Exterior Differential Systems and Euler-Lagrange Partial Differential Equations
Author: Robert Bryant
language: en
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
Release Date: 2003-07
In Exterior Differential Systems, the authors present the results of their ongoing development of a theory of the geometry of differential equations, focusing especially on Lagrangians and Poincaré-Cartan forms. They also cover certain aspects of the theory of exterior differential systems, which provides the language and techniques for the entire study. Because it plays a central role in uncovering geometric properties of differential equations, the method of equivalence is particularly emphasized. In addition, the authors discuss conformally invariant systems at length, including results on the classification and application of symmetries and conservation laws. The book also covers the Second Variation, Euler-Lagrange PDE systems, and higher-order conservation laws. This timely synthesis of partial differential equations and differential geometry will be of fundamental importance to both students and experienced researchers working in geometric analysis.

The geometrical study of differential equations has a long and distinguished history, dating back to the classical investigations of Sophus Lie, Gaston Darboux, and Elie Cartan. Currently, these ideas occupy a central position in several areas of pure and applied mathematics. In this book, the author gives an overview of a number of significant ideas and results developed over the past decade in the geometrical study of differential equations. Topics covered in the book include symmetries of differential equations and variational problems, the variational bi-complex and conservation laws, geom.
