Symmetries in Differential Geometry: A Computational Approach to Prolongations
Abstract. The aim of this work is to develop a systematic manner to close overdetermined systems arising from conformal Killing tensors (CKT). The research performs this action for 1-tensor and 2-tensors. This research makes it possible to develop a new general method for any rank of CKT. This method can also be applied to other types of Killing equations, as well as to overdetermined systems c...
متن کاملProlongations in differential algebra
We develop the theory of higher prolongations of algebraic varieties over fields in arbitrary characteristic with commuting Hasse-Schmidt derivations. Prolongations were introduced by A. Buium in the context of fields of characteristic 0 with a single derivation. We give a new construction of higher prolongations in a more general context, inspired by work of P. Vojta. Generalizing a result of ...
متن کاملCoefficients of prolongations for symmetries of ODEs
Sophus Lie developed a systematic way to solve ODEs. He found that transformations which form a continuous group and leave a differential equation invariant can be used to simplify the equation. Lie’s method uses the infinitesimal generator of these point transformations. These are symmetries of the equation mapping solutions into solutions. Lie’s methods did not find widespread use in part bec...
متن کاملA Domain Theoretic Approach to Computational Geometry
In computing applications such as CAD/CAM, that involve modelling of real world objects, a wide range of commonly used and generally accepted algorithms has been developed. Many of them, however, are based on invalid assumptions about the capability of the machines that implement them. For example, it has been shown that some of the most basic predicates and functions used in classical computat...
متن کاملA gauge-theoretic description of μ-prolongations, and μ-symmetries of differential equations
We consider generalized (possibly depending on fields as well as on space-time variables) gauge transformations and gauge symmetries in the context of general – that is, possibly non variational nor covariant – differential equations. In this case the relevant principal bundle admits the first jet bundle (of the phase manifold) as an associated bundle, at difference with standard Yang-Mills the...
