Extend Lagrange & Hamilton Formal for Point Mech & Covari ..

by Walter Greiner, Hermine Reichau, Jurgen Struckmeier

This book presents the extended Lagrange and Hamilton formalisms of point mechanics and field theory in the usual tensor language of standard textbooks on classical dynamics. The notion "extended" signifies that the physical time of point dynamics as well as the space-time in field theories are treated as dynamical variables. It thus elaborates on some important questions including: How do we convert the canonical formalisms of Lagrange and Hamilton...
