The usual formulations of time-dependent mechanics start from a given splitting Y=R×MY=R\times M of the coordinate bundle YRY\to R. From physical viewpoint, this splitting means that a reference frame has been chosen. Obviously, such a splitting is broken under reference frame transformations and time-dependent canonical …
