Beskrivning

The book provides a detailed exposition of the calculus of variations on fibre bundles and graded manifolds. It presents applications in such area's as non-relativistic mechanics, gauge theory, gravitation theory and topological field theory with emphasis on energy and energy-momentum conservation laws. Within this general context the first and second Noether theorems are treated in the very general setting of reducible degenerate graded Lagrangian theory.

Recensioner i media

"This book contains a systematic and detailed approach to Lagrangian systems through the variational bicomplex providing a very general geometric and algebraic view of the variational calculus. ... The book is very well written in a clear and direct style containing very helpful cross references. In addition the book under review includes 4 appendices which make the presentation self contained." (Miguel Paternain, zbMATH 1357.58002, 2017)
