Vidussi was the first to construct knotted Lagrangian tori in simply connected four dimensional manifolds. Fintushel and Stern introduced a second way to detect such knotting.This note demonstrates that similar examples may be distinguished…
Effective Lagrangians, including those that are spontaneously broken, contain redundant terms. It is shown that the classical equations of motion may be used to simplify the effective Lagrangian, even when quantum loops are to be…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0. Let H be a supersingular p-divisible group over k of height 2d. We show that H is uniquely determined up to isomorphism by its truncation of level d (i.e., by H[p^d]). This…
Effective Lagrangians containing arbitrary interactions of massive vector fields are quantized within the Hamiltonian path integral formalism. It is proven that correct Hamiltonian quantization of these models yields the same result as…
We prove new cases of Vojta's conjectures for surfaces in the context of function fields, with truncation equal to one and providing an effective explicit description of the exceptional set. We also prove a general and explicit result…
The maximal complexifications adapted to the Levi Civita connection for a distinguished one-parameter family of left-invariant metrics on a real semisimple Lie group G are determined. For G = SL(2,R) their realizations as invariant Riemann…
We define topological invariants of regular Lagrangian fibrations using the integral affine structure on the base space and we show that these coincide with the classes known in the literature. We also classify all symplectic types of…
In this note, we prove a $L^p$ version of the well known stability estimate for regular Lagrangian flows derived by Gianluca Crippa and Camillo De Lellis in \cite{crippa2008estimates}. As far as we know, the only estimate of this kind…
We use a recently found method to characterise all the invertible fourth-order difference equations linear in the extremal values based on the existence of a discrete Lagrangian. We also give some result on the integrability properties of…
In this paper, we first apply an integral identity on Ricci solitons to prove that closed locally conformally flat gradient Ricci solitons are of constant sectional curvature. We then generalize this integral identity to complete noncompact…
An equation is obtained to find the Lagrangian for a one-dimensional autonomous system. The continuity of the first derivative of its constant of motion is assumed. This equation is solved for a generic nonconservative autonomous system…
We study the most general solution for affine connections that are compatible with the variational principle in the Palatini formalism for the Einstein-Hilbert action (with possible minimally coupled matter terms). We find that there is a…
We prove the non-uniqueness theorem for the chronological products of a gauge model. We use a cohomological language where the cochains are chronological products, gauge invariance means a cocycle restriction and coboundaries are…
The jet bundle description of time-dependent mechanics is revisited. The constraint algorithm for singular Lagrangians is discussed and an exhaustive description of the constraint functions is given. By means of auxiliary connections we…
This work is mainly devoted to constructing a multisymplectic description of Lovelock's gravity, which is an extension of General Relativity. We establish a Griffiths variational problem for the Lovelock Lagrangian, obtaining the geometric…
We build the coherent states for a family of solvable singular Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians obtained through supersymmetric quantum mechanics from the truncated oscillator. The main feature of such systems is the fact that their…
A method for constructing Lagrangians for the Lie transformation groups is explained. As examples, the Lagrangians for real plane rotations and affine transformations of the real line are constructed.
We study a class of weakly coupled Hamilton-Jacobi systems with a specific aim to perform a qualitative analysis in the spirit of weak KAM theory. Our main achievement is the definition of a family of related action functionals containing…
A Palatini-type action for Einstein and Gauss-Bonnet gravity with non-trivial torsion is proposed. Three-form flux is incorporated via a deformation of the Riemann tensor, and consistency of the Palatini variational principle requires the…
With the goal of giving evidence for the theoretical consistency of the Horava Theory, we perform a Hamiltonian analysis on a classical model suitable for analyzing its effective dynamics at large distances. The model is the lowest-order…
