We show that a given set of first class constraints becomes abelian if one maps each constraint to the surface of other constraints. There is no assumption that first class constraints satisfy a closed algebra. The explicit form of the…
The systematic method for the conversion of first class constraints to the equivalent set of Abelian one based on the Dirac equivalence transformation is developed. The representation for the corresponding matrix performing this…
We show that after mapping each element of a set of second class constraints to the surface of the other ones, half of them form a subset of abelian first class constraints. The explicit form of the map is obtained considering the most…

The constraint equations for smooth $[n+1]$-dimensional (with $n\geq 3$) Riemannian or Lorentzian spaces satisfying the Einstein field equations are considered. It is shown, regardless of the signature of the primary space, that the…
We propose a general method for deformation quantization of any second-class constrained system on a symplectic manifold. The constraints determining an arbitrary constraint surface are in general defined only locally and can be components…
We show that for a system containing a set of general second class constraints which are linear in the phase space variables, the Abelian conversion can be obtained in a closed form and that the first class constraints generate a…
We study the necessary and sufficient conditions on Abelianizable first class constraints. The necessary condition is derived from topological considerations on the structure of gauge group. The sufficient condition is obtained by applying…
In this paper we reformulate Abelian and non-Abelian noninvariant systems as gauge invariant theories using a new constraint conversion scheme, developed on the symplectic framework. This conversion method is not plagued by the ambiguity…
Exactly solving first-order constraints (i.e., first-order formulas over a certain predefined structure) can be a very hard, or even undecidable problem. In continuous structures like the real numbers it is promising to compute approximate…
We apply the BFFT formalism to a prototypical second-class system, aiming to convert its constraints from second- to first-class. The proposed system admits a consistent initial set of second-class constraints and an open potential function…
Generators of the algebra of first class functions in a system with second class constraints are found. It is shown that first class functions form algebras with respect to the Dirac bracket and pointwise multiplication.The subspace of…
We implement the Hamiltonian treatment of a nonAbelian noncommutative gauge theory, considering with some detail the algebraic structure of the noncommutative symmetry group. The first class constraints and Hamiltonian are obtained and…
It is shown that an arbitrary singular Lagrangian theory (with first and second class constraints up to $N$-th stage in the Hamiltonian formulation) can be reformulated as a theory with at most third-stage constraints. The corresponding…
In a Hamiltonian system with first class constraints observables can be defined as elements of a quotient Poisson bracket algebra. In the gauge fixing method observables form a quotient Dirac bracket algebra. We show that these two algebras…
We introduce a class of first-order methods for smooth constrained optimization that are based on an analogy to non-smooth dynamical systems. Two distinctive features of our approach are that (i) projections or optimizations over the entire…
Some more general "inheritance conditions" have been found for a given set of symmetry generators $\{\mathbf{Z}_{\bar{l}}\}$ acting on some set of coupled ordinary differential equations, once the "first integration method" has been applied…
The causal structure of Einstein's evolution equations is considered. We show that in general they can be written as a first order system of balance laws for any choice of slicing or shift. We also show how certain terms in the evolution…
Symmetries occur naturally in CSP or SAT problems and are not very difficult to discover, but using them to prune the search space tends to be very challenging. Indeed, this usually requires finding specific elements in a group of…
We introduce "chain by chain" method for constructing the constraint structure of a system possessing both first and second class constraints. We show that the whole constraints can be classified into completely irreducible first or second…
