Variational principles with symmetries are studied from the point of view of symplectic reduction of the space of loops, leading to a characterization of reduced periodic orbits by means of the critical subsets of an action functional restricted to a submanifold of the loop space of the unreduced manifold. Finally, as an application, it is shown that if the symplectic form ! has finite integral rank, then the periodic orbits of a Hamiltonian system on the symplectic manifold .M; !/ admit a variational characterization. eng restricted access Periodic orbits of Hamiltonian systems and symplectic reduction journal article
