Properties of Hamiltonian symmetry flows on hyper-bolic Euler-type Liouvillean equations E ′ EL are analyzed. Description of their Noether symmetries assigned to the integrals for these equations is obtained. The integrals provide Miura transformations from E ′ EL to the multi-component wave equations E. By using these substitutions, we generate an infinite-Hamiltonian commu-tative subalgebra A...

In this manuscript we are interested in stored energy functionals W defined on the set of d × d matrices, which not only fail to be convex but satisfy limdet ξ→0+ W (ξ) = ∞. We initiate a study which we hope would lead to a theory for the existence and uniqueness of minimizers of functionals of the form E(u) = ∫ Ω (W (∇u) − F · u)dx, as well as their Euler–Lagrange equations. The techniques dev...

Avants et al.’s goal in writing this paper is to propose a new deformable registration method and compare it to existing methods using brain MRI data. The method they propose is called symmetric image normalization (SyN). The method is meant to achieve better registration by maximizing cross correlation within the space of diffeomorphic maps, and the authors provide the Euler-Lagrange equations...

We investigate the minimal and isoperimetric surface problems in a large class of sub-Riemannian manifolds, the so-called Vertically Rigid spaces. We construct an adapted connection for such spaces and, using the variational tools of Bryant, Griffiths and Grossman, derive succinct forms of the Euler-Lagrange equations for critical points for the associated variational problems. Using the Euler-...

The piecewise constant level set method (PCLSM) has recently emerged as a variant of the level set method for variational interphase problems. Traditionally, the Euler-Lagrange equations are solved by some iterative numerical method for PDEs. Normally the speed is slow. In this work, we focus on the piecewise constant level set method (PCLSM) applied to the multiphase Mumford-Shah model for ima...

Derivatives and integrals of non-integer order were introduced more than three centuries ago, but only recently gained more attention due to their application on nonlocal phenomena. In this context, the Caputo derivatives are the most popular approach to fractional calculus among physicists, since differential equations involving Caputo derivatives require regular boundary conditions. Motivated...

The Euler-Lagrange equation plays an important role in the minimization problems of the calculus of variations. This paper employs the differential transformation method (DTM) for finding the solution of the Euler-Lagrange equation which arise from problems of calculus of variations. DTM provides an analytical solution in the form of an infinite power series with easily computable components. S...

A new approach to the solution of optimal control problems for mechanical systems is proposed. It is based on a direct discretization of the Lagrange-d’Alembert principle for the system (as opposed to using, for example, collocation or multiple shooting to enforce the equations of motion as constraints). The resulting forced discrete Euler-Lagrange equations then serve as constraints for the op...
