Relative equilibria at singular points of the moment map
Abstract
We prove a criterion for stability of relative equilibria in symmetric Hamiltonian systems at singular points of the momentum map. This generalizes a theorem of G.W. Patrick. The method of the proof is also useful in studying the bifurcation of relative equilibria.
