In the study of dynamical systems the conditions for a critical point to be a centre are often sought. The sufficiency of such conditions is probed using various techniques; here we exploit the possible symmetry of a given system. We describe an application of GrΓΆbner bases in the search for a bilin

β¦ Synopsis
It is shown that any Hamiltonian involving only one-and two-bond interactions for a molecule with n bonds and having a point group P as its symmetry group may have the S n #P partial dynamical symmetry, i.e., the Hamiltonian can be solved analytically for a part of the states, called the unique states. For example, the XY 6 molecule has the S 6 #O h partial dynamical symmetry. The model of Iachello and Oss for n coupled anharmonic oscillators is revisited in terms of the partial dynamical symmetry. The energies are obtained analytically for the nine unique levels of the XY 6 molecule and the structures of the eigenstates are disclosed for the first time, while for non-unique states they are obtained by diagonalizing the Hamiltonian in the S 6 #O h symmetry adapted basis with greatly reduced dimension.

The single-rovibronic-level fluorescence of ''intermediate-case'' molecules that undergo methyl internal rotation is strongly influenced by the torsional Ε½ . symmetry of the lowest excited singlet state S . The most dramatic example of such 1 symmetry dependence comes from our recent finding that th
## Abstract Cyclic symmetric structures are those that posses a circumferentially periodic geometry, e.g. gear wheels, bladed discs, etc. Accurate prediction of their static and dynamic characteristics is essential to ensure optimum design. An analysis of the entire structure is often prohibitively
The symmetry group of a nonrigid molecule is related to that of the transition structure that is related to the rearrangement process which contributes to the ''nonrigidity'' of the molecular system. The resulting permutationrrotationrreflection groups for nonrigid molecules can be much larger in or
