We introduce a geometric setup for discrete variational problems in two independent variables based on the theory of bundles modelled on cell complexes, and characterize geometrically a first variation formula and a discrete Noether theorem for symmetries of the discrete Lagrangian. We explore the existence of discrete variational integrators, which will conserve the discrete Noether currents in the...
This paper sets the scene for discrete variational problems on an abstract cellular complex that serves as discrete model of Rp and for the discrete theory of partial differential operators that are common in the Calculus of Variations. A central result is the construction of a unique decomposition of certain partial difference operators into two components, one that is a vector bundle morphism and...
