Variational sequences are complexes of modules or sheaf sequences in which one of the maps is the Euler Lagrange operator, i.e., the differential operator taking a Lagrangian into its Euler Lagrange form. In this review paper we discuss variational sequences on finite order jets, with special emphasis on Krupka's approach. We also discuss recent results on this topic as well as possible research directions.

Abstract
Variational sequences are complexes of modules or sheaf sequences in which one of the maps is the Euler Lagrange operator, i.e., the differential operator taking a Lagrangian into its Euler Lagrange form. In this review paper we discuss variational sequences on finite order jets, with special emphasis on Krupka's approach. We also discuss recent results on this topic as well as possible research directions.File in questo prodotto:
