It is based on modern mathematical tools, specifically fibred spaces and their jet prolongations, which operate with vector fields and differential forms on foundational structures. The book systematically explains Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics and field theory, with a focused exploration of the underlying structures. Additionally, it addresses the well-known inverse problem of  calculus of variations and provides examples illustrating key variational physical theories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe text is complemented by solved examples from physics and includes exercises designed to help readers master the subject. Aimed at PhD students, postdocs, and interested researchers, this book assumes prior knowledge of mathematical analysis, linear and multilinear algebra, as well as elements of general and theoretical physics for effective engagement with the discussion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2025-02-27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783031774072\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-031-77408-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 331\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44481408270476,"sku":"9783031774072","price":76.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783031774072.jpg?v=1775673484","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783031774072","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
