This thesis discusses the Newtonian limit of General Relativity for static isolated systems with compactly supported matter. We call these systems "geometrostatic" to underline their geometric nature. We introduce new quasi-local notions of mass and center of mass that can be read off locally in the vicinity of the mat…

A machine learning model captures non-Newtonian fluid dynamics from molecular details.

We present a new geometric approach to the study of static isolated general relativistic systems for which we suggest the name geometrostatics. After describing the setup, we introduce localized formulas for the ADM-mass and ADM/CMC-center of mass of geometrostatic systems. We then explain the pseudo-Newtonian characte…

We study the notion of $p$-quasihomotopy in Newtonian classes of mappings and link it to questions concerning lifts of Newtonian maps, under the assumption that the target space is nonpositively curved. Using this connection we prove that every $p$-quasihomotopy class of Newtonian maps contains a minimizer of the $p$-e…

Reviewing Newtonian mechanics in curved spaces.

Class of Newtonian dynamical systems admitting normal blow-up of points in Riemannian manifolds is considered. Geometric interpretation for weak normality condition, which arose earlier in the theory of dynamical systems admitting the normal shift of hypersurfaces, is found.

Explicit description for arbitrary Newtonian dynamical system admitting the normal shift in Riemannian manifold of the dimension $n\geq 3$ is found. On the base of this result the kinematics of normal shift of hypersurfaces along trajectories of such system is studied.

Newtonian, Lagrangian, and Hamiltonian dynamical systems are well formalized mathematically. They give rise to geometric structures describing motion of a point in smooth manifolds. Riemannian metric is a different geometric structure formalizing concepts of length and angle. The interplay of Riemannian metric and its …

A frame independent formulation of analytical mechanics in the Newtonian space-time is presented. The differential geometry of affine values i.e., the differential geometry in which affine bundles replace vector bundles and sections of one dimensional affine bundles replace functions on manifolds, is used. Lagrangian a…

The Schroedinger operator on the Newtonian space-time is defined in a way which is independent on the class of inertial observers. In this picture the Schroedinger operator acts not on functions on the space-time but on sections of certain one-dimensional complex vector bundle over space-time. This bundle, constructed …

The following three geometrical structures on a manifold are studied in detail: (1) Leibnizian: a non-vanishing 1-form $Ω$ plus a Riemannian metric $\h$ on its annhilator vector bundle. In particular, the possible dimensions of the automorphism group of a Leibnizian G-structure are characterized. (2) Galilean: Leibnizi…

Study of timelike surfaces with time-minimizing rulings in Newtonian and relativistic spacetimes.

Normality equations describe Newtonian dynamical systems admitting normal shift of hypersurfaces. They were first derived in Euclidean geometry, then in Riemannian geometry. Recently they were rederived in more general case, when geometry of manifold is given by generalized Legendre transformation. As appears, in this …

The center of mass in General Relativity is hard to define due to coordinate freedom.

The system of weak normality equations constitutes a part in the complete system of normality equations. Solutions of each of these two systems of equations are associated with some definite classes of Newtonian dynamical systems in Riemannian manifolds. In this paper for the case of simplest flat Riemannian manifold $…

High frequency limit for most of wave phenomena is known as quasiclassical limit or ray optics limit. Propagation of waves in this limit is described in terms of wave fronts and rays. Wave front is a surface of constant phase whose points are moving along rays. As it appears, their motion can be described by Hamilton e…

Normality equations describe Newtonian dynamical systems admitting normal shift of hypersurfaces. These equations were first derived in Euclidean geometry. Then very soon they were rederived in Riemannian and in Finslerian geometry. Recently I have found that normality equations can be derived in geometry given by clas…

We present a geometric analysis of the incompressible averaged Euler equations for an ideal inviscid fluid. We show that solutions of these equations are geodesics on the volume-preserving diffeomorphism group of a new weak right invariant pseudo metric. We prove that for precompact open subsets of ${\mathbb R}^n$, thi…

The Galilean group is the group of symmetries of Newtonian mechanics, with Lie a lgebra $\gal(n)$. We find algebraically independent generators for the center of the universal enveloping algebra of $\gal(n)$ using coadjoint orbits.

Main ideas of the differential geometry on affine bundles are presented. Affine counterparts of Lie algebroid and Poisson structures are introduced and discussed. The developed concepts are applied in a frame-independent formulation of the time-dependent and the Newtonian mechanics.

Formula for the force field of Newtonian dynamical systems admitting the normal shift of hypersurfaces in Riemannian manifolds is considered. Problem of globalization for geometric structures associated with this formula is studied.

Newtonian dynamical systems which accept the normal shift on an arbitrary Riemannian manifold are considered. For them the determinating equations making the weak normality condition are derived. The expansion for the algebra of tensor fields is constructed.

We develop a non-relativistic twistor theory, in which Newton--Cartan structures of Newtonian gravity correspond to complex three-manifolds with a four-parameter family of rational curves with normal bundle ${\mathcal O}\oplus{\mathcal O}(2)$. We show that the Newton--Cartan space-times are unstable under the general K…

In 1883, as an early result, Sophus Lie established an explicit necessary and sufficient condition for an analytic second order ordinary differential equation y_xx = F(x,y,y_x) to be equivalent, through a point transformation (x,y) --> (X(x,y), Y(x,y)), to the Newtonian free particle equation Y_XX = 0. This result, pre…

The Schroedinger operators on the Newtonian space-time are defined in a way which make them independent on the class of inertial observers. In this picture the Schroedinger operators act not on functions on the space-time but on sections of certain one-dimensional complex vector bundle -- the Schroedinger line bundle. …

Symmetric Poisson structures linked to geodesic foliations and Jordan algebras.

In this paper we present a new theory of calculus over $k$-dimensional domains in a smooth $n$-manifold, unifying the discrete, exterior, and continuum theories. The calculus begins at a single point and is extended to chains of finitely many points by linearity, or superposition. It converges to the smooth continuum w…

This study compares different thermodynamic structure-informed neural networks for solving differential equations.

We show that any bounded zero-angular momentum solution for the Newtonian three-body problem must suffer infinitely many eclipses, or collinearities, provided that it does not suffer a triple collision. Motivation for the result comes from the dream of building a symbolic dynamics for the three-body problem, one whose …

Theory of Newtonian dynamical systems admitting normal shift of hypersurfaces was first developed for the case of Riemannian manifolds. Recently it was generalized for manifolds geometric equipment of which is given by some regular Lagrangian or, equivalently, by some regular Hamiltonian dynamical system. In present pa…

Training deep reinforcement learning agents complex behaviors in 3D virtual environments requires significant computational resources. This is especially true in environments with high degrees of aliasing, where many states share nearly identical visual features. Minecraft is an exemplar of such an environment. We hypo…

We describe the induced geometry on several classes of Kodaira moduli spaces of rational curves in twistor spaces. By constructing connections and frames on the moduli spaces we build and review twistor theories pertaining to relativistic and non-relativistic geometries. Focussing on the cases of three- and five-dimens…

This paper is devoted to the geometric analysis of the incompressible averaged Euler equations on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary. The equation also coincides with the model for a second-grade non-Newtonian fluid. We study the analytical and geometrical properties of the Lagrangian flow map. We prove existen…

Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) is a popular Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm that generates proposals for a Metropolis-Hastings algorithm by simulating the dynamics of a Hamiltonian system. However, HMC is sensitive to large time discretizations and performs poorly if there is a mismatch between the spatial geo…

We perform an optimal localization of asymptotically flat initial data sets and construct data that have positive ADM mass but are exactly trivial outside a cone of arbitrarily small aperture. The gluing scheme that we develop allows to produce a new class of $N$-body solutions for the Einstein equation, which patently…

Physicists believe, with some justification, that there should be a correspondence between familiar properties of Newtonian gravity and properties of solutions of the Einstein equations. The Positive Mass Theorem (PMT), first proved over twenty years ago \cite{SchoenYau79b,Witten81}, is a remarkable testament to this f…

We review aspects of twistor theory, its aims and achievements spanning thelast five decades. In the twistor approach, space--time is secondary with events being derived objects that correspond to compact holomorphic curves in a complex three--fold -- the twistor space. After giving an elementary construction of this s…

A general, consistent and complete framework for geometrical formulation of mechanical systems is proposed, based on certain structures on affine bundles (affgebroids) that generalize Lie algebras and Lie algebroids. This scheme covers and unifies various geometrical approaches to mechanics in the Lagrangian and Hamilt…

We consider cones over manifolds admitting real Killing spinors and instanton equations on connections on vector bundles over these manifolds. Such cones are manifolds with special (reduced) holonomy. We generalize the scalar ansatz for a connection proposed by Harland and Nolle in such a way that instantons are parame…

We survey many of the important properties of spherically symmetric spacetimes as follows. We present several different ways of describing a spherically symmetric spacetime and the resulting metrics. We then focus our discussion on an especially useful form of the metric of a spherically symmetric spacetime in polar-ar…
