Extended phase space in general gauge theories

In a recent paper, it was shown that in diffeomorphism-invariant theories, the symplectic vector fields induced by spacetime diffeomorphisms are integrable if one introduces an extended phase space. In this paper we extend the notion of extended phase space to all gauge theories with arbitrary combi...
