Description | The classical Bohl transformation from 1906 concerns the second order linear differential equations and states, roughly speaking, that a pair of linearly independent solutions of a second order differential equation can be expressed via the sine and cosine functions. Since that time, this transformation has been extended in various directions and became e.g. the theoretical basis for the deeply developed transformation theory of second order linear differential equations. In our paper we discuss this transformation for linear Hamiltonian differential systems and discrete symplectic systems. We provide an alternative proofs to some know results and these new proofs enable to give a new insight into the topics. We also formulate some open problems associated with the discrete Bohl transformation. |
