Spherical symmetry for f(R)-gravity is discussed by searching for Noether symmetries. The method consists in selecting conserved quantities in form of currents that reduce dynamics of f(R)-models compatible with symmetries. In this way we…
The ordinary formalism for classical field theory is applied to dynamical group field theories. Focusing first on a local group field theory over one copy of SU(2) and, then, on more involved nonlocal theories (colored and non colored)…
The purpose of this paper is twofold. The first purpose is to review a systematic construction of Noether currents for supersymmetric theories, especially effective supersymmetric theories. The second purpose is to use these currents to…

Noether's first and second theorems both imply conserved currents that can be identified as an energy-momentum tensor (EMT). The first theorem identifies the EMT as the conserved current associated with global spacetime translations, while…
Quasi-Noether differential systems are more general than variational systems and are quite common in mathematical physics. They include practically all differential systems of interest, at least those that have conservation laws. In this…
The construction of fractional derivatives with the right properties for use in field theory is reputed to be a difficult task, essentially because of the absence of a unique definition and uniform properties. The conformable fractional…
Cubic couplings between a complex scalar field and a tower of symmetric tensor gauge fields of all ranks are investigated on any constant curvature spacetime of dimension d>2. Following Noether's method, the gauge fields interact with the…

We prove a fractional Noether's theorem for fractional Lagrangian systems invariant under a symmetry group both in the continuous and discrete cases. This provides an explicit conservation law (first integral) given by a closed formula…
We review the Lagrangian formulation of Noether symmetries (as well as "generalized Noether symmetries") in the framework of Calculus of Variations in Jet Bundles, with a special attention to so-called "Natural Theories" and "Gauge-Natural…
We provide an action for gauge theories discretized on simplicial meshes, inspired by finite element methods. The action is discretely gauge invariant and we give a proof of consistency. A discrete Noether's theorem that can be applied to…
We propose a unified framework for random locations exhibiting some probabilistic symmetries such as stationarity, self-similarity, etc. A theorem of Noether's type is proved, which gives rise to a conservation law describing the change of…
Noether's theorem identifies fundamental conserved quantities, called Noether charges, from a Hamiltonian. To-date Noether charges remain largely elusive within theories of gravity: We do not know how to directly measure them, and their…
The quantum effective action yields equations of motion and correlation functions including all quantum corrections. We discuss here how it encodes also Noether currents at the full quantum level. Interestingly, the construction can be…
In this work we prove a weak Noether type theorem for a class of variational problems which include broken extremals. We then use this result to prove discrete Noether type conservation laws for certain classes of finite element…

This paper presents a formulation of Noether's theorem for fractional classical fields. We extend the variational formulations for fractional discrete systems to fractional field systems. By applying the variational principle to a…
