Darboux's Theorem in $p$-adic symplectic geometry

Luis Crespo, Álvaro Pelayo

Abstract

Let $p$ be a prime number. We derive an analog of Moser's Path Method for $p$-adic analytic manifolds and use it to prove a $p$-adic analog of Darboux's Theorem. Using it as a stepping stone we give a classification of second-countable $p$-adic analytic symplectic manifolds in terms of $p$-adic volume. This is a symplectic version of a classical result of Serre in $p$-adic analytic geometry from 1965. We also prove a $p$-adic version of Weinstein's generalization of Darboux's Theorem to neighborhoods of compact manifolds. Finally we find explicitly Darboux's coordinates for the physical models by Ablowitz-Ladik and Salerno of the Discrete Nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Symplectic geometry is deeply connected with classical and quantum mechanics, and a main motivation of this paper is to pursue a $p$-adic version of symplectic geometry following recent developments which incorporate the $p$-adic numbers into mathematical and theoretical physics.

Darboux's Theorem in $p$-adic symplectic geometry

Abstract

Let be a prime number. We derive an analog of Moser's Path Method for -adic analytic manifolds and use it to prove a -adic analog of Darboux's Theorem. Using it as a stepping stone we give a classification of second-countable -adic analytic symplectic manifolds in terms of -adic volume. This is a symplectic version of a classical result of Serre in -adic analytic geometry from 1965. We also prove a -adic version of Weinstein's generalization of Darboux's Theorem to neighborhoods of compact manifolds. Finally we find explicitly Darboux's coordinates for the physical models by Ablowitz-Ladik and Salerno of the Discrete Nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Symplectic geometry is deeply connected with classical and quantum mechanics, and a main motivation of this paper is to pursue a -adic version of symplectic geometry following recent developments which incorporate the -adic numbers into mathematical and theoretical physics.

Key Result

Theorem A

Let $\ell$ and $k$ be integers with $0\leqslant k\leqslant \ell$ and $\ell\geqslant 1$. Let $p$ be a prime number. Let $\mathbb{Z}_p$ denote the $p$-adic integers. Let $d=2$ if $p=2$ and otherwise $d=1$. Let $M$ be an $\ell$-dimensional $p$-adic analytic manifold and let $Q$ be a compact submanifold Let $\mathrm{L}$ denote the $p$-adic Lie derivative and suppose that the differential equation has

  • Figure 2: $p$-adic tubular neighborhoods of dimension $0$, $1$ and $2$ submanifolds of a dimension $3$ manifold as in Definition \ref{['def:tubular']}.
  • Figure 3: Illustration of the proof of Theorem \ref{['thm:darboux']}. First figure: the form $\alpha=\omega_1-\omega_0$ is exact on $U$, that is, it is $\mathrm{d}\beta$ for some $1$-form $\beta$, and this form is given by a power series in a subset $U_2\subset U$. Second figure: we determine $S$ as a subset of $U_2\times T$ and a subset $U_3\subset U_2$ that avoids the points in $S$. Third figure: the vector field $X_t$ on $U_3$. Fourth figure: the resulting sets $U_0$ and $U_1$.
  • Figure 4: Steps of the proof of Theorem \ref{['thm:darboux-weinstein']}. First figure: the manifold $M$, the compact submanifold $Q$, and a tubular neighborhood $U$ of $Q$. Second figure: open subsets $U_1,U_2,U_3,U_4$ covering $Q$ such that $\omega_0$ and $\beta$ are given as power series. Third figure: we reduce $U_i$ to $U_i'$ to avoid the points in $S_i$. Fourth figure: the vector field $X_{i,t}$ in $U_i'$ and the resulting set $U_i"$. Fifth figure: the set $U_0$ is the union of all $U_i"$.
