Time-dependent light-matter interactions are a widespread means by which to describe controllable experimental operations. They can be viewed as an approximation in which a third system - the control system - is treated as external within…
Classically time is kept fixed for infinitesimal variations in problems in mechanics. Apparently, there appears to be no mathematical justification in the literature for this standard procedure. This can be explained canonically by…
We introduce the concept of a graded bundle which is a natural generalization of the concept of a vector bundle and whose standard examples are higher tangent bundles T^nQ playing a fundamental role in higher order Lagrangian formalisms.…
The contact geometric structure of the thermodynamic phase space is used to introduce a novel symplectic structure on the tangent bundle of the equilibrium space. Moreover, it turns out that the equilibrium space can be interpreted as a…
Based on our previous study [IS3] on the stationary scattering theory for the Schrodinger operator on a manifold possessing an escape function we complete our investigation by doing the time-dependent counterpart. A particular class of…
In this paper we investigate a variational discretization for the class of mechanical systems in presence of symmetries described by the action of a Lie group which reduces the phase space to a (non-trivial) principal bundle. By introducing…
Second-order Lagrangian densities admitting a first-order Hamiltonian formalism are studied; namely, i) for each second-order Lagrangian density on an arbitrary fibred manifold $p\colon E\to N$ the Poincar\'e-Cartan form of which is…
We analyze the extendability of the solutions to a certain second order differential equation on a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, which is defined by a general class of forces (both prescribed on $M$ or depending on the velocity). The results…

Holomorphic vector bundles on $\mathbb C\times M$, $M$ a complex manifold, with meromorphic connections with poles of Poincar\'e rank 1 along $\{0\}\times M$ arise naturally in algebraic geometry. They are called $(TE)$-structures here.…
The author exposes the metrical multi-time Lagrange geometry of physical fields which naturally generalizes the classical Lagrangian developped by Miron and Anastasiei. In other words, one constructs a natural theory of physical fields on…
We give a summary of recent results on the explicit local form of the second-order symmetric Lorentzian manifolds in arbitrary dimension, and its global version. These spacetimes turn out to be essentially a specific subclass of plane…
Hamiltonians that are multivalued functions of momenta are of topical interest since they correspond to the Lagrangians containing higher-degree time derivatives. Incidentally, such classes of branched Hamiltonians lead to certain not too…
In this part of the series five-dimensional tangent vectors are introduced first as equivalence classes of parametrized curves and then as differential-algebraic operators that act on scalar functions. I then examine their basic algebraic…
A holographic time band is a causal incomplete boundary spacetime subregion whose causal wedge is a causal complete bulk spacetime subregion. In an AdS$_3$ spacetime with a specifically modified IR geometry, its causal wedge coincides with…
Action-dependent field theories are systems where the Lagrangian or Hamiltonian depends on new variables that encode the action. They model a larger class of field theories, including non-conservative behavior, while maintaining a…
Graded bundles are a class of graded manifolds which represent a natural generalisation of vector bundles and include the higher order tangent bundles as canonical examples. We present and study the concept of the linearisation of graded…
