A variational perspective on classical Higgs fields in gauge-natural theories

M. Palese, E. Winterroth

Department of Mathematics, University of Torino, Torino, Italy

Abstract: Higgs fields on gauge-natural prolongations of principal bundles are defined by invariant variational problems and related canonical conservation laws along the kernel of a gauge-natural Jacobi morphism.

Keywords: jet, gauge-natural bundle, conserved quantity, Cartan connection, Higgs field.
