Discussion Overview
The discussion revolves around recommendations for literature on Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems that incorporate Grassmann variables. Participants seek to identify comprehensive sources that cover this specialized topic.
Discussion Character
- Exploratory, Technical explanation
Main Points Raised
- One participant requests suggestions for articles and books on the topic of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems with Grassmann variables.
- Another participant recommends Henneaux's book on quantization of gauge systems, noting it as a significant source.
- A subsequent reply reiterates the suggestion of Henneaux's book, emphasizing its completeness.
- Another participant proposes Sundermayer's book as a valuable addition to Henneaux's work, highlighting its relevance to constrained dynamics and applications in various theories.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
There is a general agreement on the value of Henneaux's book as a primary source, but additional suggestions are made without consensus on a definitive list of resources.
Contextual Notes
Participants express varying degrees of familiarity with the literature, and the discussion does not resolve which sources are most authoritative or comprehensive.
