Consider the following problem of Lagrange in the calculus of variations: relative to differentiable curves xi(t) satisfying xi(t0) = xi0 and xi(t1) = xi1 find a curve minimizing1

AbstractLet ${\cal E}$ be a topos, ${\rm{Dec}}\left( {\cal E} \right) \to {\cal E}$ be the full subcategory of decidable objects, and ${{\cal E}_{\neg \,\,\neg }} \to {\cal E}$ be the full subcategory of double-negation sheaves. We give sufficient conditions for the existence of a Unity and Identity ${\cal E} \to {\cal S}$ for the two subcategories of ${\cal E}$ above, making them Adjointly Opposite. Typical examples of such ${\cal E}$ include many ‘gros’ toposes in Algebraic Geometry, simplicial sets and other toposes of ‘combinatorial’ spaces in Algebraic Topology, and certain models of Synthetic Differential Geometry.

It is well known [1] that the variational problem of minimizing1where F is positive homogeneous of degree one in (henceforth abbreviated to "plus-one" in ) leads to a Hamiltonian H{xi, pi} and corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi equation2

In a previous paper in these Proceedings the problem of the double integralwas discussed when the function F had the formwhereIt is proposed in the present paper to extend the method to the general problem, where F may have any form provided only that it satisfies the necessary condition of being homogeneous of the first degree in A, B, C.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>We prove a Noether's theorem of the first kind for the so-called <i>restricted fractional Euler-Lagrange equations</i> and their discrete counterpart, introduced in [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b26">26</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b27">27</xref>], based in previous results [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b11">11</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b35">35</xref>]. Prior, we compare the restricted fractional calculus of variations to the <i>asymmetric fractional calculus of variations</i>, introduced in [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b14">14</xref>], and formulate the restricted calculus of variations using the <i>discrete embedding</i> approach [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b12">12</xref>,<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b18">18</xref>]. The two theories are designed to provide a variational formulation of dissipative systems, and are based on modeling irreversbility by means of fractional derivatives. We explicit the role of time-reversed solutions and causality in the restricted fractional calculus of variations and we propose an alternative formulation. Finally, we implement our results for a particular example and provide simulations, actually showing the constant behaviour in time of the discrete conserved quantities outcoming the Noether's theorems.</p>

Fractional calculus of variations (FCV) has recently attracted considerable attention as it is deeply related to the fractional quantization procedure. In this work, the FCV from extended Erdélyi-Kober fractional integral is constructed. Our main goal is to exhibit a general treatment for dissipative systems, in particular the harmonic oscillator (HO) that has time-dependent mass and time-dependent frequency. The general linear equation of damped Erdélyi-Kober harmonic oscillator is constructed from which a time-dependent mass generalized law was derived exhibiting different types of behavior. This relatively new time-dependent mass law permits us to point out several possible cases simultaneously in contrast to many models discussed in the literature and without making use of any types of fractional derivatives. Some results on Hamiltonian part, namely Hamilton equations for the damped HO were obtained and discussed in detail.
