A longstanding issue is the classical equivalence between the Jordan and the Einstein frames, which is considered just a field redefinition of the metric tensor and the scalar field. In this work, based on the previous result that the Hamiltonian transformations from the Jordan to the Einstein frame are not canonical on the extended phase space, we study the possibility of the existence of canonical transformations. We show that on the reduced phase space -- defined by suitable gauge fixing of the lapse and shifts functions -- these transformations are Hamiltonian canonical. Poisson brackets are replaced by Dirac's brackets following the Bergman-Dirac's procedure. The Hamiltonian canonical transformations map solutions of the equations of motion in the Jordan frame into solutions of the equations of motion in the Einstein frame.

    hep-ph 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    XENONnT electron-recoil data bound solar chameleons to log10 β_eff < −6.9, independent of the potential index n for inverse power-law chameleons at the dark-energy scale.

    astro-ph.CO 2025-04 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    In a Starobinsky f(R) inflation model, magnetic fields that are scale-invariant in the Einstein frame become blue or red in the Jordan frame, and both frames can agree only if the coupling is constant and no magnetic ...

    gr-qc 2025-05 conditional novelty 2.0 of 10

    The Jordan and Einstein frames are connected by a Hamiltonian canonical transformation only after gauge-fixing lapse and shift, and this maps the FJNW naked singularity to the BBMB black hole.
