Stationary states of the nonlinear Dirac equation: a variational approach

TL;DR: In this article, the existence of stationary solutions of nonlinear Dirac equations is proved by using a general variational technique, which enables us to consider nonlinearities which are not necessarily compatible with symmetry reductions.

Homoclinic Orbits for Asymptotically Linear Hamiltonian Systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the existence of homoclinic orbits for first order time-dependent Hamiltonian systems was studied, where H(z, t) depends periodically on t and Hz(z, t) is asymptotically linear in z as |z|→∞.

Looking for the Bernoulli shift

TL;DR: In this article, a result on the topological entropy of a large class of Hamiltonian systems was proved by constructing "multibump" homoclinic solutions to the problem.

Homoclinic orbits for a class of Hamiltonian systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the second order Hamiltonian system (HS) has a homoclinic orbit q emanating from 0, where q ∊ ℝn and V ∊ C1 (ℝ ×ℽn ℽ) is T periodic in t. The orbit q is obtained as the limit as k → ∞ of 2kT periodic solutions (i.e. subharmonics) qk of (HS).

Some results on connecting orbits for a class of Hamiltonian systems.

TL;DR: In this article, the existence of connecting orbits for a certain Hamiltonian system as well as its time dependent analogue is established for the autonomous case, where the main assumption is that V has a global maximum, e.g. at X = O and we find a various kinds of orbits terminating at O.
