Non-linear connections on phase space and the Lorentz force law
نویسنده
چکیده
The equations of parallel transport for a non-linear connection on phase space are examined. It is shown that, for a free-particle Lagrangian, the connection term first-order in momentum reproduces the geodesic equation of General Relativity and the term zeroth-order in the momentum reproduces the Lorentz electromagnetic force law. Hence from one mathematical expression, a non-linear parallel transport equation, one can derive the interaction laws for both the gravitational and electromagnetic forces. These equations are free of the difficulties associated with formalism of Weyl, which forms the basis for the theory of Yang and Mills.

Nonlinear inelastic dynamic analysis of space steel frames with semi-rigid connections in urban buildings
Applied studies addressing semi-rigid connections have been limited. Scant information exists in regulations except little brief information. Therefore, this research analyzes the behavior of three-dimensional steel frames and semi-rigid connections based on beam-column method and non-linear dynamic analysis. Stability functions and geometric stiffness matrix were used to study the non-linear g...
متن کاملUniversal Dynamics of Spontaneous Lorentz Violation and a New Spin-Dependent Inverse-Square Law Force
We study the universal low-energy dynamics associated with the spontaneous breaking of Lorentz invariance down to spatial rotations. The effective Lagrangian for the associated Goldstone field can be uniquely determined by the non-linear realization of a broken time diffeomorphism symmetry, up to some overall mass scales. It has previously been shown that this symmetry breaking pattern gives ri...
متن کاملTranslation Surfaces of the Third Fundamental Form in Lorentz-Minkowski Space
In this paper we study translation surfaces with the non-degenerate third fundamental form in Lorentz- Minkowski space $mathbb{L}^{3}$. As a result, we classify translation surfaces satisfying an equation in terms of the position vector field and the Laplace operator with respect to the third fundamental form $III$ on the surface.
متن کاملFrom the Lorentz Transformation Group in Pseudo-Euclidean Spaces to Bi-gyrogroups
The Lorentz transformation of order $(m=1,n)$, $ninNb$, is the well-known Lorentz transformation of special relativity theory. It is a transformation of time-space coordinates of the pseudo-Euclidean space $Rb^{m=1,n}$ of one time dimension and $n$ space dimensions ($n=3$ in physical applications). A Lorentz transformation without rotations is called a {it boost}. Commonly, the ...
متن کاملNon-Linear Behavior of New (FSFN) Moment Resisting Connections in Comparison to the Existing KBB Connections in Steel Frames
After Northridge (1994) and Kobe (1995) earthquakes, several studies have been conducted to improve the seismic performance of steel structures. In this investigation, new steel moment-resisting connections (FSFN) developed by the authors, were studied by the non-linear numerical analysis. These connections were single-sided beam-to-column assemblies that are representative of exterior beam-to-...
