Keyboard graph navigation: press N for concepts or E for relations; use arrow keys, Home, and End to move; Enter selects; Shift plus Enter selects and centers; plus and minus zoom; zero fits; Escape clears the selection. Use the visible viewport buttons as alternatives to dragging, wheel, and pinch gestures.
Select a concept
Select any concept, construction junction, or annotated relation by pointer, touch, search, or keyboard.
Construction junctions are diamonds. They show where multiple structures must coexist on the same carrier and satisfy compatibility conditions.
Move selected concept
Single-pointer and keyboard alternatives to dragging. Each activation moves the selected concept one step.
This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

retain closed nondegenerate 2-form
Authored explanation
The fundamental form of a Kähler manifold is symplectic.
How to interpret this relation type
Pass canonically from a stronger object to structure it determines, or forget part of the data while retaining a valid weaker structure. The carrier may change under a canonical induced construction.

add closed nondegenerate 2-form
Authored explanation
Add a differential 2-form that is closed and nondegenerate.
How to interpret this relation type
Equip an existing carrier or structured object with additional chosen data, when such compatible data exists. Use a construction junction when several independently meaningful inputs must coexist on the same carrier or interact compatibly.
Supplying a smooth function H on a symplectic manifold determines the Hamiltonian vector field by ιXHω=dH up to the declared sign convention, and hence a local Hamiltonian evolution; global evolution additionally requires completeness.

Authored annotation
phase-space geometry
Authored explanation
Hamiltonian mechanics is naturally formulated on symplectic manifolds, whose symplectic form defines Hamiltonian vector fields and Poisson brackets.
How to interpret this relation type
A mathematical concept supplies part of the formal language, state space, representation, or analytic machinery used by a scientific or mathematical-physics concept. The source is the mathematical predecessor; this does not claim that physical content follows from mathematics alone.

Hamiltonian phase spaces are symplectic manifolds or appropriate generalizations.
