Abstract
A presymplectic formalism is set up for nonlocal Lagrangian systems. The method is based on an ‘equivalent’ first order Lagrangian that is processed by standard ways of classical mechanics. The Hamiltonian formalism for the latter is then pulled back onto the infinite dimensional phase space of the nonlocal system.
