Four-divergence and Legendre transformation
As a study case, consider the following Lagrangian for a left-handed Weyl field $\chi \in \mathbb{C}^{2}$:
$$\mathcal{L} = \chi^{\dagger} \mathrm{i} \overline{\sigma}^{\rho} \partial_{\rho} \chi$$

Dirac bracket for the Majorana Lagrangian
Note: See update below.
Consider the Majorana Lagrangian
$$\mathcal{L}=-\psi ^{\mathrm{T}}\mathrm{i}%
\gamma ^{0}\left( \gamma ^{\rho }\partial _{\rho }+m\right) \psi ,\tag{1}$$
where $%
