Solving non-holonomic Lagrangian dynamics in terms of almost product structures.

Manuel de León, David Martín de Diego (1996)

Extracta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Given a Lagrangian system with non-holonomic constraints we construct an almost product structure on the tangent bundle of the configuration manifold such that the projection of the Euler-Lagrange vector field gives the dynamics of the system. In a degenerate case, we develop a constraint algorithm which determines a final constraint submanifold where a completely consistent dynamics of the initial system exists.

On the differential equations of the classical and relativistic dynamics for certain generalised Lagrangian functions

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti

Similarity:

One studies the differential equations of the movement of certain classical and relativistic systems for some special Lagrangian functions. One considers particularly the case in which the problem presents cyclic coordinates. Some electrodynamical applications are studied.

Symmetries of a dynamical system represented by singular Lagrangians

Monika Havelková (2012)

Communications in Mathematics

Similarity:

Dynamical properties of singular Lagrangian systems differ from those of classical Lagrangians of the form L = T - V . Even less is known about symmetries and conservation laws of such Lagrangians and of their corresponding actions. In this article we study symmetries and conservation laws of a concrete singular Lagrangian system interesting in physics. We solve the problem of determining all point symmetries of the Lagrangian and of its Euler-Lagrange form, i.e. of the action. It is known that...
