Value problems for differential forms on -domains.
We discuss variational integrals which are defined on differential forms associated with a given first order elliptic complex. This general framework provides us with better understanding of the concepts of convexity, even in the classical setting
We will pose the inverse problem question within the Krupka variational sequence framework. In particular, the interplay of inverse problems with symmetry and invariance properties will be exploited considering that the cohomology class of the variational Lie derivative of an equivalence class of forms, closed in the variational sequence, is trivial. We will focalize on the case of symmetries of globally defined field equations which are only locally variational and prove that variations of local...
A brief exposition of Lie algebroids, followed by a discussion of vector forms and their brackets in this context - and a formula for these brackets in “deformed” Lie algebroids.
