About boundary terms in higher order theories

Lorenzo Fatibene, Mauro Francaviglia, S. Mercadante (2011)

Communications in Mathematics

It is shown that when in a higher order variational principle one fixes fields at the boundary leaving the field derivatives unconstrained, then the variational principle (in particular the solution space) is not invariant with respect to the addition of boundary terms to the action, as it happens instead when the correct procedure is applied. Examples are considered to show how leaving derivatives of fields unconstrained affects the physical interpretation of the model. This is justified in particular...

About duality and Killing tensors

Baleanu, Dumitru (2000)

Proceedings of the 19th Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

Summary: In this paper the isometries of the dual space were investigated. The dual structural equations of a Killing tensor of order two were found. The general results are applied to the case of the flat space.

Accurate eigenvalue asymptotics for the magnetic Neumann Laplacian

Soeren Fournais, Bernard Helffer (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Motivated by the theory of superconductivity and more precisely by the problem of the onset of superconductivity in dimension two, many papers devoted to the analysis in a semi-classical regime of the lowest eigenvalue of the Schrödinger operator with magnetic field have appeared recently. Here we would like to mention the works by Bernoff-Sternberg, Lu-Pan, Del Pino-Felmer-Sternberg and Helffer-Morame and also Bauman-Phillips-Tang for the case of a disc. In the present paper we settle one important...

Affine connections on almost para-cosymplectic manifolds

Adara M. Blaga (2011)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Identities for the curvature tensor of the Levi-Cività connection on an almost para-cosymplectic manifold are proved. Elements of harmonic theory for almost product structures are given and a Bochner-type formula for the leaves of the canonical foliation is established.

Affine liftings of torsion-free connections to Weil bundles

Jacek Dębecki (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

This paper contains a classification of all affine liftings of torsion-free linear connections on n-dimensional manifolds to any linear connections on Weil bundles under the condition that n ≥ 3.
