Abstract
We consider the Hamilton formulation as well as the Hamiltonian flows on a symplectic (phase) space. These symplectic spaces are derivable from the Lie group of symmetries of the physical system considered. In Part 2 of this work, we then obtain the Hamiltonian formalism in the Hilbert spaces of square integrable functions on the symplectic spaces so obtained.
