Title: Jet extension of a classical particle field: Principles of covariance and minimal coupling

Journal Article · · J. Math. Phys. (N.Y.); (United States)

Jet theory of a classical particle field is developed through a systematic transition from a local to a global formulation. Emphasis is laid on the role of gauge covariance and minimal coupling principles in producing a global geometrical framework which faithfully generalizes the one of gravitation theories.
