Suppose a symplectic Lie group action on a connected symplectic manifold has global component Hamiltonians and a common fixed point . Choose their constants linearly so . The difference has zero Hamiltonian vector field because fundamental fields and Hamiltonian fields have compatible Lie-bracket conventions; it is therefore constant. At , all fundamental fields vanish, so both terms in vanish. Thus everywhere and the Poisson brackets of the components reproduce the group Lie algebra. For a connected group this also yields coadjoint equivariance. A linear unitary action on a vector space has the origin as such a fixed point.
