Variational principles for conformal geodesics
Conformal geodesics are solutions to a system of third order of equations,
which makes a Lagrangian formulation problematic. We show how enlarging the
class of allowed variations leads to a variational formulation for this...
Variational principles for conformal geodesics
Abstract: Conformal geodesics are solutions to a system of third-order equations, which makes a Lagrangian formulation problematic. We show how enlarging the class of allowed variations leads to a variational formulation for...
