- Description
- The calculation of Dirac brackets (DB) using a symplectic matrix approach but in a Hamiltonian framework is discussed, and the calculation of the DB for the supersymmetric extension of QED (super-QED) is shown. The relation between the zero-mode of the pre-symplectic matrix and the gauge transformations admitted by the model is verified. A general prescription to construct Lagrangeans linear in the velocities is also presented.
