Overview

This book is devoted to review two of the most relevant approaches to the study of classical field theories of the first order, say k-symplectic and k-cosymplectic geometry. This approach is also compared with others like multisymplectic formalism.It will be very useful for researchers working in classical field theories and graduate students interested in developing a scientific career in the subject.
