where $(Q,P)$ are given by
\begin{align}
&Q = \phi(q),\\
&\phi^* P = p, \qquad (\phi^* P)_i = \frac{\partial \phi^j(q)}{\partial q^i} P_j.
&\phi^* P = p, \qquad (\phi^* P)_i = \frac{\partial \phi^j(q)}{\partial q^i} p_j.
\end{align}
Here we are abusing slightly the notation, it is more conventional to write $p = (\d\phi_{q})^* P$.
For a more detailed account, you can have a look at \cite[Chapter 6.3 and in particular formula (6.3.4)]{book:marsdenratiu} or \cite[Proposition 6.2.8]{lectures:aom:seri}.

Let $X(q), Y(q)$ denote two vector fields on $M$ and define two hamiltonians linear in the momenta as in \eqref{eq:linhamp}:

H_X = (p, X(q)),\quad H_Y = (p, Y(q)).
