We consider variation of energy of the light-like particle in the pseudo-Riemann space-time, find Lagrangian, canonical momenta and forces. Equations of the critical curve are obtained by the nonzero energy integral variation in accordance…
We consider a simple action for a fractional spin particle and a path integral representation for the propagator is obtained in a gauge such that the constraint embodied in the Lagrangian is not an obstacle. We obtain a propagator for the…
In this short note we show that any action for $N$ interacting particles can be made invariant under gauged Galilean transformations. While resulting Lagrangian is generally very complicated its Hamiltonian has simple form with first class…

The Proca-Corben-Schwinger equations for a spin-1 particle with an anomalous magnetic moment are added by a term describing an electric dipole moment, then they are reduced to a Hamiltonian form, and finally they are brought to the…
We have recently presented an extension of the standard variational calculus to include the presence of deformed derivatives in the Lagrangian of a system of particles and in the Lagrangian density of field-theoretic models. Classical…

We propose a Lagrangian formulation for a varying $G$ Newtonian-like theory inspired by the Brans-Dicke gravity. Rather than imposing an {\it ad hoc} dependence for the gravitational coupling, as previously done in the literature, in our…

Finite element representations of Maxwell's equations pose unusual challenges inherent to the variational representation of the `curl-curl' equation for the fields. We present a variational formulation based on classical field theory.…
We consider a version of the Vlasov equation on the circle under a periodic potential $V(x,t)$ and a repulsing smooth interaction $W$. We suppose that the Lagrangian for the single particle has chaotic orbits; using Aubry-Mather theory and…

We propose a relativistic particle model without Grassmann variables which, being canonically quantized, leads to the Dirac equation. Both $\Gamma$\,-matrices and the relativistic spin tensor are produced through the canonical quantization…
I discuss the physical basis of classical mechanics, such as expressed commonly using the framework of Newton's Principia. Newton's formulation of the laws of motion is seen to have quite a few ambiguities and shortcomings. Therefore I…
We propose a generalized form of the Thomas-Bargmann-Michel-Telegdi equations. These are first-order in both electric and magnetic fields and retain the conventional conserved quantities and constraints. Within this novel phenomenological…
