Higher order normal modes / G. Gaeta, S. Walcher. - In: JOURNAL OF GEOMETRIC MECHANICS. - ISSN 1941-4889. - 12:3(2020 Sep), pp. 421-434. [10.3934/jgm.2020026]
Abstract:
Normal modes are intimately related to the quadratic approximation of a potential at its hyperbolic equilibria. Here we extend the notion to the case where the Taylor expansion for the potential at a critical point starts with higher order terms, and show that such an extension shares some of the properties of standard normal modes. Some symmetric examples are considered in detail.
