31 Algebroids as double vector bundle morphisms Remark: An algebroid (E, ε) is a Lie algebroid if and only if the corresponding tensor Λ ε is a Poisson tensor. It means in particular that ε r = (ε c ) (ρ = σ). Ghent, August, 2005 p.10/17

38 Lagrange formalism for general algebroid For general algebroid we have constructed two equations for curves γ : I E: (1) The equation E 1 L given by E 1 L = (TL eg) 1 (D). The curve γ is a solution of E 1 L if and only if L eg γ is a solution of D, i.e. T(L eg γ) D. E 1 L corresponds to the construction of de Léon and Lacomba: M. de León, E. Lacomba: Lagrangian submanifolds and higher-order mechanical systems, J.Phys. A: Math. Gen. vol. 22, 1989, ( ). Ghent, August, 2005 p.13/17

39 Lagrange formalism for general algebroid (2) The equation E 2 L given by E 2 L = {v TE : T L eg (v) T 2 E }, where T 2 E TTE is the subset of holonomic vectors w, i.e. w TTE such that τ TE (w) = Tτ E (w). The curve γ is a solution of E 2 L if the tangent prolongation T(L eg γ) is exactly L eg γ. Since L eg γ is in D by definition, we have E 2 L = E1 L. E 2 L is the equation given in works of A. Weinstein, E. Martinez,... Ghent, August, 2005 p.14/17

40 Lagrange formalism for general algebroid The coordinate expression for E 2 L is dx a dt = ρa k (x)yk, d dt ( ) L y j = c k L ij (x)yi y k (x, y)+σa j L (x) (x, y) xa Ghent, August, 2005 p.15/17

L (x) (x, y) xa L (x) (x, y). xa Ghent, August, 2005 p.15/17

42 Noether Theorem The vertical lift: K k (τ), v τ (K) (τ E ), in coordinates v τ (f i 1 ke i1 e ik ) = f i 1 k y i 1 y i k. The algebroid lift: ι(d ε T(K)) = d T (ι(k)) ε k. Ghent, August, 2005 p.16/17

43 Noether Theorem The vertical lift: K k (τ), v τ (K) (τ E ), in coordinates v τ (f i 1 ke i1 e ik ) = f i 1 k y i 1 y i k. The algebroid lift: ι(d ε T(K)) = d T (ι(k)) ε k. In local coordinates, for functions: d ε T(f(x)) = y i ρ a i (x) f x a (x) and for sections of τ: ) d ε T(f i (x)e i ) = f i (x)σ a i (x) x + (y i ai fk ρ (x) a x a (x) + ck ij (x)yi f j (x) y k. Ghent, August, 2005 p.16/17

44 Noether Theorem Theorem. If X is a section of E and f is a function on M, then d ε T(X)L = d ε T(f) (1) if and only if the function (ι(x) v π (f)) L eg on E is a first integral of the equation (E 2 L ). In particular, if (1) is satisfied, then (ι(x) v π (f)) L eg is a first integral of the equation (E 1 L ). Ghent, August, 2005 p.17/17

45 Noether Theorem Theorem. If X is a section of E and f is a function on M, then d ε T(X)L = d ε T(f) (1) if and only if the function (ι(x) v π (f)) L eg on E is a first integral of the equation (E 2 L ). In particular, if (1) is satisfied, then (ι(x) v π (f)) L eg is a first integral of the equation (E 1 L ). Remark. One can consider the Hamiltonian part of the Tulczyjew triple for an arbitrary algebroid and prove the standard correspondence between the Lagrangian and the Hamiltonian in the regular case. To this end, dealing with a Lie and not with an arbitrary algebroid played no role, contrary to the common opinion that geometrical mechanics is a Lie algebroid theory. No brackets have been really used! Ghent, August, 2005 p.17/17
