In this paper, discrete analogues of Euler-Poincar\'{e} and Lie-Poisson reduction theory are developed for systems on finite dimensional Lie groups $G$ with Lagrangians $L:TG \to {\mathbb R}$ that are $G$-invariant. These discrete equations…

Employing a phase space which includes the (Riemann-Liouville) fractional derivative of curves evolving on real space, we develop a restricted variational principle for Lagrangian systems yielding the so-called restricted fractional…

There is a well developed and useful theory of Hamiltonian reduction for semidirect products, which applies to examples such as the heavy top, compressible fluids and MHD, which are governed by Lie-Poisson type equations. In this paper we…

A notion of implicit difference equation on a Lie groupoid is introduced and an algorithm for extracting the integrable part (backward or/and forward) is formulated. As an application, we prove that discrete Lagrangian dynamics on a Lie…

In this paper we will discuss some new developments in the design of numerical methods for optimal control problems of Lagrangian systems on Lie groups. We will construct these geometric integrators using discrete variational calculus on…

We develop the theory of discrete time Lagrangian mechanics on Lie groups, originated in the work of Veselov and Moser, and the theory of Lagrangian reduction in the discrete time setting. The results thus obtained are applied to the…

The purpose of this paper is to describe geometrically discrete Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Mechanics on Lie groupoids. From a variational principle we derive the discrete Euler-Lagrange equations and we introduce a symplectic 2-section,…

For a discrete mechanical system on a Lie group $G$ determined by a (reduced) Lagrangian $\ell$ we define a Poisson structure via the pull-back of the Lie-Poisson structure on the dual of the Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}^*$ by the…

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…

We study Euler-Poincare systems (i.e., the Lagrangian analogue of Lie-Poisson Hamiltonian systems) defined on semidirect product Lie algebras. We first give a derivation of the Euler-Poincare equations for a parameter dependent Lagrangian…

By one of the most fundamental principles in physics, a dynamical system will exhibit those motions which extremise an action functional. This leads to the formation of the Euler-Lagrange equations, which serve as a model of how the system…

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…

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…

The Lagrange problem is established in the discrete field theory subject to constraints with values in a Lie group. For the admissible sections that satisfy a certain regularity condition, we prove that the critical sections of such…

We study the Euler-Lagrange equations for a parameter dependent $G$-invariant Lagrangian on a homogeneous $G$-space. We consider the pullback of the parameter dependent Lagrangian to the Lie group $G$, emphasizing the special invariance…

This paper develops the theory of discrete Dirac reduction of discrete Lagrange-Dirac systems with an abelian symmetry group acting on the configuration space. We begin with the linear theory and, then, we extend it to the nonlinear setting…

In this paper we consider reduction of the stochastic Hamilton-Pontryagin principle formulated on the Pontryagin bundle of a manifold $Q$. We prove that a stochastic action invariant under the free and proper action of a Lie group $G$ drops…

In this paper, we will give a rigorous construction of the exact discrete Lagrangian formulation associated to a continuous Lagrangian problem. Moreover, we work in the setting of Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids which is enough general to…

In this work we introduce a category $LDP_d$ of discrete-time dynamical systems, that we call discrete Lagrange--D'Alembert--Poincar\'e systems, and study some of its elementary properties. Examples of objects of $LDP_d$ are nonholonomic…

We study in this paper the continuous and discrete Euler-Lagrange equations arising from a quadratic lagrangian. Those equations may be thought as numerical schemes and may be solved through a matrix based framework. When the lagrangian is…
