The canonical symplectic form on a continuous-dual cotangent space #
For a real normed space V, the continuous-dual cotangent model V × StrongDual ℝ V carries
the canonical symplectic form
ω((v, α), (w, β)) = β(v) - α(w).
The form is obtained by restricting TauCeti.cotangentSymplecticForm along the coercion of the
continuous dual into the algebraic dual, which is why the two models agree by construction; only
nondegeneracy is new, and it comes from Hahn--Banach rather than from a basis. In finite
dimension the two models are moreover identified as symplectic vector spaces.
A continuous linear equivalence g : V ≃L[ℝ] W lifts to the symplectomorphism
(q, p) ↦ (g q, p ∘ g⁻¹) of the continuous-dual cotangent models, compatibly with identities,
composition and inverses.
