The ordinary Poisson brackets in field theory do not fulfil the Jacobi identity if boundary values are not reasonably fixed by special boundary conditions. We show that these brackets can be modified by adding some surface terms to lift…
We construct a modification of the Poisson bracket which is suitable for a canonical analysis of space-time noncommutative field theories. We show that this bracket satisfies the Jacobi identities and generates equations of motion. In this…
We consider the algebra of spatial diffeomorphisms and gauge transformations in the canonical formalism of General Relativity in the Ashtekar and ADM variables. Modifying the Poisson bracket by including surface terms in accordance with our…
Preliminary results toward the analysis of the Hamiltonian structure of multifield theories describing complex materials are mustered: we involve the invariance under the action of a general Lie group of the balance of substructural…
In this note the long standing problem of the definition of a Poisson bracket in the framework of a multisymplectic formulation of classical field theory is solved. The new bracket operation can be applied to forms of arbitary degree.…
It has been a long standing question how to extend the canonical Poisson bracket formulation from classical mechanics to classical field theories, in a completely general, intrinsic, and canonical way. In this paper, we provide an answer to…
In this report it is proposed to generalize the definition of Poisson brackets in order to treat spatial integrals of divergences as Hamiltonians which generate a kind of Hamiltonian equations on the boundary. Nonlinear Schrodinger equation…
In field theory the Poisson bracket $\{F, \mathcal{H}\}$ between an arbitrary function $F$ and the system Hamiltonian $\mathcal{H}$ acquires odd contributions. Here a modification is worked out to remove those terms, which leads to a…
We discuss in this paper the canonical structure of classical field theory in finite dimensions within the {\it{pataplectic}} Hamiltonian formulation, where we put forward the role of Legendre correspondance. We define the generalized…
It is described how the standard Poisson bracket formulas should be modified in order to incorporate integrals of divergences into the Hamiltonian formalism and why this is necessary. Examples from Einstein gravity and Yang-Mills gauge…
A new Poisson bracket for Hamiltonian forms on the full multisymplectic phase space is defined. At least for forms of degree n-1, where n is the dimension of space-time, Jacobi's identity is fulfilled.
We consider the Hamiltonian treatment of non-local theories and Ostrogradski's formalism. This has recently also been discussed by Woodard (hep-th/0006207) and by Gomis, Kamimura and Llosa (hep-th/0006235). In our approach we recast the…
We discuss in this paper the canonical structure of classical field theory in finite dimensions within the {\it{pataplectic}} hamiltonian formulation, where we put forward the role of Legendre correspondance. We define the Poisson…
The covariant canonical formalism is a covariant extension of the traditional canonical formalism of fields. In contrast to the traditional canonical theory, it has a remarkable feature that canonical equations of gauge theories or gravity…
The general uncertainty principle applied to gravity can be implemented as a set of modified Poisson brackets in the canonical formalism. As such, the theory is not canonical and the resulting equations of motion do not lead to a covariant…
In this article, we use the language of $\mathbb{P}_0$-factorization algebras to articulate a classical bulk-boundary correspondence between 1) the observables of a Poisson Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) theory on a manifold $N$ and 2) the…
There exists the problem to construct a quantum algebra of observables in lightcone QCD beyond the perturbative regime. It has recently established that the boundary gauge fields are crucial for a consistent construction of the classical…
The dynamic of a classical system can be expressed by means of Poisson brackets. In this paper we generalize the relation between the usual non covariant Hamiltonian and the Poisson brackets to a covariant Hamiltonian and new brackets in…
A new approach for treating boundary Poisson structures based on causality and locality analysis is proposed for a single scalar field with boundary interaction. For the case of linear boundary condition, it is shown that the usual…
We present a general definition of the Poisson bracket between differential forms on the extended multiphase space appearing in the geometric formulation of first order classical field theories and, more generally, on exact multisymplectic…
