in a {\it{unified}} and unambiguous way. The Lagrangian of a SQC reveals the constraints, that are classified in a Hamiltonian framework, such that redundant variables can be removed to isolate the canonical degrees of freedom for subsequent quantization of the Dirac Brackets via a generalized Correspondence Principle. This purely algebraic approach makes the application of concepts such as graph theory, null vector, loop charge,\ etc that are in vogue, (each for a specific type of circuit), completely redundant.
Superconducting Quantum Circuits in the light of Dirac’s Constraint Analysis Framework
In this work we introduce a new framework – Dirac’s Hamiltonian formalism of constraint systems – to study different types of Superconducting Quantum Circuits (SQC)
