Deformed Hamiltonian vector fields and Lagrangian fibrations

Certain dissipative physical systems closely resemble Hamiltonian systems in R2n, but with the canonical equation for one of the variables in each conjugate pair rescaled by a real parameter. To generalise these dynamical systems to symplectic manifolds in this paper we introduce and study the properties of deformed Hamiltonian vector fields on Lagrangian fibrations. We describe why these objects have some interesting applications to symplectic geometry and discuss how their physical interpretation motivates new problems in mathematics.
