The Dirac bracket is a generalization of the Poisson bracket developed by Paul Dirac to correctly treat systems with second class constraints in Hamiltonian mechanics and canonical quantization. It is an important part of Dirac's development of Hamiltonian mechanics to handle more general Lagrangians. More abstractly the two form implied from the Dirac bracket is the restriction of the symplectic form to the constraint surface in phase space.

The Dirac bracket is a generalization of the Poisson bracket developed by Paul Dirac to correctly treat systems with second class constraints in Hamiltonian mechanics and canonical quantization. It is an important part of Dirac's development of Hamiltonian mechanics to handle more general Lagrangians. More abstractly the two form implied from the Dirac bracket is the restriction of the symplectic form to the constraint surface in phase space. This article assumes familiarity with the standard Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms, and their connection to canonical quantization. The details of Dirac's modified Hamiltonian formalism are summarized to put the Dirac bracket in context.
