We introduce the differential, integral, and variational delta-embeddings. We prove that the integral delta-embedding of the Euler-Lagrange equations and the variational delta-embedding coincide on an arbitrary time scale. In particular, a…
Discretizing variational principles, as opposed to discretizing differential equations, leads to discrete-time analogues of mechanics, and, systematically, to geometric numerical integrators. The phase space of such variational…
