13. [10] It is possible, of course, to preserve the canonicity of the coordinates in spite of their transformation properties. To make one or another choice is a matter of taste at this classical level.

15. [12] The equations coincide with the ones previously obtained by L. BEL and J. MARTIN (8). 
16. [13] This choice is justified because this restriction is equivalent to the assymptotic condition on the symplectic form limλ→-∞ R(λ)dq ^ dp = dx ^ dp and guarantees the unicity of the Hamiltonian formulation based, in the scalar case, on this symplectic form (See for details the ref. cited below.) 
17. [14] This dimensional condition requires the presence of some new constant with dimensions of a length. This result is a direct consequence of (8.2): no such additional constant is required in the paper by L. Bel and J. Martin (Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré, t. 22, 1975, p. 173), which deals with structureless particles because their corresponding fourdimensional assymptotic condition is even weaker than (8.2).
