Presymplectic and Poisson reduction of cluster maps are described in terms of the "canonical" foliations of presymplectic and Poisson manifolds. This approach to reduction leads to a geometric description, in terms of foliations, of the dynamics of the original (not reduced) map. The case where multiple reductions exist (presymplectic/Poisson or presymplectic/Poisson/Poisson) is further explored and examples illustrating several features of this approach are presented, including a nontrivial one in dimension seven which is comprehensively treated., Comment: Structure of the paper revised following a referee's report

The dynamics of a 1-parameter family of cluster maps $\varphi_r$ associated to mutation-periodic quivers in dimension 4, is studied in detail. The use of presymplectic reduction leads to a globally periodic symplectic map, and this enables us to reduce the problem to the study of maps belonging to a group of symplectic birational maps of the plane which is isomorphic to $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})\ltimes\mathbb{R}^2$. We conclude that there are three different types of dynamical behaviour for $\varphi_r$ characterized by the integer parameter values $r=1$, $r=2$ and $r>2$. For each type, the periodic points, the structure and the asymptotic behaviour of the orbits are completely described. A finer description of the dynamics is provided by using first integrals., Comment: Proposition 4 removed due to partially incorrect statement. Remaining results are not affected

The dynamics of the maps associated to $F_0$ and $dP_3$ quivers is studied in detail. We show that the corresponding reduced symplectic maps are conjugate to globally periodic maps by providing explicit conjugations. The dynamics in $\Rb^N_+$ of the original maps is obtained by lifting the dynamics of these globally periodic maps and the solution of the discrete dynamical systems generated by each map is given. A better understanding of the dynamics is achieved by considering first integrals. The relationship between the complete integrability of the globally periodic maps and the dynamics of the original maps is explored.

Several new mutation-periodic quivers of period higher than 1 are introduced as well as the associated discrete dynamical systems. The reduction of these systems is developed using either a presymplectic or a Poisson approach. The presymplectic approach leads to a reduced system whose iteration map is symplectic with respect to a log symplectic form. In the Poisson approach we build a Poisson structure invariant under the iteration map, leading to a reduced system whose variables are the Casimirs of such structure., Comment: 16 pages, 2 figures

We study iteration maps of recurrence relations arising from mutation periodic quivers of arbitrary period. Combining tools from cluster algebra theory and (pre)symplectic geometry, we show that these cluster iteration maps can be reduced to symplectic maps on a lower dimensional submanifold, provided the matrix representing the quiver is singular. The reduced iteration map is explicitly computed for several new periodic quivers., Comment: 17 pages

For the class of polynomial quadrature rules we show that conveniently chosen bases allow to compute both the weights and the theoretical error expression of a $n$-point rule via the undetermined coefficients method. As an illustration, the framework is applied to some classical rules such as Newton-Cotes, Adams-Bashforth, Adams-Moulton and Gaussian rules., Comment: Minor misprints corrected

We apply geometric techniques to obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions on the existence and nonlinear stability of self-gravitating Riemann ellipsoids having at least two equal axes.

For the cotangent bundle of a smooth Riemannian manifold acted upon by the lift of a smooth and proper action by isometries of a Lie group, we characterize the symplectic normal space at any point. We show that this space splits as the direct sum of the cotangent bundle of a linear space and a symplectic linear space coming from reduction of a coadjoint orbit. This characterization of the symplectic normal space can be expressed solely in terms of the group action on the base manifold and the coadjoint representation. Some relevant particular cases are explored., Comment: Replaced with partially rewritten version. Exposition and results are improved and some mistakes fixed

We consider the problem of cotangent bundle reduction for non free group actions at zero momentum. We show that in this context the symplectic stratification obtained by Sjamaar and Lerman refines in two ways: (i) each symplectic stratum admits a stratification which we call the secondary stratification with two distinct types of pieces, one of which is open and dense and symplectomorphic to a cotangent bundle; (ii) the reduced space at zero momentum admits a finer stratification than the symplectic one into pieces that are coisotropic in their respective symplectic strata., Comment: 38 pages, 1 figure
