- 1 Canonical transformations come from generating functions via variational principles
- 2 Principal of least action
- 3 Initial approach to understanding how principle of least action leads to Newton's equations
- 4 Euler-Lagrange equations: More general, calculus of variations approach to principle of critical action, leading to Euler-Lagrange equations (Lagrange's equations in mechanics context)
