Proca equations of a massive vector boson field in fractional form

Abstract EN

Fractional variational principles have gained considerable importance during the last decade due to their various applications in several areas of science and engineering.

In this study, the fractional Euler–Lagrange equations and Hamiltonian equations corresponding to a fractional Proca (massive vector boson) field are obtained.

These equations are obtained using the traditional method of calculus of variations adapted to the case of fractional space (Agrawal procedure).
