In this PhD thesis we introduce a generalized fractional calculus of variations. We consider variational problems containing generalized fractional integrals and derivatives, and study them using standard (indirect) and direct methods. In…
Two applications of the Noether method for fluids and plasmas are presented based on the Euler-Lagrange and Euler-Poincare variational principles, which depend on whether the dynamical fields are to be varied independently or not,…
It is well-known that all 2d models of gravity---including theories with nonvanishing torsion and dilaton theories---can be solved exactly, if matter interactions are absent. An absolutely (in space and time) conserved quantity determines…

We address the generalized variational problem of Herglotz from an optimal control point of view. Using the theory of optimal control, we derive a generalized Euler-Lagrange equation, a transversality condition, a DuBois-Reymond necessary…
We discuss the use of inequalities to obtain the solution of certain variational problems on time scales.

Invariance theorems in analytical mechanics, such as Noether's theorem, can be adapted to continuum mechanics. For this purpose, it is useful to give a functional representation of the motion and to interpret the groups of invariance with…

The direct method based on the definition of conserved currents of a system of differential equations is applied to compute the space of conservation laws of the (1+1)-dimensional wave equation in the light-cone coordinates. Then Noether's…
Using the commutativity of a general variation with the time differentiation we discuss both global and local (gauge) symmetries of a lagrangian from a unified point of view. The Noether considerations are thereby applicable for both cases.…
