A variational perspective on classical Higgs fields in gauge-natural theories
arXiv:1110.5426 · doi:10.1007/s11232-011-0082-2
Abstract
Higgs fields on gauge-natural prolongations of principal bundles are defined by invariant variational problems and related canonical conservation laws along the kernel of a gauge-natural Jacobi morphism.
