abstract

We develop a new geometric framework suitable for dealing with Hamiltonian field theories with dissipation. To this end we define the notions of $k$-contact structure and $k$-contact Hamiltonian system. This is a generalization of both the contact Hamiltonian systems in mechanics and the $k$-symplectic Hamiltonian systems in field theory. The concepts of symmetries and dissipation laws are introduced and developed. Two relevant examples are analyzed in detail: the damped vibrating string and Burgers' equation.
