Abstract
► Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCSs) are cores of observed tracer patterns. ► LCS definition can be formulated mathematically as a variational principle. ► Variational LCS theory yields sufficient and necessary criteria for LCSs in flows. ► Theory of a constrained LCS yields unique weak unstable and center manifolds.
