Abstract

Let μ: FX → X be a principal bundle of frames with the structure group Gl n (ℝ). It is shown that the variational problem, defined by Gl n (ℝ)-invariant Lagrangian on J r FX, can be equivalently studied on the associated space of connections with some compatibility condition, which gives us order reduction of the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equations.
