The discussion of the variational (bi)complex is set up in terms of a flat connection in the jet bundle. We extend it to supercase using a particular new class of forms. We establish relation of the complex of variational derivatives and the variational complex. Certain calculus of Lagrangians of multidimensional paths is developed. It is shown how covariant Lagrangians of higher order can be used to represent characteristic classes. Comments: LaTeX2e, 36 pages Subjects: Differential Geometry (math.DG)

Many current questions in applied analysis are motivated by issues in the physical sciences or engineering. They require state-of-the-art techniques, new ideas, and the introduction of innovative tools in the calculus of variations, differential equations, and geometric measure theory. This talk will focus on the variational approach as it is used to treat problems on foams, imaging, micromagnetics, and thin structures.

Calculus of variations From LoveToKnow 1911 CALCULUS OF VARIATIONS, in mathematics . The calculus of variations arose from the attempts that were made by Origin mathematicians in the 17th century to solve problems of the of which the following are typical examples. (i) It Calculus. is required to determine the form of a chain of given length, hanging from two fixed points, by the condition that its centre of gravity must be as low as possible. This problem of the catenary was attempted without success by Galileo Galilei (1638). (ii) The resistance of a medium to the motion of a body being assumed to be a normal pressure, proportional to the square of the cosine of the angle between the normal to the surface and the direction of motion, it is required to determine the meridian curve of a surface of revolution, about an axis in the direction of motion, so that the resistance shall be the least possible. This problem of the solid of least resistance was solved by Sir Isaac Newton (1687). (iii) It is required to find a curve joining two fixed points, so that the time of descent along this curve from the higher point to the lower may be less than the time along any other curve. This problem of the brachistochrone was proposed by John (Johann) Bernoulli The contributions of the Greek geometry to the subject consist of a few theorems discovered by one Zenodorus, of whom little

SimCode: Code generation of C-code S-functions Document Actions Calculus Of Variations The calculus of variations (also called variational calculus) is roughly speaking a mathematical methodology that determines necessary conditions for certain functions in order to extremize a given functional. The derived conditions are formulated in terms of partial differential equations and boundary conditions. Several physical problems are equipped with a variational principle (as e.g. the Hamiltonian principle) and thus their equations of motion can be determined by means of calculus of variations. Here we introduce a Maple package, that derives these conditions on the bases of jet manifolds. The applied theory is not limited with respect to system dimensions or system order.

Read This! The MAA Online book review column Introduction to the Calculus of Variations by Bernard Dacorogna Reviewed by Michael Berg There's something almost magical about the phrase, "The Calculus of Variations," conjuring up tales of titans ranging from Isaac Newton to David Hilbert. Everyone surely recalls the story of the least-time path in a gravitational field, the brachistochrone, posed by Johann Bernoulli and solved by Isaac Newton. Almost all of us were likely exposed to it first from Eric Temple Bell's universally beloved Men of Mathematics : "In 1696 Johann Bernoulli and Leibniz between them concocted two devilish challenges to the mathematicians of Europe. The first is still of importance; the second is not in the same class... [The first problem] is the problem of the brachistochrone ... After the problem had baffled the mathematicians of Europe for six months, it was proposed again, and Newton heard of it for the first time on January 29, 1696 [1697?], when a friend communicated it to him. He had just come home, tired out, from a long day at the Mint. After dinner he solved the problem (and the second as well), and the following day communicated his solutions to the Royal Society anonymously. But for all his caution he could not conceal his identity ... On seeing the solution Bernoulli at once exclaimed, 'Ah! I recognize the lion by his paw.'" [loc. cit., p. 115] Taking into account the late Dr. Bell's well-known love of a good tale, touching even upon occasional embellishment, we should note that, in fact, the brachistochrone problem actually goes back to Galileo, in 1638, and was in fact solved by both Johann and Jacob Bernoulli, as well as by Leibniz, in addition to the English Lion himself. This we learn from Dacorogna on page 1 of his
