In this paper, the Faddeev-Jackiw approach is improved by the Wu elimination method, so a great many complicated computations in solving constraints for the finite-dimensional polynomial-type constrained dynamics can be executed easily by using computers. Moreover, based on the Faddeev-Jackiw approach, a new algorithm of solving the constrained dynamics is presented. The new algorithm is simpler and stricter than the Faddeev-Jackiw approach. Using the new algorithm, the second Cawley counterexample is solved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
