Graded Lagrangian formalism in terms of a Grassmann-graded variational bicomplex on graded manifolds is developed in a very general setting. This formalism provides the comprehensive description of reducible degenerate Lagrangian systems, characterized by hierarchies of non-trivial higher-order Noether identities and gauge symmetries. This is a general case of classical field theory and Lagrangian non-relativistic mechanics.

AbstractThe deformability condition for submanifolds of fixed degree immersed in a graded manifold can be expressed as a system of first order PDEs. In the particular but important case of ruled submanifolds, we introduce a natural choice of coordinates, which allows to deeply simplify the formal expression of the system, and to reduce it to a system of ODEs along a characteristic direction. We introduce a notion of higher dimensional holonomy map in analogy with the one-dimensional case [29], and we provide a characterization for singularities as well as a deformability criterion.

We study action-minimizing orbits in Tonelli Lagrangian systems on the 2-torus on fixed energy levels above Mañé's strict critical value. Our work generalizes the results of Morse, Hedlund and Bangert on minimal geodesics in Riemannian 2-tori. The techniques in the proofs involve classical variational ones, as well as the theories of Mather, Mañé and Fathi, which allow the step from reversible to non-reversible dynamics.
