Integrals of Motion in T3 Coordinates

Motivated by the HNM82 derivation, in an accompanying chapter we have introduced a new T2 Coordinate System and have outlined a few of its properties. Here we offer a modest redefinition of the second radial coordinate in an effort to bring even more symmetry to the definition of the position vector, <math>\vec{x}</math>.


Definition

By defining the dimensionless angle,

<math> \Zeta \equiv \sinh^{-1}\biggl( \frac{qz}{\varpi} \biggr) , </math>

the two key "T3" coordinates will be written as,

<math> \lambda_1 </math>

<math>\equiv</math>

<math>\varpi \cosh\Zeta = ( \varpi^2 + q^2z^2 )^{1/2}</math>

      and      

<math> \lambda_2 </math>

<math>\equiv</math>

<math>\varpi [\sinh\Zeta ]^{1/(1-q^2)} = \biggl[\frac{\varpi^{q^2}}{qz}\biggr]^{1/(q^2-1)}</math>

Here are some relevant partial derivatives:

 

<math> \frac{\partial}{\partial x} </math>

<math> \frac{\partial}{\partial y} </math>

<math> \frac{\partial}{\partial z} </math>

<math>\lambda_1</math>

<math> \frac{x}{\lambda_1} </math>

<math> \frac{y}{\lambda_1} </math>

<math> \frac{q^2 z}{\lambda_1} </math>

<math>\lambda_2</math>

<math> \frac{1}{(q^2-1)} \biggl[ \frac{\varpi^{q^2-1}}{\sinh\Zeta} \biggr]^{q^2/(q^2-1)} \biggl( \frac{q^3 z}{\varpi^{q^2+2}} \biggr) x </math>
<math> =\frac{q^2}{(q^2-1)} \biggl[ \frac{\varpi^{q^2}}{qz} \biggr]^{1/(q^2-1)} \biggl( \frac{x}{\varpi^2} \biggr) </math>

<math> \frac{1}{(q^2-1)} \biggl[ \frac{\varpi^{q^2-1}}{\sinh\Zeta} \biggr]^{q^2/(q^2-1)} \biggl( \frac{q^3 z}{\varpi^{q^2+2}} \biggr) y </math>
<math> =\frac{q^2}{(q^2-1)} \biggl[ \frac{\varpi^{q^2}}{qz} \biggr]^{1/(q^2-1)} \biggl( \frac{y}{\varpi^2} \biggr) </math>

<math> - \frac{1}{(q^2-1)} \biggl[ \frac{\varpi^{q^2-1}}{\sinh\zeta} \biggr]^{q^2/(q^2-1)} \frac{q}{\varpi^{q^2}} </math>
<math> =- \frac{1}{(q^2-1)} \biggl[ \frac{\varpi^{q^2}}{qz} \biggr]^{1/(q^2-1)} \frac{1}{z} </math>

<math>\lambda_3</math>

<math> - \frac{y}{\varpi^{2}} </math>

<math> + \frac{x}{\varpi^{2}} </math>

<math> 0 </math>

Alternatively, partials can be taken with respect to the cylindrical coordinates, <math>\varpi</math>, <math>z</math> and <math>\phi</math>. (Incidentally, I have reversed the traditional order of the <math>\phi</math> and <math>z</math> coordinates in an attempt to parallelize structure between cylindrical and T3 coordinates since <math>\lambda_3 \equiv \phi</math>.)

 

<math> \frac{\partial}{\partial \varpi} </math>

<math> \frac{\partial}{\partial z} </math>

<math> \frac{\partial}{\partial \phi} </math>

<math>{\lambda_1}</math>

<math> \frac{\varpi}{\lambda_1} </math>

<math> \frac{q^2 z}{\lambda_1} </math>

<math> 0 </math>

<math>\lambda_2</math>

<math> \frac{q^2}{q^2-1} \left( \frac{\varpi}{qz} \right)^{1/(q^2-1)} </math>

<math> -\frac{1}{q^2-1} \left( \frac{\varpi^{q^2}}{qz^{q^2}} \right)^{1/(q^2-1)} </math>

<math> 0 </math>

<math>\lambda_3</math>

<math> 0 </math>

<math> 0 </math>

Furthermore, the inverted partials are

The scale factors are,

<math>=</math>

<math> \varpi^2 </math>

 

 

where,        <math>\ell \equiv (\varpi^2 + q^4 z^2)^{-1/2}</math>.


The position vector is,

<math>\vec{x}</math>

<math>=</math>

<math> \hat{i}x + \hat{j}y + \hat{k}z </math>

<math>=</math>

<math> \hat{e}_1 (h_1 \lambda_1) + \hat{e}_2 (h_2 \lambda_2) . </math>

Vector Derivatives

For orthogonal coordinate systems, the time-rate-of-change of the three unit vectors are given by the expressions,

<math> \frac{d}{dt}\hat{e}_1 </math>

<math> = </math>

<math> \hat{e}_2 A + \hat{e}_3 B </math>

<math> \frac{d}{dt}\hat{e}_2 </math>

<math> = </math>

<math> - \hat{e}_1 A + \hat{e}_3 C </math>

<math> \frac{d}{dt}\hat{e}_3 </math>

<math> = </math>

<math> - \hat{e}_1 B - \hat{e}_2 C </math>

where,

<math> A </math>

<math> \equiv </math>

<math> \frac{\dot{\lambda}_2}{h_1} \frac{\partial h_2}{\partial \lambda_1} - \frac{\dot{\lambda}_1}{h_2} \frac{\partial h_1}{\partial \lambda_2} </math>

<math> B </math>

<math> \equiv </math>

<math> \frac{\dot{\lambda}_3}{h_1} \frac{\partial h_3}{\partial \lambda_1} - \frac{\dot{\lambda}_1}{h_3} \frac{\partial h_1}{\partial \lambda_3} </math>

<math> C </math>

<math> \equiv </math>

<math> \frac{\dot{\lambda}_3}{h_2} \frac{\partial h_3}{\partial \lambda_2} - \frac{\dot{\lambda}_2}{h_3} \frac{\partial h_2}{\partial \lambda_3} </math>

Another way of expressing this involves Christoffel symbols and is most easily written using index notation.

<math> \frac{d}{dt} \hat{e}_c = \frac{h_a}{h_c} \ \Gamma^a_{bc} \dot{\lambda}_b \ \hat{e}_a \ \ (a \ne c) </math>

Here, we have been admittedly slopping with the placement and notation of indices in order to best accommodate the notation we have been using up to here. The <math>b</math> index is summed over all the coordinates. The <math>a</math> index is summed over all coordinates EXCEPT the <math>c</math> coordinate. The <math>c</math> index is NOT summed over because it is a free index, meaning that it can equal any of the coordinates depending on which unit vector you want to differentiate. Writing this out for each of the individual unit vectors produces

<math> \frac{d}{dt} \hat{e}_1 </math>

<math>=</math>

<math> \frac{h_2}{h_1} \left( \Gamma^2_{11} \dot{\lambda}_1 + \Gamma^2_{21} \dot{\lambda}_2 + \Gamma^2_{31} \dot{\lambda}_3 \right) \hat{e}_2 + \frac{h_3}{h_1} \left( \Gamma^3_{11} \dot{\lambda}_1 + \Gamma^3_{21} \dot{\lambda}_2 + \Gamma^3_{31} \dot{\lambda}_3 \right) \hat{e}_3 </math>

<math>=</math>

<math> \frac{h_1}{h_2} \left( \Gamma^1_{12} \dot{\lambda}_1 + \Gamma^1_{22} \dot{\lambda}_2 + \Gamma^1_{32} \dot{\lambda}_3 \right) \hat{e}_1 + \frac{h_3}{h_2} \left( \Gamma^3_{12} \dot{\lambda}_1 + \Gamma^3_{22} \dot{\lambda}_2 + \Gamma^3_{32} \dot{\lambda}_3 \right) \hat{e}_3 </math>

Time-Derivative of Position and Velocity Vectors

In general for an orthogonal coordinate system, the velocity vector can be written as,

<math> \vec{v} = \hat{e}_1 (h_1 \dot{\lambda}_1) + \hat{e}_2 (h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2) +\hat{e}_3 (h_3 \dot{\lambda}_3) . </math>

So, in general, the time-rate-of-change of the velocity vector is,

<math>\frac{d\vec{v}}{dt}</math>

<math>=</math>

<math> \hat{e}_1 \biggl[\frac{d(h_1 \dot{\lambda}_1)}{dt}\biggr] + (h_1 \dot{\lambda}_1)\frac{d\hat{e}_1}{dt} + \hat{e}_2 \biggl[\frac{d(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)}{dt}\biggr] + (h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)\frac{d\hat{e}_2}{dt} + \hat{e}_3 \biggl[\frac{d(h_3 \dot{\lambda}_3)}{dt}\biggr] + (h_3 \dot{\lambda}_3)\frac{d\hat{e}_3}{dt} </math>

 

<math>=</math>

<math> \hat{e}_1 \biggl[\frac{d(h_1 \dot{\lambda}_1)}{dt}\biggr] + (h_1 \dot{\lambda}_1)\biggl[ \hat{e}_2 A + \hat{e}_3 B \biggr] + \hat{e}_2 \biggl[\frac{d(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)}{dt}\biggr] + (h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)\biggl[ - \hat{e}_1 A + \hat{e}_3 C \biggr] + \hat{e}_3 \biggl[\frac{d(h_3 \dot{\lambda}_3)}{dt}\biggr] + (h_3 \dot{\lambda}_3)\biggl[ - \hat{e}_1 B - \hat{e}_2 C \biggr] </math>

 

<math>=</math>

<math> \hat{e}_1 \biggl[\frac{d(h_1 \dot{\lambda}_1)}{dt} - A(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2) - B(h_3 \dot{\lambda}_3) \biggr] + \hat{e}_2 \biggl[\frac{d(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)}{dt} + A(h_1 \dot{\lambda}_1) - C(h_3 \dot{\lambda}_3) \biggr] + \hat{e}_3 \biggl[\frac{d(h_3 \dot{\lambda}_3)}{dt} + B(h_1 \dot{\lambda}_1) + C(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2) \biggr] </math>

Now, for the T3 coordinate system the position vector has a similar form, specifically,

<math> \vec{x} = \hat{e}_1 (h_1 {\lambda}_1) + \hat{e}_2 (h_2 {\lambda}_2) . </math>

By analogy, then, the time-rate-of-change of the position vector is,

<math>\frac{d\vec{x}}{dt}</math>

<math>=</math>

<math> \hat{e}_1 \biggl[\frac{d(h_1 {\lambda}_1)}{dt}\biggr] + (h_1 {\lambda}_1)\frac{d\hat{e}_1}{dt} + \hat{e}_2 \biggl[\frac{d(h_2 {\lambda}_2)}{dt}\biggr] + (h_2 {\lambda}_2)\frac{d\hat{e}_2}{dt} </math>

 

<math>=</math>

<math> \hat{e}_1 \biggl[\frac{d(h_1 {\lambda}_1)}{dt}\biggr] + (h_1 {\lambda}_1)\biggl[ \hat{e}_2 A + \hat{e}_3 B \biggr] + \hat{e}_2 \biggl[\frac{d(h_2 {\lambda}_2)}{dt}\biggr] + (h_2 {\lambda}_2)\biggl[ - \hat{e}_1 A + \hat{e}_3 C \biggr] </math>

 

<math>=</math>

<math> \hat{e}_1 \biggl[\frac{d(h_1 {\lambda}_1)}{dt} - A(h_2 {\lambda}_2) \biggr] + \hat{e}_2 \biggl[\frac{d(h_2 {\lambda}_2)}{dt} + A(h_1 {\lambda}_1) \biggr] + \hat{e}_3 \biggl[B(h_1 {\lambda}_1) + C(h_2 {\lambda}_2) \biggr] </math>

Derived Identity for T3 Coordinates

Looking at the "<math>\hat{e}_2</math>" component of this last expression, we have,

<math> \hat{e}_2 \cdot \frac{d\vec{x}}{dt} = \frac{d(h_2 {\lambda}_2)}{dt} + A(h_1 {\lambda}_1) . </math>

But we also know that,

<math> \hat{e}_2 \cdot \vec{v} = h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2 . </math>

Hence, it must be true that,

For T3 Coordinates

<math> \lambda_2 \frac{d h_2}{dt} = - A(h_1 {\lambda}_1) </math>

or, equivalently,

<math> A = - \frac{\lambda_2}{h_1 \lambda_1} \frac{d h_2}{dt} </math>

At some point, this identity needs to be checked by taking various partial derivatives of the scale factors and plugging them into the generic definition of <math>A</math>, given above. (Actually, this shouldn't be necessary because in January, 2009, we derived the same equation-of-motion result shown below while using the uglier expression for <math>A</math>. So this must be a correct identity in the context of T3 coordinates.)

Implications of Equation of Motion

Looking now at the "<math>\hat{e}_2</math>" component of the acceleration (which we will set equal to zero), and assuming no motion in the <math>3^\mathrm{rd}</math> component direction, we have,

<math> \hat{e}_2 \cdot \frac{d\vec{v}}{dt} = \frac{d(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)}{dt} + A(h_1 \dot{\lambda}_1) =0 </math>

<math> \Rightarrow ~~~~~ \frac{d(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)}{dt} = - A(h_1 \dot{\lambda}_1) </math>

or, inserting the relation derived above for <math>A</math> in terms of <math>dh_2/dt</math> for T3 coordinates

<math> \Rightarrow ~~~~~ \frac{d(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)}{dt} = \biggl(\frac{\lambda_2 \dot{\lambda}_1}{\lambda_1}\biggr) \frac{dh_2}{dt} </math>

<math> \Rightarrow ~~~~~ \frac{d(h_2 \lambda_1 \dot{\lambda}_2)}{dt} = \dot{\lambda}_1 \frac{d(h_2 \lambda_2)}{dt} . </math>

Or, equivalently (but perhaps more perversely),

<math> \frac{\dot{\lambda}_2}{\lambda_2} \biggl[ \frac{1}{h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2} \frac{d(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)}{dt} \biggr] = \frac{\dot{\lambda}_1}{\lambda_1} \biggl[ \frac{1}{h_2} \frac{dh_2}{dt} \biggr] </math>

<math> \Rightarrow ~~~~~ \frac{d \ln\lambda_2}{dt} \biggl[ \frac{d\ln(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)}{dt} \biggr] = \frac{d\ln\lambda_1}{dt} \biggl[\frac{d\ln h_2}{dt} \biggr] </math>


Note that one of these last few expressions is equivalent to the simplest form of the conservation that we derived — actually, Jay Call derived it — back in January, 2009. Specifically,

<math> \lambda_1 \frac{d(h_2 \dot{\lambda}_2)}{dt} = \lambda_2 \dot{\lambda}_1 \frac{dh_2}{dt} </math>

The 64-thousand dollar question is, "Can we turn any of these expressions into a form which states that the total time-derivative of some function equals zero?"
