Covariant canonical formulations of classical field theories
read the original abstract
We review in simple terms the covariant approaches to the canonical formulation of classical relativistic field theories (in particular gauge field theories and general relativity) and we discuss the relationships between these approaches as well as the relation with the standard (non-covariant) Hamiltonian formulation. Particular attention is paid to conservation laws (notably related to geometric symmetries) within the different approaches. Moreover, for each of these approaches, the impact of space-time boundaries is also addressed. To make the text accessible to a wider audience, we have included an outline of Poisson and symplectic geometry for both classical mechanics and field theory.

Transformer attention and parameter optimization can be rewritten on symmetry-reduced relational variables (Gram matrices and invariant parameter composites), removing coordinate redundancies by construction.
