The main goal of this paper is to derive an alternative characterization of the multisymplectic form formula for classical field theories using the geometry of the space of boundary values. We review the concept of Type-I/II generating functionals defined on the space of boundary data of a Lagrangian field theory. On the Lagrangian side, we define an analogue of Jacobi’s solution to the Hamilto...

A nonstandard wave equation, established by Galbrun in 1931, is used to study sound propagation in nonuniform flows. Galbrun's equation describes exactly the same physical phenomenon as the linearized Euler's equations (LEE) but is derived from an Eulerian-Lagrangian description and written only in term of the Lagrangian perturbation of the displacement. This equation has interesting properties...

A survey of topics of recent interest in Hamiltonian and Lagrangian dynamical systems, including accessible discussions of regularization of the central force problem; inequivalent Lagrangians and Hamiltonians; constants of central force motion; a general discussion of higher-order Lagrangians and Hamiltonians with examples from Bohmian quantum mechanics, the Korteweg-de Vries equation and the ...

Using two new well defined 4-dimensional potential vectors, we formulate the classical Maxwell’s field theory in a form which has manifest Lorentz covariance and SO(2) duality symmetry in the presence of magnetic sources. We set up a consistent Lagrangian for the theory. Then from the action principle we get both Maxwell’s equation and the equation of motion of a dyon moving in the electromagne...

We establish a result concerning the so-called Lagrangian controllability of the Euler equation for incompressible perfect fluids in dimension 3. More precisely we consider a connected bounded domain of R and two smooth contractible sets of fluid particles, surrounding the same volume. We prove that given any initial velocity field, one can find a boundary control and a time interval such that ...

We consider a one-parameter family of non-evolutionary partial differential equations which includes the integrable Camassa-Holm equation and a new integrable equation first isolated by Degasperis and Procesi. A Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulation is presented for the whole family of equations, and we discuss how this fits into a bi-Hamiltonian framework in the integrable cases. The Hamilton...

Problems of optimal control are considered in the neoclassical Bolza format, which centers on states and velocities and relies on nonsmooth analysis. Subgradient versions of the EulerLagrange equation and the Hamiltonian equation are shown to be necessary for the optimality of a trajectory, moreover in a newly sharpened form that makes these conditions equivalent to each other. At the same time...

Interaction of a quasi one-dimensional soliton of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP-II) equation with a moving local dipole, described by an additional term in the equation, is investigated analytically by means of the Lagrangian-averaging (Whitham's) technique. The main result of the interaction is the generation of leftand right-going flexural waves on the crest of the soliton. The generated fle...

One of the most important topic that consider in recent years by researcher is absolute value equation (AVE). The absolute value equation seems to be a useful tool in optimization since it subsumes the linear complementarity problem and thus also linear programming and convex quadratic programming. This paper introduce a new method for solving absolute value equation. To do this, we transform a...
