We refer to Krupka’s variational sequence, i.e. the quotient of the de Rham sequence on a finite order jet space with respect to a ‘variationally trivial’ subsequence. Among the morphisms of the variational sequence there are the Euler-Lagrange operator and the Helmholtz operator. In this note we show that the Lie derivative operator passes to the quotient in the variational sequence. Then we define the variational Lie derivative as an operator on the sheaves of the variational sequence. Explicit...
The (infinitesimal) symmetries of first and second-order partial differential equations represented by connections on fibered manifolds are studied within the framework of certain “strong horizontal“ structures closely related to the equations in question. The classification and global description of the symmetries is presented by means of some natural compatible structures, eġḃy vertical prolongations of connections.
We classify nonconstant entire local minimizers of the standard Ginzburg–Landau functional for maps in satisfying a natural energy bound. Up to translations and rotations,such solutions of the Ginzburg–Landau system are given by an explicit solution equivariant under the action of the orthogonal group.
Let be a Kähler surface and be a closed symplectic surface which is smoothly immersed in . Let be the Kähler angle of in . We first deduce the Euler-Lagrange equation of the functional in the class of symplectic surfaces. It is , where is the mean curvature vector of in , is the complex structure compatible with the Kähler form in , which is an elliptic equation. We call such a surface a symplectic critical surface. We show that, if is a Kähler-Einstein surface with nonnegative...
Let be a symplectic manifold admitting a metaplectic structure (a symplectic analogue of the Riemannian spin structure) and a torsion-free symplectic connection . Symplectic Killing spinor fields for this structure are sections of the symplectic spinor bundle satisfying a certain first order partial differential equation and they are the main object of this paper. We derive a necessary condition which has to be satisfied by a symplectic Killing spinor field. Using this condition one may easily...
Exterior differential forms with values in the (Kostant’s) symplectic spinor bundle on a manifold with a given metaplectic structure are decomposed into invariant subspaces. Projections to these invariant subspaces of a covariant derivative associated to a torsion-free symplectic connection are described.
