CYBE induces multiple infinite families of solutions of the CHYBE. We also introduce the closely related structure of Hom-Lie bialgebras, which generalize Drinfel'd's Lie bialgebras. In particular, we study the questions of duality and cobracket perturbation and the sub-classes of coboundary and quasi-triangular Hom-Lie bialgebras.
We give an overview of recent results on Lieb-Robinson bounds and some of their applications in the study of quantum many-body models in condensed matter physics.
We review some recent results on the theory of Lagrangian systems on Lie algebroids. In particular we consider the symplectic and variational formalism and we study reduction. Finally we also consider optimal control systems on Lie algebroids and we show how to reduce Pontryagin maximum principle.
Recent exact solutions of the 1D Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation make use of the 1D integrable Lieb-Liniger model of interacting bosons. For flat initial conditions, it requires the knowledge of the overlap between the uniform state and arbitrary exact Bethe eigenstates. The same quantity is also central in the study of the quantum quench from a 1D non-interacting Bose-Einstein condensate upon turning interactions. We compare recent advances in both domains, i.e. our previous exact solution, and a new conjecture by De Nardis et al.. This leads to new exact results and conjectures for both the qua…
