Reduction of Singular Lagrangians of Higher-order
Given a singular non-autonomous Lagrangian of higher order we construct a reduced evolution space of the same order and a local regular Lagrangian on it which is gauge equivalent to the original one. The general geometrical framework used is the theory of almost stable tangent geometry of higher order introduced in 17]. We show that higher order almost stable manifols can be endowed with a loca...
متن کاملRouth Reduction by Stages
This paper deals with the Lagrangian analogue of symplectic or point reduction by stages. We develop Routh reduction as a reduction technique that preserves the Lagrangian nature of the dynamics. To do so we heavily rely on the relation between Routh reduction and cotangent symplectic reduction. The main results in this paper are: (i) we develop a class of so called magnetic Lagrangian systems ...
متن کاملSingular Lagrangians in Supermechanics
The time evolution operator K is introduced in the graded context and its main properties are discussed. In particular, the operator K is used to analize the projectability of constraint functions arising in the Lagrangian formalism for singular Lagrangians.
متن کاملDiscrete Routh reduction
This paper develops the theory of Abelian Routh reduction for discrete mechanical systems and applies it to the variational integration of mechanical systems with Abelian symmetry. The reduction of variational Runge–Kutta discretizations is considered, as well as the extent to which symmetry reduction and discretization commute. These reduced methods allow the direct simulation of dynamical fea...
متن کاملChapter 2 Discrete Routh Reduction
This chapter investigates the relationship between Routh symmetry reduction and time discretization for Lagrangian systems. Within the framework of discrete variational mechanics, a discrete Routh reduction theory is constructed for the case of abelian group actions, and extended to systems with constraints and non-conservative forcing or dissipation. Variational Runge–Kutta discretizations are...
