Symplectic Structure in Brane Mechanics
نویسنده
چکیده
This article treats the generalisation to brane dynamics of the covariant canonical variational procedure leading to the construction of a conserved bilinear symplectic current in the manner originally developped by Witten, Zuckerman and others in the context of field theory. After a general presentation, including a review of the relationships between the various (Lagrangian, Eulerian and other) relevant kinds of variation, the procedure is illustrated by application to the particularly simple case of branes of the Dirac-GotoNambu type, in which internal fields are absent.

Symplectic Quantization of Open Strings and Noncommutativity in Branes
We show how to translate boundary conditions into constraints in the symplectic quantization method by an appropriate choice of generalized variables. This way the symplectic quantization of an open string attached to a brane in the presence of an antisymmetric background field reproduces the non commutativity of the brane coordinates.

Using odd symplectic structure constructed over tangent bundle of the symplectic manifold, we construct the simple supergeneralization of an arbitrary Hamiltonian mechanics on it. In the case, if the initial mechanics defines Killing vector of some Riemannian metric, corresponding supersymmetric mechanics can be reformulated in the terms of even symplectic structure on the supermanifold.

متن کاملOn Contact and Symplectic Lie Algeroids
In this paper, we will study compatible triples on Lie algebroids. Using a suitable decomposition for a Lie algebroid, we construct an integrable generalized distribution on the base manifold. As a result, the symplectic form on the Lie algebroid induces a symplectic form on each integral submanifold of the distribution. The induced Poisson structure on the base manifold can be represented by m...

Operating in the framework of ‘supmech’( a scheme of mechanics which aims at providing a concrete setting for the axiomatization of physics and of probability theory as required in Hilbert’s sixth problem; integrating noncommutative symplectic geometry and noncommutative probability in an algebraic setting, it associates, with every ‘experimentally accessible’ system, a symplectic algebra and o...

A universal symplectic structure for a Newtonian system including nonconservative cases can be constructed in the framework of Birkhoffian generalization of Hamiltonian mechanics. In this paper the symplectic geometry structure of Birkhoffian system is discussed, then the symplecticity of Birkhoffian phase flow is presented. Based on these properties we give a way to construct symplectic scheme...
