Nonlocal Lagrangian

In field theory, a nonlocal Lagrangian is a Lagrangian, a type of functional containing terms that are nonlocal in the fields , i.e. not polynomials or functions of the fields or their derivatives evaluated at a single point in the space of dynamical parameters (e.g. space-time). Examples of such nonlocal Lagrangians might be: * * * * The Wess–Zumino–Witten action. Actions obtained from nonlocal Lagrangians are called nonlocal actions. The actions appearing in the fundamental theories of physics, such as the Standard Model, are local actions; nonlocal actions play a part in theories that attempt to go beyond the Standard Model and also in some effective field theories. Nonlocalization of a local action is also an essential aspect of some regularization procedures. Noncommutative quantum field theory also gives rise to nonlocal actions. * v * t * e * v * t * e (Wikipedia).

There is a wholly alternative method for considering the time evolution of a system, not invoking causality or determinism, i.e. cause and effect or force and acceleration. Without using the laws of Newton we can use the principle of extremum (minimum) action to derive equations of motion
