Lie Groupoids in Classical Field Theory II: Gauge Theories, Minimal Coupling and Utiyama's Theorem

Bruno T. Costa, Michael Forger, Luiz Henrique P. Pêgas

In the two papers of this series, we initiate the development of a new approach to implementing the concept of symmetry in classical field theory, based on replacing Lie groups/alg…

Lie Groupoids in Classical Field Theory I: Noether's Theorem

Bruno T. Costa, Michael Forger, Luiz Henrique P. Pêgas

In the two papers of this series, we initiate the development of a new approach to implementing the concept of symmetry in classical field theory, based on replacing Lie groups/alg…

On Covariant Poisson Brackets in Classical Field Theory

Michael Forger, Mário O. Salles

How to give a natural geometric definition of a covariant Poisson bracket in classical field theory has for a long time been an open problem - as testified by the extensive literat…

Hamiltonian Vector Fields on Multiphase Spaces of Classical Field Theory

Michael Forger, Mário Otávio Salles

We present a classification of hamiltonian vector fields on multisymplectic and polysymplectic fiber bundles closely analogous to the one known for the corresponding dual jet bundl…

Local symmetries in gauge theories in a finite-dimensional setting

Michael Forger, Bruno L. Soares

It is shown that the correct mathematical implementation of symmetry in the geometric formulation of classical field theory leads naturally beyond the concept of Lie groups and the…

Covariant Poisson Brackets in Geometric Field Theory

Michael Forger, Sandro V. Romero

We establish a link between the multisymplectic and the covariant phase space approach to geometric field theory by showing how to derive the symplectic form on the latter, as intr…
