Introduces a new phase space for 2D supersymmetric sigma models.

A first-order Lagrangian $L^\nabla$ variationally equivalent to the second-order Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian is introduced. Such a Lagrangian depends on a symmetric linear connection, but the dependence is covariant under diffeomorphisms. The variational problem defined by $L^\nabla$ is proved to be regular and its H…

We consider the geometric formulation of the Hamiltonian formalism for field theory in terms of {\em Hamiltonian connections} and {\em multisymplectic forms}. In this framework the covariant Hamilton equations for Mechanics and field theory are defined in terms of multisymplectic $(n+2)$--forms, where $n$ is the dimens…

Bayesian model averaging fails under covariate shift, affecting neural networks' performance.

New boundary conditions improve Hamiltonian analysis in GR.

In this contribution we present an intrinsic description of time-variant Port Hamiltonian systems as they appear in modeling and control theory. This formulation is based on the splitting of the state bundle and the use of appropriate covariant derivatives, which guarantees that the structure of the equations is invari…

Paper introduces Floer theory for field theories, proving periodic solutions for particle-field systems.

In this paper we study the infinitesimal symmetries, Newtonoid vector fields, infinitesimal Noether symmetries and conservation laws of Hamiltonian systems. Using the dynamical covariant derivative and Jacobi endomorphism on the cotangent bundle we find the invariant equations of infinitesimal symmetries and Newtonoid …

This paper concerns the development and application of the multisymplectic Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalism for nonlinear partial differential equations. In this theory, solutions of a PDE are sections of a fiber bundle $Y$ over a base manifold $X$ of dimension $n$+$1, typically taken to be spacetime. Given a conn…

A method to explain disease transformation using biomarker covariance matrices.

In this paper we study the geometrical structures on the cotangent bundle using the notions of adapted tangent structure and regular vector fields. We prove that the dynamical covariant derivative on $T^{*}M$ fix a nonlinear connection for a given $\mathcal{J}$-regular vector field. Using the Legendre transformation in…

HMC improves Gaussian sampling efficiency with long, random steps.

We study generalized electric/magnetic duality in Abelian gauge theory by combining techniques from locally covariant quantum field theory and Cheeger-Simons differential cohomology on the category of globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifolds. Our approach generalizes previous treatments using the Hamiltonian formalism …

Symplectic GP regression models Hamiltonian systems for particle tracing.

Mackey showed that for a compact Lie group $K$, the pair $(K,C^{0}(K))$ has a unique non-trivial irreducible covariant pair of representations. We study the relevance of this result to the unitary equivalence of quantizations for an infinite-dimensional family of $K\times K$ invariant polarizations on $T^{\ast}K$. The …

Solves steering problem with continuous time, Hilbert-Schmidt cost, and matrix ODEs.

The paper explores symmetries and conserved charges on pre-symplectic manifolds.

We point out a new view on slow invariant manifolds (SIM) in dynamical systems which departs from a purely geometric covariant characterization implying coordinate independency. The fundamental idea is to treat the SIM as a well-defined geometric object in phase space and elucidate characterizing geometric properties t…

The Poisson--Weil sigma model, worked out by us recently, stems from gauging a Hamiltonian Lie group symmetry of the target space of the Poisson sigma model. Upon gauge fixing of the BV master action, it yields interesting topological field theories such as the 2--dimensional Donaldson-Witten topological gauge theory a…

A geometric multisymplectic formulation of the classical BRST symmetry of constrained first-order classical field theories is described. To effect this we introduce graded analogues of the bundles and manifolds of the multisymplectic formulation of first-order field theories. The Lagrange-d'Alembert formalism is also d…

We discuss the interplay between lagrangian distributions and connections in symplectic geometry, beginning with the traditional case of symplectic manifolds and then passing to the more general context of poly- and multisymplectic structures on fiber bundles, which is relevant for the covariant hamiltonian formulation…

The main purpose in the present paper is to build a Hamiltonian theory for fields which is consistent with the principles of relativity. For this we consider detailed geometric pictures of Lepage theories in the spirit of Dedecker and try to stress out the interplay between the Lepage-Dedecker (LP) description and the …

The geometrical structure known as the Tulczyjew triple has proved to be very useful in describing mechanical systems, even those with singular Lagrangians or subject to constraints. Starting from basic concepts of variational calculus, we construct the Tulczyjew triple for first-order Field Theory. The important featu…

Study investigates Hamiltonian systems in fibered almost-symplectic manifolds.

The geometrical structure known as Tulczyjew triple has been used with success in analytical mechanics and first order field theory to describe a wide range of physical systems including Lagrangian/Hamiltonian systems with constraints and/or sources, or with singular Lagrangian. Starting from the first principles of th…

The aim of this paper is to present the main geometrical objects on the dual 1-jet bundle $J^{1*}(\cal{T},M)$ (this is the polymomentum phase space of the De Donder-Weyl covariant Hamiltonian formulation of field theory) that characterize our approach of multi-time Hamilton geometry. In this direction, we firstly intro…

The study examines stability of Hamiltonian Poisson integrators on both integrable and non-integrable systems.

The multisymplectic formalism of field theories developed by many mathematicians over the last fifty years is extended in this work to deal with manifolds that have boundaries. In particular, we develop a multisymplectic framework for first order covariant Hamiltonian field theories on manifolds with boundaries. This w…

New algorithms improve MCMC efficiency for complex distributions.

The paper explores deformations of quasi-Hamiltonian spaces to Hamiltonian spaces.

We propose a general framework to study the stability of the subspace spanned by $P$ consecutive eigenvectors of a generic symmetric matrix ${\bf H}_0$, when a small perturbation is added. This problem is relevant in various contexts, including quantum dissipation (${\bf H}_0$ is then the Hamiltonian) and financial ris…

This paper studies the geometry of the group of all co-Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a compact cosymplectic manifold $(M, ω, η)$. The fix-point theory for co-Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms is studied, and we use Arnold's conjecture to predict the exact minimum number of fix point that such a diffeomorphism must have (thi…

Let (M,w) be a compact symplectic 2n-manifold, and g a Riemannian metric on M compatible with w. For instance, g could be Kahler, with Kahler form w. Consider compact Lagrangian submanifolds L of M. We call L Hamiltonian stationary, or H-minimal, if it is a critical point of the volume functional under Hamiltonian defo…

The paper develops a theory linking Hamiltonian and quasi-Hamiltonian manifolds.

Gauss diagrams' properties can change with Hamiltonian cycle choice.

We classify compact, connected Hamiltonian and quasi-Hamiltonian manifolds of cohomogeneity one (which is the same as being multiplicity free of rank one). Here the group acting is a compact connected Lie group (simply connected in the quasi-Hamiltonian case). This work is a concretization of the more general classific…
