Abstract
This paper discusses conditions for the existence of polynomial (in velocities) first integrals
of the equations of motion of mechanical systems in a nonpotential force field (circulatory systems). These integrals are assumed to be single-valued smooth functions on the phase space of the system (on the space of the tangent bundle of a smooth configuration manifold). It is shown that, if the genus of the closed configuration manifold of such a system with two degrees of freedom is greater than unity, then the equations of motion admit no nonconstant single-valued polynomial integrals. Examples are given of circulatory systems with configuration space in the form of a sphere and a torus which have nontrivial polynomial laws of conservation.
Some unsolved problems involved in these phenomena are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Regular and Chaotic Dynamics (RCD) is an international journal publishing original research papers in dynamical systems theory and its applications. Rooted in the Moscow school of mathematics and mechanics, the journal successfully combines classical problems, modern mathematical techniques and breakthroughs in the field. Regular and Chaotic Dynamics welcomes papers that establish original results, characterized by rigorous mathematical settings and proofs, and that also address practical problems. In addition to research papers, the journal publishes review articles, historical and polemical essays, and translations of works by influential scientists of past centuries, previously unavailable in English. Along with regular issues, RCD also publishes special issues devoted to particular topics and events in the world of dynamical systems.
