Relativistic mechanics in a general setting

arXiv:1005.1212 · doi:10.1142/S0219887810004804

Abstract

Relativistic mechanics on an arbitrary manifold is formulated in the terms of jets of its one-dimensional submanifolds. A generic relativistic Lagrangian is constructed. Relativistic mechanics on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold is particularly considered.
