Scientific paper
The foundations of gyrokinetic theory are reviewed with an emphasis on the
applications of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian methods used in the derivation of
nonlinear gyrokinetic Vlasov-Maxwell equations. These reduced dynamical
equations describe the turbulent evolution of low-frequency electromagnetic
fluctuations in nonuniform magnetized plasmas with arbitrary magnetic geometry.
