We find that certain higher-order mappings arise as reductions of the integrable discrete A-type KP (AKP) and B-type KP (BKP) equations. We find conservation laws for the AKP and BKP equations, then we use these conservation laws to derive integrals of the associated reduced maps.
In this paper we study the performance of a symplectic numerical integrator based on the splitting method. This method is applied to a subtle problem i.e. higher order resonance of the elastic pendulum. In order to numerically study the phase space of the elastic pendulum at higher order resonance, a numerical integrator which preserves qualitative features after long integration times is needed. We show by means of an example that our symplectic method offers a relatively cheap and accurate numerical integrator.
