We recover all these, in principle, different cases using a unified framework based on skew-symmetric algebroids with a distinguished 1-cocycle. Several examples illustrate the theory.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-01-04T11:30:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "70H20", "70G45", "70F25" ], "keywords": [ "unified framework", "applications", "construct hamilton-jacobi equations", "time-dependent mechanical systems", "great variety" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/0951-7715/23/8/006", "journal": "Nonlinearity", "year": 2010, "month": "Aug", "volume": 23, "number": 8, "pages": 1887 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 30, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010Nonli..23.1887B" } } }
