Multisymplectic Geometry, Variational Integrators, and Nonlinear PDEs
This paper presents a geometric-variational approach to continuous and discrete mechanics and field theories. Using multisymplectic geometry, we show that the existence of the fundamental geometric structures as well as their preservation along solutions can be obtained directly from the variational principle. In particular, we prove that a unique multisymplectic structure is obtained by taking...
متن کاملGenerating Functionals and Lagrangian PDEs
The main goal of this paper is to derive an alternative characterization of the multisymplectic form formula for classical field theories using the geometry of the space of boundary values. We review the concept of Type-I/II generating functionals defined on the space of boundary data of a Lagrangian field theory. On the Lagrangian side, we define an analogue of Jacobi’s solution to the Hamilto...
متن کاملHIDDEN CONVEXITY IN SOME NONLINEAR PDEs FROM GEOMETRY AND PHYSICS
There is a prejudice among some specialists of non linear partial differential equations and differential geometry: convex analysis is an elegant theory but too rigid to address some of the most interesting and challenging problems in their field. Convex analysis is mostly attached to elliptic and parabolic equations of variational origin, for which a suitable convex potential can be exhibited ...
متن کاملA Γ-structure on Lagrangian Grassmannians
For n odd the Lagrangian Grassmannian of R is a Γ-manifold.
متن کاملGeometry of Chow Quotients of Grassmannians
We consider Kapranov’s Chow quotient compactification of the moduli space of ordered n-tuples of hyperplanes in P r−1 in linear general position. For r = 2, this is canonically identified with the Grothendieck-Knudsen compactification of M0,n which has, among others, the following nice properties: (1) modular meaning: stable pointed rational curves; (2) canonical description of limits of one-pa...
