Help with Invariance of Euler-Lagrange equations under a gauge transformation?
Ok, so after many months I could finally come back to this and answer the problematic section properly.
Starting from the transformed Lagrangian:
$$L' = L + e(\partial_{t}\phi + \vec \nabla\phi \cdot …

Help with Invariance of Euler-Lagrange equations under a gauge transformation?
I'm presented with the following question:
From the Lagrangian for a relativistic particle in an electromagnetic field:
$$L=-\frac{m}{\gamma} - eV + e\vec A \cdot \vec v$$
show that the gauge …
