The Hamiltonian structure of several plasma physics models has been a topic of constant interest since the discovery of the Hamiltonian structures for the ideal magnetohydrodynamics [1] and the Vlasov-Maxwell equations [2–5]. The numerical algorithms derived from the VlasovMaxwell Hamiltonian structure were explored in several recent papers [6–12]. The generic guiding-center VlasovMaxwell bracket was presented by Morrison [13], while the generic gyrokinetic Vlasov-Maxwell bracket was presented by Burby et al. [14–17]. The general Hamiltonian formulation for the reduced Vlasov-Maxwell equations was also derived by Lie-transform methods by Brizard et al. [18]. The guiding-center Vlasov-Maxwell equations suitable for Hamiltonian formulation were initially presented by Pfirsch and Morrison [19] and recently presented in simplified form (without guiding-center polarization) by Brizard and Tronci [20], while two gauge-free gyrokinetic Vlasov-Maxwell models suitable for Hamiltonian formulation were presented by Burby and Brizard [21] and Brizard [22, 23]. After having asymptotically eliminated the gyroangle ζ and constructed the gyroaction J ≡ (mc/q)μ as an adiabatic invariant (μ denotes the magnetic moment of a particle of mass m and charge q), a reduced Lagrangian Lg is expressed in general form as
