Special Functions of Mathematical Physics: A Unified Lagrangian Formalism
Lagrangian formalism is established for differential equations with special functions of mathematical physics as solutions. Formalism is based on either standard or non-standard Lagrangians.

Hyers-Ulam Stability of Euler’s Equation in the Calculus of Variations
In this paper we study Hyers-Ulam stability of Euler’s equation in the calculus of variations in two special cases: when F=F(x,y′) and when F=F(y,y′). For the first case we use the direct method and for the second case we use the Laplace transform.

En Route for the Calculus of Variations
Optimal control deals with the problem of finding a control law for a given system such that a certain optimality criterion is achieved. An optimal control is an extension of the calculus of variations.

Solution of Problems in Calculus of Variations Using Parameterization Technique [PDF]
In this paper a direct method using parameterization technique is applied for solving some problems in calculus of variations. The parameterization technique based on Laguerre and Hermite polynomials is introduced to reduce a variational problem to ...

The contingent epiderivative and the calculus of variations on time scales
The calculus of variations on time scales is considered. We propose a new approach to the subject that consists in applying a differentiation tool called the contingent epiderivative.

Value Functions for Bolza Problems with Discontinuous Lagrangians and Hamilton-Jacobi Inequalities [PDF]
We investigate the value function of the Bolza problem of the Calculus of Variations $$ V (t,x)=\inf \{\int_{0}^{t} L (y(s),y'(s))ds + \phi(y(t)) : y \in W^{1,1} (0,t; R^n) ; y(0)=x \}, $$ with a lower semicontinuous Lagrangian $L$ and a final cost ...
