The variational discretizaton of the constrained higher-order Lagrange-Poincaré equations
In this paper we investigate a variational discretization for the class of mechanical systems in presence of symmetries described by the action of a Lie group which reduces the phase space to a (non-trivial) principal bundle. By introducing a discrete connection we are able to obtain the discrete constrained higher-order Lagrange-Poincar\'e equations. These equations describe the dynamics of a ...
متن کاملInvariant Lagrangians , mechanical connections and the Lagrange - Poincaré equations
We deal with Lagrangian systems that are invariant under the action of a symmetry group. The mechanical connection is a principal connection that is associated to Lagrangians which have a kinetic energy function that is defined by a Riemannian metric. In this paper we extend this notion to arbitrary Lagrangians. We then derive the reduced Lagrange-Poincaré equations in a new fashion and we show...
متن کاملSymmetries Shared by the Poincaré Group and the Poincaré Sphere
Henri Poincaré formulated the mathematics of Lorentz transformations, known as the Poincaré group. He also formulated the Poincaré sphere for polarization optics. It is shown that these two mathematical instruments can be derived from the two-by-two representations of the Lorentz group. Wigner’s little groups for internal space-time symmetries are studied in detail. While the particle mass is a...
متن کاملChapter 16 Poincaré and Susy 16 . 1 Poincaré Invariance
A great advance in physics came when it was realized that it was better to think about motion in empty space rather than starting with what happen in the “real world” with gravity pulling things downwards, friction slowing things down, etc. First, that the laws of physics should be the same at one point as at another, i.e. that they are translation invariant, and also from one day to another, i...
