The binary bracket of a Courant algebroid structure on $(E,\langle \cdot,\cdot \rangle)$ can be extended to a $n$-ary bracket on $\Gamma(E)$, yielding a multi-Courant algebroid. These $n$-ary brackets form a Poisson algebra and were…
In this work, we present a new approach to the construction of variational integrators. In the general case, the estimation of the action integral in a time interval $[q_k,q_{k+1}]$ is used to construct a symplectic map $(q_k,q_{k+1})\to…
