Subspaces in Hamilton spaces

From MaRDI portal





The notion of a Hamilton space is due to the author [C. R. Acad. Sci., Paris, Ser. I 306, No.4, 195-198 (1988; Zbl 0635.53017)]. It means a pair \(H^ n=(M,H)\) in which \(H: T^*M\setminus 0\to R\) is a regular Hamiltonian, where \(T^*M\to M\) is the cotangent bundle of a smooth manifold M. In this paper he studies the geometry of a Hamilton subspace \(\tilde H^ m=(\tilde M,\tilde H)\) in \(H^ n\) determined by an immersion i: \(\tilde M\to M\) and a section \(\tilde{\i}: T^*\tilde M\to T^*M\) of the differential mapping \(i^*: T^*M\to T^*\tilde M\). A Darboux frame is associated to \(H^ m\) and using the method of moving frames the Gauss-Weingarten formulae as well as the Gauss-Codazzi equations are established. The theory is applied to the case when the ambient space is almost Riemann-Hamilton.
