Exterior Differential Systems ∗

چکیده

We will denote by 〈γ1, ..., γk〉 the differential ideal generated by γ1, ..., γk, i.e. the set of elements of Ω∗(M) of the form α ∧ γ1 + ...+ α ∧ γk + β ∧ dγ1 + ...+ β ∧ dγk, for some α, ..., α, β, ..., β ∈ Ω∗(M). We also denote by 〈γ1, ..., γk〉alg the “algebraic” ideal (not necessarily closed under d) consisting of elements of the form α ∧ γ1 + ...+ α ∧ γk. The basic problem of EDS is to find integral submanifolds of M , i.e. submanifolds ι : N ↪→M such that ι∗I = (0). Example 1.2 Consider the system of ordinary differential equations y′(x) = (xyz) z′(x) = cosh(x+ y + z). ∗Notes for a talk given on 2/20/14 at Stanford University. Our primary reference is [Bry]

Exterior Differential Systems with Symmetry

We use the theory of reduction of exterior differential systems with symmetry to study the problem of using a symmetry group of a differential equation to find non-invariant solutions.

Qualitative 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...

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 ...

Hyperbolic Exterior Differential Systems and their Conservation Laws

In Part I of this paper we have introduced the concept of a hyperbolic exterior differential system of class s. For s = 0 these are essentially a geometric formulation of a first order quasi-linear hyperbolic PDE system in two independent and two dependent variables, with the group of contact transformations providing the allowable changes of variables. We then studied several geometric and ana...

Conservation Laws for Euler-lagrange Exterior Differential Systems

The calculus of variations is a powerful tool PDE, allowing detailed analysis when applicable. In this series of 2 talks I will explain how to describe them in a coordinate free manner using exterior differential systems. Using this we will be describe a particularly nice formulation of Noether’s theorem describing the space of conservation laws. From this we will be able to derive some nice co...
