X-A-ST@1#eq:switchedaction, X-A-ST@1#eq:Euler
For the scalar dynamics define instead
Thus
The action is understood variationally; its numerical value on arbitrary smooth fields need not be finite. Compactly supported variations and the finite changes used below are well defined.
The sign convention is
