Evolutionary Forms: the Generation of Differential-geometrical Structures. (symmetries and Conservation Laws.)
Evolutionary forms, as well as exterior forms, are skew-symmetric differential forms. But in contrast to the exterior forms, the basis of evolutionary forms is deforming manifolds (manifolds with unclosed metric forms). Such forms possess a peculiarity, namely, the closed inexact exterior forms are obtained from that. The closure conditions of inexact exterior form (vanishing the differentials ...
متن کاملQualitative investigation of Hamiltonian systems by application of skew-symmetric differential forms
A great number of works is devoted to qualitative investigation of Hamiltonian systems. One of tools of such investigation is the method of skew-symmetric differential forms [1-3]. In present work, under investigation Hamiltonian systems in addition to skew-symmetric exterior differential forms, skew-symmetric differential forms, which differ in their properties from exterior forms, are used. T...
متن کاملA primer on exterior differential calculus
A pedagogical application-oriented introduction to the calculus of exterior differential forms on differential manifolds is presented. Stokes’ theorem, the Lie derivative, linear connections and their curvature, torsion and non-metricity are discussed. Numerous examples using differential calculus are given and some detailed comparisons are made with their traditional vector counterparts. In pa...
متن کاملFinite Element Exterior Calculus for Parabolic Evolution Problems on Riemannian Hypersurfaces
Over the last ten years, the Finite Element Exterior Calculus (FEEC) has been developed as a general framework for linear mixed variational problems, their numerical approximation by mixed methods, and their error analysis. The basic approach in FEEC, pioneered by Arnold, Falk, and Winther in two seminal articles in 2006 and 2010, interprets these problems in the setting of Hilbert complexes, l...
متن کاملA Survey of Direct Methods for Solving Variational Problems
This study presents a comparative survey of direct methods for solving Variational Problems. Thisproblems can be used to solve various differential equations in physics and chemistry like RateEquation for a chemical reaction. There are procedures that any type of a differential equation isconvertible to a variational problem. Therefore finding the solution of a differential equation isequivalen...
