In mathematics, the tautological one-form is a special 1-form defined on the cotangent bundle T ∗ Q of a manifold Q. In physics, it is used to create a correspondence between the velocity of a point in a mechanical system and its momentum, thus providing a bridge between Lagrangian mechanics and Hamiltonian mechanics. The exterior derivative of this form defines a symplectic form giving T ∗ Q the structure of a symplectic manifold. The tautological one-form plays an important role in relating th
