Abstract

The discrete Hamiltonian formulation of Lagrangian linear in velocities is investigated andthe equivalence of Hamilton and Euler-Lagrange equations is obtained. The role of Lagrange multipliers is discussed within discrete Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations for some systems with constraints. Three illustrative examples are investigated in details.
