We revisit quantum-classical hybrid systems of the Sudarshan type under the light of Galilean covariance. We show that these kind of hybrids cannot be given as a unitary representation of the Galilei group and at the same time conserve the…
We formulate a method of computing invariant 1-forms and structure equations of symmetry pseudo-groups of differential equations based on Cartan's method of equivalence and the moving coframe method introduced by Fels and Olver. Our…
Classical physics is reformulated as a constrained Hamiltonian system in the history phase space. Dynamics, i.e. the Euler-Lagrange equations, play the role of first-class constraints. This allows us to apply standard methods from the…
We present a systematic means to impose Galilean invariance within field theory. We begin by defining the most general background geometries consistent with Galilean invariance and then turn to applications within effective field theory,…
Equations of fluid dynamics are formulated, which hold invariant under the action of the l-conformal Galilei group. They include the conventional continuity equation, a higher order material derivative analogue of the Euler equation, and a…
The aim of this work is to study the Mannheim curves in 3-dimensional Galilean and Pseudo - Galilean space. We obtain the characterizations between the curvatures and torsions of the Mannheim partner curves.
A complete group classification of a class of variable coefficient (1+1)-dimensional telegraph equations $f(x)u_{tt}=(H(u)u_x)_x+K(u)u_x$, is given, by using a compatibility method and additional equivalence transformations. A number of new…
We conservatively extend classical elementary differential calculus to the Cartesian closed category of convergence spaces. By specializing results about the convergence space representation of directed graphs, we use Cayley graphs to…
We provide the set of equations for non-relativistic fluid dynamics on arbitrary, possibly time-dependent spaces, in general coordinates. These equations are fully covariant under either local Galilean or local Carrollian transformations,…
Using Cartan's exterior calculus, we derive a coordinate-free formulation of the Euler equations. These equations are invariant under Galileian transformations, which constitute a global symmetry. With the introduction of an appropriate…
We propose a parallel introduction to Galilean and Einsteinian relativity based on the causal structure and inertial motions. Galilean and Poincare transformations, as objects secondary to the geometrical structure, are left aside.
A simple mapping procedure is presented by which classical orbits and path integrals for the motion of a point particle in flat space can be transformed directly into those in curved space with torsion. Our procedure evolved from…
A complete system of differential invariants for equivalence of curves in the $n$-dimensional pseudo-euclidean space with respect to the action of each of the groups $K^n \lhd O(n,p,K)$, $K^n \lhd SO(n,p,K)$, $O(n,p,K)$, and $SO(n,p,K)$,…
We develop quantum electrodynamics into a kinetic-theory-like evolution equation for electrons, positrons and photons. To keep the "collision rules" simple, we make use of longitudinal and temporal photons in addition to the usual…
Motivated by the search for a Hamiltonian formulation of Einstein equations of gravity which depends in a minimal way on choices of coordinates, nor on a choice of gauge, we develop a multisymplectic formulation on the total space of the…
We proceed from the fact that the classical paths of irreducible massive spinning particle lie on a circular cylinder with the time-like axis in Minkowski space. Assuming that all the classical paths on the cylinder are gauge-equivalent, we…
We provide a complete classification of all abelian gauge invariant $p$-form theories with equations of motion depending only on the second derivative of the field---the $p$-form analogues of the Galileon scalar field theory. We construct…
Identifying an appropriate set of ``observables'' is a nontrivial task for most approaches to quantum gravity. We describe how it may be accomplished in the context of a recently proposed family of stochastic (but classical) dynamical laws…
We study nondifferentiable metrics occuring in general relativity via the method of equivalence of Cartan adapted to the Courant algebroids. We derive new local differential invariants naturally associated with the loci of…
We consider the recently introduced "galileon" field in a dynamical spacetime. When the galileon is assumed to be minimally coupled to the metric, we underline that both field equations of the galileon and the metric involve up to…
