Making use of the modern techniques of non-holonomic geometry and constrained variational calculus, a revisitation of Ostrogradsky’s Hamiltonian formulation of the evolution equations determined by a Lagrangian of order ≥ 2 in the derivatives of the configuration variables is presented.

Abstract
Making use of the modern techniques of non-holonomic geometry and constrained variational calculus, a revisitation of Ostrogradsky’s Hamiltonian formulation of the evolution equations determined by a Lagrangian of order ≥ 2 in the derivatives of the configuration variables is presented.
