Divergences in formal variational calculus and boundary terms in Hamiltonian formalism
Abstract
Description
It is shown how to extend the formal variational calculus in order to incorporate integrals of divergences into it. Such a generalization permits to study nontrivial boundary problems in field theory on the base of canonical formalism.
