Shells of monotone curves

Josef Mikeš, Karl Strambach (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We determine in n the form of curves C corresponding to strictly monotone functions as well as the components of affine connections for which any image of C under a compact-free group Ω of affinities containing the translation group is a geodesic with respect to . Special attention is paid to the case that Ω contains many dilatations or that C is a curve in 3 . If C is a curve in 3 and Ω is the translation group then we calculate not only the components of the curvature and the Weyl tensor but...

Special compositions in affinely connected spaces without a torsion

Zlatanov, Georgi (2011)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 53B05, 53B99.Let AN be an affinely connected space without a torsion. With the help of N independent vector fields and their reciprocal covectors is built an affinor which defines a composition Xn ×Xm (n+m = N). The structure is integrable. New characteristics by the coefficients of the derivative equations are found for special compositions, studied in [1], [3]. Two-dimensional manifolds, named as bridges, which cut the both base manifolds of the composition...

Sur le problème inverse du calcul des variations : existence de lagrangiens associés à un spray dans le cas isotrope

Joseph Grifone, Zoltán Muzsnay (1999)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

En utilisant la version de Spencer-Goldschmidt du théorème de Cartan-Kähler nous étudions les conditions nécessaires et suffisantes pour qu’un système d’équations différentielles ordinaires du second ordre soit le système d’Euler-Lagrange associé à un lagrangien régulier. Dans la thèse de Z. Muzsnay cette technique a été déjà appliquée pour donner une version moderne du papier classique de Douglas qui traite le cas de la dimension 2. Ici nous considérons le cas où la dimension est arbitraire, nous...
