VARIATIONAL PRINCIPLES FOR FIELD VARIABLES SUBJECT TO GROUP ACTIONS (GAUGE).
This dissertation is concerned with variational problems whose field variables are functions on a product manifold M x G of two manifolds M and G. These field variables transform as type (0,1) tensor fields on M and are denoted by ψ(h)ᵅ (h = 1, ..., n = dim M, α = 1, ..., r = dim G). The dependence...
