%0 Journal Article %T Some aspects of the homogeneous formalism in Field Theory and gauge invariance %A M. Palese %A E. Winterroth %J Mathematics %D 2006 %I arXiv %X We propose a suitable formulation of the Hamiltonian formalism for Field Theory in terms of Hamiltonian connections and multisymplectic forms where a composite fibered bundle, involving a line bundle, plays the role of an extended configuration bundle. This new approach can be interpreted as a suitable generalization to Field Theory of the homogeneous formalism for Hamiltonian Mechanics. As an example of application, we obtain the expression of a formal energy for a parametrized version of the Hilbert--Einstein Lagrangian and we show that this quantity is conserved. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/math-ph/0603062v2
