Potential functions for separation and isochronic gauges

In summary, the choice of potential functions in physics, often expressed as a radius or other geometric norm/gauge, is important in determining the topology of a system. This decision is based on arbitrary mathematical functions input into lagrangians/hamiltonians to output the physics action. The accuracy of the calculated physics is dependent on the chosen normed topology, as an arbitrary choice may result in inaccurate calculations of torsion, curvature, or path integrals. As a theoretical physicist, confidence in choosing functions to compute under laplacians or other transforms is crucial in accurately representing the physical system.

Most potentials in physics are expressed as a radius or another geometric norm/gauge.

I am looking to understand the significance of the choice of potential functions for force/pressure separation in harmonic analysis before this creates a topology.

To my understanding this is the decision of arbitrary mathematical functions, that are input into lagrangians/hamiltonians to output the physics action.

To me this is important because if the normed topology is determined arbitrarily then the torsion, curvature or path integral is arbitrary and the physics you are calculating is not accurate.

In a nutshell, as a theoretical physics, how do you have confidence in choosing functions to be computed under laplacians or other transforms?
