We consider Lagrangians in Hamilton's principle defined on the tangent space $TG$ of a Lie group $G$. Invariance of such a Lagrangian under the action of $G$ leads to the symmetry-reduced Euler-Lagrange equations called the Euler-Poincar\'e…
In this paper, to fit the multi-scale perturbations, the single-parameter Lie transform perturbation theory given in [Ann Phys, 151 1 (1983)] is generalized to a multi-parameter case, which provides a formal solution of the new Lagrangian…
Pluri-Lagrangian systems are variational systems with the multi-dimensional consistency property. This notion has its roots in the theory of pluriharmonic functions, in the Z-invariant models of statistical mechanics, in the theory of…
We define a higher analogue of Dirac structures on a manifold M. Under a regularity assumption, higher Dirac structures can be described by a foliation and a (not necessarily closed, non-unique) differential form on M, and are equivalent to…
Conformal algebras, recently introduced by Kac, encode an axiomatic description of the singular part of the operator product expansion in conformal field theory. The objective of this paper is to develop the theory of ``multi-dimensional''…
Many physically important mechanical systems may be described with a Lie group $G$ as configuration space. According to the well-known Noether's theorem, underlying symmetries of the Lie group may be used to considerably reduce the…
We develop a theory of Lagrangian reduction on loop groups for completely integrable systems after having exchanged the role of the space and time variables in the multi-time interpretation of integrable hierarchies. We then insert the…
The aim of the paper is to study some dynamic aspects coming from a tangent form, i.e. a time dependent differential form on a tangent bundle. The action on curves of a tangent form is natural associated with that of a second order…
In his paper "A Construction for Coisotropic Subalgebras of Lie Bialgebras", Marco Zambon gave a way to use a long root of a complex semisimple Lie biaglebra $\mathfrak{g}$ to construct a coisotropic subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$. In this…
Two-spinor formalism for Einstein Lagrangian is developed. The gravitational field is regarded as a composite object derived from soldering forms. Our formalism is geometrically and globally well-defined and may be used in virtually any…
The $G$-strand equations for a map $\mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{R}$ into a Lie group $G$ are associated to a $G$-invariant Lagrangian. The Lie group manifold is also the configuration space for the Lagrangian. The $G$-strand itself is the map…
It is known that some equations of differential geometry are derived from variational principle in form of Euler-Lagrange equations. The equations of geodesic flow in Riemannian geometry is an example. Conversely, having Lagrangian…
We construct all (2+1)-dimensional PDEs depending only on 2nd-order derivatives of unknown which have the Euler-Lagrange form and determine the corresponding Lagrangians. We convert these equations and their Lagrangians to two-component…
Meta-conformal transformations are constructed as sets of time-space transformations which are not angle-preserving but contain time- and space translations, time-space dilatations with dynamical exponent ${z}=1$ and whose Lie algebras…

The notion of quantum algebras is merged with that of Lie systems in order to establish a new formalism called Poisson-Hopf algebra deformations of Lie systems. The procedure can be naturally applied to Lie systems endowed with a symplectic…

A notion of internal Lagrangian for a system of differential equations is introduced. A spectral sequence related to internal Lagrangians is obtained. A connection between internal Lagrangians and presymplectic structures is investigated.…
In this paper, we develop the fundamentals of Lie-Poisson theory for direct limits $G=\dirlim G_{n}$ of complex algebraic groups $G_{n}$ and their Lie algebras $\fg=\dirlim \fg_{n}$. We show that $\fg^{*}=\invlim\fg_{n}^{*}$ has the…
