Developed and expanded a formal variational calculus framework within the PhysLean repository, focusing on rigorous mathematical modeling for physics-informed optimization. Leveraging Lean and advanced concepts from calculus of variations, differential geometry, and formal verification, the work introduced abstractions for variational adjoints, gradients, and derivatives, along with supporting lemmas and proofs to ensure correctness and uniqueness. The framework was incrementally documented and refactored to include unified definitions for Euler-Lagrange and Hamilton’s equations, strengthening the mathematical foundation for variational analysis. These contributions enable robust optimization workflows and lay the groundwork for future applications in control and data-driven modeling within PhysLean.
