Verbovetsky A. On Hamiltonian geometry of PDEs, talk at Conf. The Interface of Integrability and Quantization, Lorentz Center, Leiden (The Netherlands), 2010 (abstract)
Speaker: Alexander Verbovetsky
Title: On Hamiltonian geometry of PDEs
by Paul Kersten, Joseph Krasil'shchik, Alexander Verbovetsky, and Raffaele Vitolo
Abstract:
The talk will survey geometrical ideas underlying the Hamiltonian approach to integrable systems. Tangent and cotangent coverings over the infinite jet spaces and differential equations, variational forms, multivectors, de Rham differential, Schouten bracket, etc. will be discussed after a short introduction to the geometry of differential equations.
