TLDR
The equations of dynamics were put into a general form by Lagrange, who expressed them in terms of a set of generalized coordinates and velocities as discussed by the authors, and an alternative general form was later given by Hamilton, in the form of coordinates and momenta.
Abstract
1. Introduction. The equations of dynamics were put into a general form by Lagrange, who expressed them in terms of a set of generalized coordinates and velocities. An alternative general form was later given by Hamilton, in terms of coordinates and momenta. Let us consider the relative merits of the two forms.

Canonical formalism for gauge theories with application to monopole

TL;DR: In this article, a canonical formalism for Yang-Mills theories with magnetic monopole solutions was developed, using Dirac brackets, which may be applied to classical YangMills theory with 't Hooft-Polyakov type magnetic monopoles.

Hamilton-Jacobi analysis of the four-dimensional BF model with cosmological term

TL;DR: In this article, the Hamilton-Jacobi constraint analysis of the four-dimensional background field with cosmological term was performed. And the complete set of involutive Hamiltonians that guarantee the integrability of the system and identify the reduced phase-space was obtained.

Forms of Relativistic Dynamics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors combine the restricted principle of relativity with the hamiltonian formulation of dynamics, which leads to the appearance of ten fundamental quantities for each dynamical system, namely the total energy, the total momentum and the 6-vector which has three components equal to the total angular momentum.

Homogeneous variables in classical dynamics

TL;DR: The well-known methods of classical mechanics, based on the use of a Lagrangian or Hamiltonian function, are adequate for the treatment of nearly all dynamical systems met with in practice.
