For a field theory that is invariant under diffeomorphisms there is a subtle interplay between symmetries, conservation laws and the phase space of the theory. The natural language for describing these ideas is that of differential forms…
We prove that under certain assumptions a partial differential equation can be derived from a variational principle. It is well-known from Noether's theorem that symmetries of a variational functional lead to conservation laws of the…
In Lagrangian mechanics, Noether conservation laws including the energy one are obtained similarly to those in field theory. In Hamiltonian mechanics, Noether conservation laws are issued from the invariance of the Poincare-Cartan integral…

It's well known that Noether symmetries lead to the conservation laws. Conserved quantities are constructed out of generator of the symmetry - invariant Hamiltonian vector field. Considering more general class of vector fields -…
In this article, we will review Noether's Theorems and their application in General Relativity. We will present Noether's Theorems in their original form and restate them as they are usually applied to physics. Some basic equations of…
Making use of the Lagrange anchor construction introduced earlier to quantize non-Lagrangian field theories, we extend the Noether theorem beyond the class of variational dynamics.
We use the Lagrange-Noether methods to derive the conservation laws for models in which matter interacts nonminimally with the gravitational field. The nonminimal coupling function can depend arbitrarily on the gravitational field strength.…
I shall sketch the contents of Noether's 1918 article, "Invariante Variationsprobleme", in the context of the debate on the conservation of energy that had arisen from Einstein's general theory of relativity. How original was Noether's…
Noether's Theorem yields conservation laws for a Lagrangian with a variational symmetry group. The explicit formulae for the laws are well known and the symmetry group is known to act on the linear space generated by the conservation laws.…
Noether's celebrated theorem associating symmetry and conservation laws in classical field theory is adapted to allow for broken symmetry in geometric mechanics and is shown to play a central role in deriving and understanding the…
