Description

We obtain, for a subclass of structure functions characterizing a first class Hamiltonian system, recursive relations from which the general form of the local symmetry transformations can be constructed in terms of the independent gauge parameters. We apply this to a non-trivial Hamiltonian system involving two primary constraints, as well as two secondary constraints of the Nambu-Goto type.
