If F and G are two functionals, than their product is a functional derivative defined
as, [ FG ] g ( x ) = G ( F g ( x ) ) + F ( G ( x ) ) , which is the Leibniz property. If F g is
a functional that is well behaved in the interval in the function space around g = 0 , than

As is always the case this simplification of the situation is not universally true.
Independent conditions on the boundary values or generalized coordinates must be imposed
where the fields energies are functions.

The Lagrangian that will result in these equations is Eq. (9.17) plus
an additional term ( A v ) , where is the charge density and v is the
velocity of the charge, so that the radiation and interaction Lagrangian is

Eq. (9.19) now defines the Lagrangian for a charged particle moving in
a electromagnetic field produced by the charge and current j . The
Lagrangian for the entire field, including the particles themselves, is

It should be noted that the interaction term is local with the current
density at the point multiplied by the vector potential. In the radiated field
Lagrangian the spatial derivatives of the potentials come about from E
and B , which describes the coupling between the fields at each point. This
coupling is the origin of the propagation of the free field.
9.1. FIELD ENERGY DENSITY
Using the Hamiltonian expressions given in 8, Eq. (9.26) serves as
the starting point for computing the Hamiltonian of the electromagnetic
field in the absence of charged particles and field sources, that is the
Hamiltonian of a freely propagating electromagnetic wave. The
contribution of the first and last terms in Eq. (9.26) is determined by
Eq. (8.44).
The remaining contribution will be from the terms in the field
quantities alone,
H = HdV ,
