Cosymplectic reduction of constrained systems with symmetry
F. Cantrijn, J. Cortés
Reports on Mathematical Physics 49 (2/3) (2002), 167-182
Abstract
A general model for time-dependent constrained systems is proposed
within the framework of cosymplectic geometry. The model covers, in
particular, the case of time-dependent nonholonomic mechanical
systems. The theory of reduction of these systems in the presence of
symmetry is discussed.
