Covariant hamiltonian dynamics

چکیده

We discuss the covariant formulation of the dynamics of particles with abelian and non-abelian gauge charges in external fields. Using this formulation we develop an algorithm for the construction of constants of motion, which makes use of a generalization of the concept of Killing vectors and tensors in differential geometry. We apply the formalism to the motion of classical charges in abelian and non-abelian monopole fields. ∗ e-mail: [email protected]

Genuine Covariant Description of Hamiltonian Dynamics

After reviewing the covariant description of Hamiltonian dynamics, some applications are done to the non-relativistic isotropic three-dimensional harmonic oscillator, Rovelli's model, and SO(3, 1) BF theories.

We provide a Hamiltonian analysis of the Mixmaster Universe dynamics on the base of a standard Arnowitt-Deser-Misner Hamiltonian approach, showing the covariant nature of its chaotic behaviour with respect to the choice of any time variable, from the point of view either of the dynamical systems theory, either of the statistical mechanics one.

Deuteron Electromagnetic Properties with a Poincaré-covariant Current Operator within Front-form Hamiltonian Dynamics

Deuteron elastic and deep inelastic electromagnetic properties have been studied within the front-form Hamiltonian dynamics, using a Poincaré-covariant current operator. The deuteron elastic form factors are strongly sensitive to different realistic N−N interactions, while the relevance of different nucleon form factor models is huge for A(Q), weak for B(Q) and negligible for the tensor polariz...

Covariant quantization of membrane dynamics

A Lorentz covariant quantization of membrane dynamics is defined, which also leaves unbroken the full three dimensional diffeomorphism invariance of the membrane. This makes it possible to understand the reductions to string theory directly in terms of the Poisson brackets and constraints of the theories. Two approaches to the covariant quantization are studied, Dirac quantization and a quantiz...

Metafluid Dynamics

In this paper we define a noncommutative (NC) Metafluid Dynamics [1]. We applied the Dirac’s quantization to the Metafluid Dynamics on NC spaces. First class constraints were found which are the same obtained in [3]. The gauge covariant quantization of the non-linear equations of fields on noncommutative spaces were studied. We have found the extended Hamiltonian which leads to equations of mot...

Canonical Lagrangian Dynamics and General Relativity

Building towards a more covariant approach to canonical classical and quantum gravity we outline an approach to constrained dynamics that de-emphasizes the role of the Hamiltonian phase space and highlights the role of the Lagrangian phase space. We identify a “Lagrangian one-form” to replace the standard symplectic one-form, which we use to construct the canonical constraints and an associated...
