The Inverse Problem of the Calculus of Variations, 1st ed. 2015 Local and Global Theory Atlantis Studies in Variational Geometry Series, Vol. 2
Coordonnateur : Zenkov Dmitry V.
Unified exposition of the inverse variational problem for ordinary and partial differential equations and for equations on manifolds
First systematic contribution to the global inverse problem of the calculus of variations based on modern differential geometry and algebraic topology
Selected applications of the inverse problem in geometry, optimal control theory and modern theoretical physics (higher-order mechanics and general relativity)
Prepares the reader for research in the local and global inverse problem using variational sequence theory and its consequences based on elementary sheaf theory
