We propose and compare several projection methods applied to variational integrators for degenerate Lagrangian systems, whose Lagrangian is of the form $L = \vartheta(q) \cdot \dot{q} - H(q)$ and thus linear in velocities. While previous…
We study discretization of Darboux integrable systems. The discretization is done by using $x$- or $y$-integrals of the considered systems. New examples of semi-discrete Darboux integrable systems are obtained.
A pluri-Lagrangian structure is an attribute of integrability for lattice equations and for hierarchies of differential equations. It combines the notion of multi-dimensional consistency (in the discrete case) or commutativity of the flows…
