We have discovered two unconstrained forms of free Lagrangian for continuous spin(CS) theory in arbitrary flat spacetime dimension for bosonic case. These Lagrangians, unlike that by Schuster and Toro, do not include delta functions and are…
We systematically construct derivative self-interactions for massless and massive 2-forms. There exists a no-go theorem in the literature for constructing Galileon-like Lagrangians in four dimensions for the 2-form with gauge invariance,…

We present a class of optimum ground states for spin-3/2 models on the Cayley tree with coordination number 3. The interaction is restricted to nearest neighbours and contains 5 continuous parameters. For all values of these parameters the…

It has been shown recently that optimal control problems with the dynamical constraint given by a second order system admit a regular Lagrangian formulation. This implies that the optimality conditions can be obtained in a new form based on…

We consider (3+1)-dimensional second-order evolutionary PDEs where the unknown $u$ enters only in the form of the 2nd-order partial derivatives. For such equations which possess a Lagrangian, we show that all of them have a symplectic…

Lagrangian perturbation theory for cosmological fluid describes structure formation in the quasi-nonlinear stage well. In a previous paper, we presented a third-order perturbative equation for Lagrangian perturbation with pressure. There we…
In this paper we study, from a variational and geometrical point of view, second-order variational problems on Lie groupoids and the construction of variational integrators for optimal control problems. First, we develop variational…
A role of the exterior differential forms in field theory is connected with a fact that they reflect properties of the conservation laws. In field theory a role of the closed exterior forms is well known. A condition of closure of the form…
Many physical phenomena, governed by partial differential equations (PDEs), are second order in nature. This makes sense to pose the control on the second order derivatives of the field solution, in addition to zero and first order ones, to…
We formulate a general gauge invariant Lagrangian construction describing the dynamics of massive higher spin fermionic fields in arbitrary dimensions. Treating the conditions determining the irreducible representations of Poincare group…
Li\'enard-type equations are used for the description of various phenomena in physics and other fields of science. Here we find a new family of the Li\'enard-type equations which admits a non-standard autonomous Lagrangian. As a by-product…
The problems that are connected with Lagrangians which depend on higher order derivatives (namely additional degrees of freedom, unbound energy from below, etc.) are absent if effective Lagrangians are considered because the equations of…
We rewrite the Lagrangian of the fermionic sector of the Standard Model in a novel compact form. The new Lagrangian is second order in derivatives, and is obtained from the usual first order Lagrangian by integrating out all primed (or…
We determine the most general scalar field theories which have an action that depends on derivatives of order two or less, and have equations of motion that stay second order and lower on flat space-time. We show that those theories can all…
