Relative equilibria in Hamiltonian systems: The dynamic interpretation of nonlinear stability on a reduced phase space
Abstract
Stability of relative equilibria for Hamiltonian systems is generally equated with Liapunov stability of the corresponding fixed point of the flow on the reduced phase space. Under mild assumptions, a sharp interpretation of this stability is given in terms of concepts on the unreduced space.
