Streszczenie:
Here we compare the geometric descriptions of the deformed sphere (i.e., the so-called λ-sphere) and the standard spheroid (namely, World Geodetic System 1984’s reference ellipsoid of revolution). Among the main geometric characteristics of those two surfaces of revolution embedded into the three-dimensional Euclidean space we consider the semi-major (equatorial) and semi-minor (polar) axes, quartermeridian length, surface area, volume, sphericity index, and tipping (bifurcation) point for geodesics. Next, the RMS (Root Mean Square) error is defined as the square-rooted arithmetic mean of the squared relative errors for the individual pairs of the discussed six main geometric characteristics. As a result of the process of minimization of the RMS error, we have obtained the proposition of the optimized value of the deformation parameter of the λ-sphere, for which we have calculated the absolute and relative errors for the individual pairs of the discussed main geometric characteristics of λ-sphere and standard spheroid (the relative errors are of the order of 10−6 – 10−9). Among others, it turns out that the value of the flattening factor of the spheroid is quite a good approximation for the corresponding value of the deformation parameter of the λ-sphere (the relative error is of the order of 10−4).

Streszczenie:
Starting with identifications of the very fundamental geometric characteristics of a Mylar balloon such as the profile curve, height, volume, arclength, surface area, crimping factor, etc., using the geometrical moments In(x) and In, we present explicit formulas for them and those of the mechanical moments of both solid and hollow balloons of arbitrary order. This is achieved by relying on the recursive relationships among elliptic integrals and the final results are expressed via the fundamental mathematical constants such as π, lemniscate constant ˜ω, and Gauss’s constant G. An interesting periodicity modulo 4 was detected and accounted for in the final formulas for the moments. The principal results are illustrated by two tables, a few graphics, and some direct relationships with other fundamental areas in mathematics, physics and geometry are pointed out.

Streszczenie:
In this article, we consider deformed spheres as a new reference model for the geoid, alternatively to the classical ellipsoidal one. The parametrization of deformed spheres is furnished through the incomplete elliptic integrals. From the other side, the solutions for geodesics on those surfaces are given entirely via elementary analytical functions, contrary to the case of ellipsoids of revolution. We explicitly described algorithms (all necessary computational steps) for the solution of the direct and inverse geodetic problems on the deformed spheres. Finally, we presented a few illustrative numerical solutions of the inverse geodetic problems for two conceptual cases of near and far points. It had turned out that even in the non-optimized case we obtained the good agreement with the predictions of the World Geodetic System 1984’s ellipsoidal reference model.

Streszczenie:
In the present article, a unifying approach to description of different Heisenberg models (i.e., XY model, isotropic case, easy-plane, and easy-axis regimes) for spin distributions on curved surfaces is discussed. After introduction of isothermal (conformal) metrics on surfaces of revolution, the axially symmetric solution of the Euler–Lagrange equation for the quasi-one-dimensional magnetic Hamiltonian has been obtained for all four discussed cases in the form of an incomplete elliptic integral of the third kind. It has been shown that the limiting case of XY model can be achieved from an easy-plane regime when the parameter of anisotropy of interaction amongst spins ? is approaching −1, while the isotropic case can be achieved from both easy-plane and easy-axis regimes when ? is approaching 0. After the application of the corresponding boundary conditions, the soliton-like solutions have been obtained that either cover the whole surface (in a one-twist or multi-twist manner) or can be arranged in the form of a periodic lattice structure on the curved surface. The general unifying scheme has been illustrated using the exemplary surfaces of revolution with zero (cylinder), negative (catenoid), and positive (sphere) Gaussian curvatures.

Streszczenie:
The considerations of the mechanics of incompressible test bodies moving on spheres are generalized to the case of λ-spheres. Both surfaces are examples of Riemannian manifolds realized as two-dimensional manifolds with strictly positive Gaussian curvature under the condition λ < 1/3 for the λ-spheres. A convenient parametrization of λ-spheres embedded as two-dimensional surfaces of revolution into the three-dimensional Euclidean space is derived. The so-obtained parametrization is expressed in a concise form via the elliptic integrals of the first, second, and third kind. Next, the geodetic motion is considered. The explicit solutions for two branches of the incompressible motion are obtained in the parametric form. For the special case of geodetics corresponding to meridians taken as geodesics their analysis is performed in detail. In the latter case, the so-obtained geodetic solutions are reduced to the incomplete elliptic integrals of the first, second, and third kind.

Streszczenie:
In this paper, we present a new reference model that approximates the actual shape of the Earth, based on the concept of the deformed spheres with the deformation parameter λ. These surfaces, which are called λ-spheres, were introduced in another setting by Faridi and Schucking as an alternative to the spheroids (i.e., ellipsoids of revolution). Using their explicit parametrizations that we have derived in our previous papers, here we have defined the corresponding isothermal (conformal) coordinates as well as obtained and solved the differential equation describing the loxodromes (or rhumb lines) on such surfaces. Next, the direct and inverse problems for loxodromes have been formulated and the explicit solutions for azimuths and arc lengths have been presented. Using these explicit solutions, we have assessed the value of the deformation parameter λ for our reference model on the basis of the values for the semi-major axis of the Earth a and the quarter-meridian mp (i.e., the distance between the Equator and the North or South Pole) for the current best ellipsoidal reference model for the geoid, i.e., WGS 84 (World Geodetic System 1984). The latter is designed for use as the reference system for the GPS (Global Positioning System). Finally, we have compared the results obtained with the use of the newly proposed reference model for the geoid with the corresponding results for the ellipsoidal (WGS 84) and spherical reference models used in the literature.

Streszczenie:
In this paper we explore the mechanics of infinitesimal gyroscopes (test bodies with internal degrees of freedom) moving on an arbitrary member of the helicoid-catenoid family of minimal surfaces. As the configurational spaces within this family are far from being trivial manifolds, the problem of finding the geodesic and geodetic motions presents a real challenge. We have succeeded in finding the solutions of those motions in an explicit parametric form. It is shown that in both cases the solutions can be expressed through the elliptic functions and elliptic integrals, but in the geodetic case some appropriately chosen compatibility conditions for glueing together different branches of the solution are needed. Additionally, an action-angle analysis of the corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi equations is performed for external potentials that are well-suited to the geometry of the problem under consideration. As a result, five different sets of conditions between the three action variables and the total energy of the infinitesimal gyroscopes are obtained.

Streszczenie:
In the present paper, we have discussed the mechanics of incompressible test bodies moving in Riemannian spaces with nontrivial curvature tensors. For Hamilton's equations of motion, the solutions have been obtained in the parametrical form and the special case of the purely gyroscopic motion on the sphere has been discussed. For the geodetic case when the potential is equal to zero, the comparison between the geodetic and geodesic solutions has been done and illustrated in details for the case of a particular choice of the constants of motion of the problem. The obtained results could be applied, among others, in geophysical problems, for example, for description of the movement of continental plates or the motion of a drop of fat or a spot of oil on the surface of the ocean (e.g., produced during some "ecological disaster"), or generally in biomechanical problems, for example, for description of the motion of objects with internal structure on different curved two-dimensional surfaces (e.g., transport of proteins along the curved biological membranes).

Streszczenie:
This paper starts with the derivation of the most general equations of motion for the infinitesimal rotators moving on arbitrary two‐dimensional surfaces of revolution. Both geodesic and geodetic (i.e., without any external potential) equations of motion on surfaces with nontrivial curvatures that are embedded into the three dimensional Euclidean space are discussed. The Mylar balloon as a concrete example for the application of the scheme was chosen. A new parameterization of this surface is presented, and the corresponding equations of motion for geodesics and geodetics are expressed in an analytical form through the elliptic functions and elliptic integrals. The so‐obtained results are also compared with those for the two‐dimensional sphere embedded into the three‐dimensional Euclidean space for which it can be shown that the geodesics and geodetics are plane curves realized as the great and small circles on the sphere, respectively.

Streszczenie:
Here, we apply the general scheme for description of mechanics of infinitesimal bodies in Riemannian spaces to the example of geodetic and non-geodetic (for two different model potentials) motions of infinitesimal rotators on the Mylar balloon. The structure of partial degeneracy is investigated with the help of the corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi equation and action-angle analysis. In all situations it was found that for any of the sixth disjoint regions in the phase space among the three action variables only two are essential for the description of our models at the level of the old quantum theory (according to the Bohr-Sommerfeld postulates). Moreover, in both non-geodetic models, the action variables were intertwined with the quantum number N corresponding to the quantized value of the radius r of the inflated Mylar balloon.

Streszczenie:
This paper discusses the motion of infinitesimal gyroscopes along the two-dimensional surfaces of constant mean curvature embedded into the three-dimensional Euclidean space. We have considered the cases of unduloids, spheres, and cylinders for which the corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi equations are written and analyzed with the help of the action-angle variables. Spheres and cylinders are considered as limiting cases of unduloids and the residue analysis was performed which provides the connection between all three action variables and the energy. This has been traced also for the geodetic situations and for two additional classical model potentials.

Streszczenie:
There are various models of gravitation: the metrical Hilbert‐Einstein theory, a wide class of intrinsically Lorentz‐invariant tetrad theories (generally covariant in the space‐time sense), and many gauge models based on various internal symmetry groups (Lorentz, Poincare, GL(n,R), SU(2,2), GL(4,C), etc). The gauge models are usually preferred but nevertheless it is an interesting idea to develop the class of GL(4,R)‐invariant (or rather GL(n,R)‐invariant) tetrad (n‐leg) generally covariant models. This is done below and motivated by our idea of bringing back to life the Thales of Miletus concept of affine symmetry. Formally, the obtained scheme is a generally covariant tetrad (n‐leg) model, but it turns out that generally covariant and intrinsically affinely invariant models must have a kind of nonaccidental Born‐Infeld‐like structure. Let us also mention that they, being based on tetrads (n‐legs), have many features common with continuous defect theories. It is interesting that they possess some group‐theoretical solutions and more general spherically symmetric solutions, discussion of which is the main new result presented in this paper, including the applications of the 't Hooft‐Polyakov monopoles in the generally covariant theories, which enables us to find some rigorous solutions of our strongly nonlinear equations. It is also interesting that within such a framework, the normal‐hyperbolic signature of the space‐time metric is not introduced by hand but appears as a kind of solution, rather integration constants, of differential equations. Let us mention that our Born‐Infeld scheme is more general than alternative tetrad models. It may be also used within more general schemes, including also the gauge ones.

Streszczenie:
In this paper we discuss certain dynamical models of affine bodies, including problems of partial separability and integrability. There are some reasons to expect that the suggested models are dynamically viable and that on the fundamental level of physical phenomena the "large" affine symmetry of dynamical laws is more justified and desirable than the restricted invariance under isometries.

Streszczenie:
In this paper, we develop the main ideas of the quantized version of affinely rigid (homogeneously deformable) motion. We base our consideration on the usual Schrödinger formulation of quantum mechanics in the configurationmanifold, which is given, in our case, by the affine group or equivalently by the semi-direct product of the linear group GL(n,R) and the space of translations R^n, where n equals the dimension of the “physical space.” In particular, we discuss the problem of dynamical invariance of the kinetic energy under the action of the whole affine group, not only under the isometry subgroup. Technically, the treatment is based on the 2-polar decomposition of the matrix of the internal configuration and on the Peter-Weyl theory of generalized Fourier series on Lie groups. One can hope that our results may be applied in quantum problems of elastic media and microstructured continua.

Streszczenie:
The aim of this paper is to perform a deeper geometric analysis of problems appearing in dynamics of affinely rigid bodies. First of all we present a geometric interpretation of the polar and the two-polar decomposition of affine motion. Later on some additional constraints imposed on the affine motion are reviewed, both holonomic and non-holonomic. In particular, we concentrate on certain natural non-holonomic models of the rotation-less motion. We discuss both the usual d’Alembert model and the vakonomic dynamics. The resulting equations are quite different. It is not yet clear which model is practically better. In any case they both are different from the holonomic constraints defining the rotation-less motion as a time-dependent family of symmetric matrices of placements. The latter model seems to be non-geometric and non-physical. Nevertheless, there are certain relationships between our non-holonomic models and the polar decomposition.

An analytical approach based on the parametric representation of the wave propagation in non-uniform media was considered. In addition to the previously developed theory of parametric antiresonance describing the field attenuation in stop bands, in the present paper, the behaviour of the Bloch wave in a transmission band was investigated. A wide class of exact solutions was found, and the correspondence to the quasi-periodic Floquet solutions was shown.

Streszczenie:
The main leitmotivs of this paper are the essential nonlinearities, symmetries and the mutual relationships between them. By essential nonlinearities we mean ones which are not interpretable as some extra perturbations imposed on a linear background deciding about the most important qualitative features of discussed phenomena. We also investigate some discrete and continuous systems, roughly speaking with large symmetry groups. And some remarks about the link between two concepts are reviewed. Namely, we advocate the thesis that the most important non-perturbative nonlinearities are those implied by the assumed “large” symmetry groups. It is clear that such a relationship does exist, although there is no complete theory. We compare the mechanism of inducing nonlinearity by symmetry groups of discrete and continuous systems. Many striking and instructive analogies are found, e.g., analogy between analytical mechanics of systems of affine bodies and general relativity, tetrad models of gravitation, and Born-Infeld nonlinearity. Some interesting, a bit surprising problems concerning Noether theorem are discussed, in particular in the context of large symmetry groups.

Discussed are some geometric aspects of the phase space formalism in quantum mechanics in the sense of Weyl, Wigner, Moyal, and Ville. We analyze the relationship between this formalism and geometry of the Galilei group, classical momentum mapping, theory of unitary projective representations of groups, and theory of groups algebras. Later on, we present some generalization to quantum mechanics on locally compact Abelian groups. It is based on Pontryagin duality. Indicated are certain physical aspects in quantum dynamics of crystal lattices, including the phenomenon of ‘Umklapp–Prozessen’.

Streszczenie:
Discussed are certain strange properties of the Galilei group, connected first of all with the property of mechanical energy-momentum covector to be an affine object, rather than the linear one. Its affine transformation rule is interesting in itself and dependent on the particle mass. On the quantum level this means obviously that we deal with the projective unitary representation of the group rather than with the usual representation. The status of mass is completely different than in relativistic theory, where it is a continuous eigenvalue of the Casimir invariant. In Galilei framework it is a parameter characterizing the factor of the projective representation, in the sense of V. Bargmann. This “pathology” from the relativistic point of view is nevertheless very interesting and it underlies the Weyl-Wigner-Moyal-Ville approach to quantum mechanics.

Streszczenie:
Discussed are geometric structures underlying analytical mechanics of systems of affine bodies. Presented is detailed algebraic and geometric analysis of concepts like mutual deformation tensors and their invariants. Problems of affine invariance and of its interplay with the usual Euclidean invariance are reviewed. This analysis was motivated by mechanics of affine (homogeneously deformable) bodies, nevertheless, it is also relevant for the theory of unconstrained continua and discrete media. Postulated are some models where the dynamics of elastic vibrations is encoded not only in potential energy (sometimes even not at all) but also (sometimes first of all) in appropriately chosen models of kinetic energy (metric tensor on the configuration space), like in Maupertuis principle. Physically, the models may be applied in structured discrete media, molecular crystals, fullerens, and even in description of astrophysical objects. Continuous limit of our affine-multibody theory is expected to provide a new class of micromorphic media.

Streszczenie:
This is the third part of our series “Quasiclassical and Quantum Systems of Angular Momentum”. In two previous parts we have discussed the methods of group algebras in formulation of quantum mechanics and certain quasiclassical problems. Below we specify to the special case of the group SU(2) and its quotient SO(3,R), and discuss just our main subject in this series, i.e., angular momentum problems. To be more precise, this is the purely SU(2)-treatment, so formally this might also apply to isospin. However. it is rather hard to imagine realistic quasiclassical isospin problems.

Streszczenie:
In Part I of this series we have presented the general ideas of applying group-algebraic methods for describing quantum systems. The treatment there was very “ascetic” in that only the structure of a locally compact topological group was used. Below we explicitly make use of the Lie group structure. Relying on differential geometry one is able to introduce explicitly representation of important physical quantities and to formulate the general ideas of quasiclassical representation and classical analogy.

Streszczenie:
We use the mathematical structure of group algebras and $H^+$-algebras for describing certain problems concerning the quantum dynamics of systems of angular momenta, including also the spin systems. The underlying groups are SU(2) and its quotient SO(3, R). The proposed scheme is applied in two different contexts. Firstly, the purely group-algebraic framework is applied to the system of angular momenta of arbitrary origin, e.g., orbital and spin angular momenta of electrons and nucleons, systems of quantized angular momenta of rotating extended objects like molecules. Secondly, the other promising area of applications is Schroedinger quantum mechanics of rigid body with its often rather unexpected and very interesting features. Even within this Schroedinger framework the algebras of operators related to group algebras are a very useful tool. We investigate some problems of composed systems and the quasiclassical limit obtained as the asymptotics of “large” quantum numbers, i.e., “quickly oscillating” wave functions on groups. They are related in an interesting way to geometry of the coadjoint orbits of SU(2).

Streszczenie:
Discussed is the structure of classical and quantum excitations of internal degrees of freedom of multiparticle objects like molecules, fullerens, atomic nuclei, etc. Basing on some invariance properties under the action of isometric and affine transformations we reviewed some new models of the mutual interaction between rotational and deformative degrees of freedom. Our methodology and some results may be useful in the theory of Raman scattering and nuclear radiation.

Streszczenie:
Considered is the Schrödinger equation in a finite-dimensional space as an equation of mathematical physics derivable from the variational principle and treatable in terms of the Lagrange-Hamilton formalism. It provides an interesting example of “mechanics” with singular Lagrangians, effectively treatable within the framework of Dirac formalism. We discuss also some modified “Schrödinger” equations involving second-order time derivatives and introduce a kind of nondirect, nonperturbative, geometrically-motivated nonlinearity based on making the scalar product a dynamical quantity. There are some reasons to expect that this might be a new way of describing open dynamical systems and explaining some quantum “paradoxes”.

Streszczenie:
In this article we consider the affinely-rigid body moving in the three-dimensional physical space and subject to the Kirchhoff–Love constraints, i.e., while it deforms homogeneously in the two-dimensional central plane of the body it simultaneously performs one-dimensional oscillations orthogonal to this central plane. For the polar decomposition we obtain the stationary ellipsoids as special solutions of the general, strongly nonlinear equations of motion. It is also shown that these solutions are conceptually different from those obtained earlier for the two-polar (singular value) decomposition.

Streszczenie:
The special interest is devoted to such situations when the material space of object with affine degrees of freedom has generally lower dimension than the one of the physical space. In other words when we have m-dimensional affinely-rigid body moving in the n-dimensional physical space, m < n. We mainly concentrate on the physical situation m = 2, n = 3 when “thickness” of flat bodies performs one-dimensional oscillations orthogonal to the two-dimensional central plane of the body. For the isotropic case in two “flat” dimensions some special solutions, namely, the stationary ellipses, which are analogous to the ellipsoidal figures of equilibrium well known in astro- and geophysics, e.g., in the theory of the Earth’s shape, are obtained.

Described is n-level quantum system realized in the n-dimensional “Hilbert” space H with the scalar product G taken as a dynamical variable. The most general Lagrangian for the wave function and G is considered. Equations of motion and conservation laws are obtained.

Streszczenie:
Discussed is the quantized version of the classical description of collective and internal affine modes as developed in Part I. We perform the Schroedinger quantization and reduce effectively the quantized problem from $n^2$ to $n$ degrees of freedom. Some possible applications in nuclear physics and other quantum many-body problems are suggested. Discussed is also the possibility of half-integer angular momentum in composed systems of spinless particles.

Streszczenie:
Discussed is a model of collective and internal degrees of freedom with kinematics based on affine group and its subgroups. The main novelty in comparison with the previous attempts of this kind is that it is not only kinematics but also dynamics that is affinely-invariant. The relationship with the dynamics of integrable one-dimensional lattices is discussed. It is shown that affinely-invariant geodetic models may encode the dynamics of something like elastic vibrations.

The Green function for Klein-Gordon-Dirac equation is obtained. The case with the dominating Klein-Gordon term is considered. There seems to be a formal analogy between our problem and a certain problem for a 4-dimensional particle moving in the external field. The explicit relations between the wave function, Green function and initial conditions are established with the help of the T-exponent formalism.

Streszczenie:
The classical and quantum mechanics of systems on Lie groups and their homogeneous spaces are described. The special stress is laid on the dynamics of deformable bodies and the mutual coupling between rotations and deformations. Deformative modes are discretized, i.e., it is assumed that the relevant degrees of freedom are controlled by a finite number of parameters. We concentrate on the situation when the effective configuration space is identical with affine group (affinely-rigid bodies). The special attention is paid to left- and right-invariant geodetic systems, when there is no potential term and the metric tensor underlying the kinetic energy form is invariant under left or/and right regular translations on the group. The dynamics of elastic vibrations may be encoded in this way in the very form of kinetic energy. Although special attention is paid to invariant geodetic systems, the potential case is also taken into account.

Streszczenie:
Discussed is the Klein-Gordon-Dirac equation, i.e. a linear differential equation with constant coefficients, obtained by superposing Dirac and d'Alembert operators. A general solution of KGD equation as a superposition of two Dirac plane harmonic waves with different masses has been obtained. The multiplication rules for Dirac bispinors with different masses have been found. Lagrange formalism has been applied to receive the energy-momentum tensor and 4-current. It appears, in particular, that the scalar product is a superposition of Klein-Gordon and Dirac scalar products. The primary approach to canonical formalism is suggested. The limit cases of equal masses and one zero mass have been calculated.

Streszczenie:
Our main idea is to suggest a new model of non-perturbative and geometrically motivated nonlinearity in quantum mechanics. The Schroedinger equation and corresponding relativistic linear wave equations derivable from variational principles are analyzed as usual self-adjoint equations of mathematical physics. It turns out that introducing the second-order time derivatives to dynamical equations, even as small corrections, can help to obtain the regular Legendre transformation. Following the conceptual transition from the special to general theory of relativity, where the metric tensor loses its status of the absolute geometric object and becomes included into degrees of freedom (gravitational field), in our treatment the Hilbert-space scalar product becomes a dynamical quantity which satisfies together with the state vector the system of differential equations. The structure of obtained Lagrangian and equations of motion is very beautiful, as usually in high-symmetry problems.

Streszczenie:
In the previous lecture we have introduce and discussed the concept of affinely-rigid, i.e., homogeneously deformable body. Some symmetry problems and possible applications were discussed. We referred also to our motivation by Euler ideas. Below we describe the general principles of the quantization of this theory in the Schroedinger language. The special stress is laid on highly-symmetric, in particular affinely-invariant, models and the Peter-Weyl analysis of wave functions.

Streszczenie:
Our work has been inspired among others by the work of Arnold, Kozlov and Neihstadt. Our goal is to carry out a thorough analysis of the geometric problems we are faced with in the dynamics of affinely rigid bodies. We examine two models: classical dynamics description by d'Alembert and vakonomic one. We conclude that their results are quite different. It is not yet clear which model i practically better.
