We observe that a system of irreducible, fiber-linear, first-class constraints on $$T^*M$$T∗M is equivalent to the definition of a foliation Lie algebroid over M. The BFV formulation of the constrained system is given by the Hamiltonian lift of the Vaintrob description (E[1], Q) of the Lie algebroid to its cotangent bundle $$T^*E[1]$$T∗E[1]. Affine deformations of the constraints are parametrized by the first Lie algebroid cohomology $$H^1_Q$$HQ1 and lead to irreducible constraints also for… Expand
