Description

This lecture covers the Hamilton's formalism, focusing on the equations derived from Lagrange's formalism and the Legendre transformation. It explains the principle of least action, generalized impulses, and the canonical equations. The lecture also delves into the compact notation for Poisson brackets and the Jacobi identity, essential in classical and quantum mechanics.
