Abstract
This paper contains a variational formulation of the theory of a perfect fluid composed of multidimensional objects in space-time of arbitrary dimension; a nonstandard variational principle is based on the discussion of the Noether identity related to covariance of the Lagrangian under the action of diffeomorphisms of space-time. The initial-value problem and the boundary conditions are considered.Keywords
