The influence of the rolling resistance model on tippe top inversion

In this paper, we analyze the effect which the choice of a friction model has on tippe top inversion in the case where the resulting action of all dissipative forces is described not only by the force applied at the contact point, but also by the additional rolling resistance torque. We show that, depending on the friction model used, the system admits different first integrals. In particular, we give examples of friction models where the Jellett integral, the Lagrange integral or the area integral is preserved. We examine in detail the case where the action of all dissipative forces reduces to the horizontal rolling resistance torque. For this case we find permanent rotations of the system and analyze their linear stability. Also, we show that for this friction model no inversion is observed.

Reduction and chaotic behavior of point vortices on a plane and a sphere

We offer a new method of reduction for a system of point vortices on a plane and a sphere. This method is similar to the classical node elimination procedure. However, as applied to the vortex dynamics, it requires substantial modification. Reduction of four vortices on a sphere is given in more detail. We also use the Poincare surface-of-section technique to perform the reduction a four-vortex system on a sphere.

Stability of Thomson's Configurations of Vortices on a Sphere

In this work stability of polygonal configurations on a plane and sphere is investigated. The conditions of linear stability are obtained. A nonlinear analysis of the problem is made with the help of Birkhoff normalization. Some problems are also formulated.

Dynamics of rolling disk

In the paper we present the qualitative analysis of rolling motion without slipping of a homogeneous round disk on a horisontal plane. The problem was studied by S.A. Chaplygin, P. Appel and D. Korteweg who showed its integrability. The behavior of the point of contact on a plane is investigated and conditions under which its trajectory is finit are obtained. The bifurcation diagrams are constructed.

Absolute and relative choreographies in the problem of point vortices moving on a plane

We obtained new periodic solutions in the problems of three and four point vortices moving on a plane. In the case of three vortices, the system is reduced to a Hamiltonian system with one degree of freedom, and it is integrable. In the case of four vortices, the order is reduced to two degrees of freedom, and the system is not integrable. We present relative and absolute choreographies of three and four vortices of the same intensity which are periodic motions of vortices in some rotating and fixed frame of reference, where all the vortices move along the same closed curve. Similar choreographies have been recently obtained by C. Moore, A. Chenciner, and C. Simo for the n-body problem in celestial mechanics [6, 7, 17]. Nevertheless, the choreographies that appear in vortex dynamics have a number of distinct features.

Two-body problem on a sphere. Reduction, stochasticity, periodic orbits

We consider the problem of two interacting particles on a sphere. The potential of the interaction depends on the distance between the particles. The case of Newtonian-type potentials is studied in most detail. We reduce this system to a system with two degrees of freedom and give a number of remarkable periodic orbits. We also discuss integrability and stochastization of the motion.

The Rolling Motion of a Ball on a Surface. New Integrals and Hierarchy of Dynamics

The paper is concerned with the problem on rolling of a homogeneous ball on an arbitrary surface. New cases when the problem is solved by quadratures are presented. The paper also indicates a special case when an additional integral and invariant measure exist. Using this case, we obtain a nonholonomic generalization of the Jacobi problem for the inertial motion of a point on an ellipsoid. For a ball rolling, it is also shown that on an arbitrary cylinder in the gravity field the ball's motion is bounded and, on the average, it does not move downwards. All the results of the paper considerably expand the results obtained by E. Routh in XIX century.
