The fundamental form of a second-order homogeneous Lagrangian in two variables

چکیده

We construct, for a second-order homogeneous Lagrangian in two independent variables, a differential 2-form with the property that it is closed precisely when the Lagrangian is null. This is similar to the property of the ‘fundamental Lepage equivalent’ associated with first-order Lagrangians defined on jets of sections of a fibred manifold. We show that this form may be defined on a fourth-order frame bundle but is not, in general, projectable to a bundle of contact elements.

The fundamental form of a homogeneous Lagrangian in two independent variables

We construct, for a homogeneous Lagrangian of arbitrary order in two independent variables, a differential 2-form with the property that it is closed precisely when the Lagrangian is null. This is similar to the property of the ‘fundamental Lepage equivalent’ associated with first-order Lagrangians defined on jets of sections of a fibred manifold.

Noether Symmetry in f(T) Theory at the anisotropic universe

As it is well known, symmetry plays a crucial role in the theoretical physics. On other hand, the Noether symmetry is a useful procedure to select models motivated at a fundamental level, and to discover the exact solution to the given lagrangian. In this work, Noether symmetry in f(T) theory on a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type I universe is considered. We discuss the Lagran...

تبدیلات دوگانگی آبلی استاندارد در گرانش f(T)

According to the perturbation order, the equations of motion of low-energy string effective action are the generalized Einstein equations. Thus, by making use of the conformal transformation of  the metric tensor, it is possible to map the low-energy string effective action into f(T) gravity, relating the dilaton field to the torsion scalar. Considering a homogeneous and isotropic universe and ...

New Lagrangian Relaxation Based Algorithm for Resource Scheduling with Homogeneous Subproblems

Solution oscillations, often caused by identical solutions to the homogeneous subproblems, constitute a severe and inherent disadvantage in applying Lagrangian relaxation based methods to resource scheduling problems with discrete decision variables. In this paper, the solution oscillations caused by homogeneous subproblems in the Lagrangian relaxation framework are identified and analyzed. Bas...
