Title
Reduced dynamics and Lagrangian submanifolds of symplectic manifolds
Author
Abstract
In this paper, we will see that the symplectic creed by Weinstein 'everything is a Lagrangian submanifold' also holds for Hamilton-Poincare and Lagrange-Poincare reduction. In fact, we show that solutions of the Hamilton-Poincare equations and of the Lagrange-Poincare equations are in one-to-one correspondence with distinguished curves in a Lagrangian submanifold of a symplectic manifold. For this purpose, we will combine the concept of a Tulczyjew triple with Marsden-Weinstein symplectic reduction.
