      Covariant phase space and multisymplectic geometry 1h
      Speaker: Francois Gieres
    • 11:30 AM 12:30 PM
      A non-flat multisymplectic 3-form on the 6-sphere 1h

      Firstly, we look the 2-plectic form on the six-sphere which is strongly linked to the exceptionnal Lie group G_2 and show that there exists no Darboux theorem
      for this structure. In a second part, we will be interested in the dynamics associated with this structure.
