The equation of motion for a free particle on Minkowski space is dicussed in Lagrangian, Hamiltonian, and Hamilton-Jacobi form, using a representation with an imaginary time coordinate. Unfortunately, the English translation of this Chinese paper is difficult to understand since it is not in agreement with standard English terminology.
