We consider the problem of a conditional extremum of an action in a class of fields constrained by differential equations. For this setup, we propose an extension of Noether's first theorem to connect the symmetries of the action and the…

Because scaling symmetries of the Euler-Lagrange equations are generally not variational symmetries of the action, they do not lead to conservation laws. Instead, an extension of Noether's theorem reduces the equations of motion to…
