A simple proof of Noether's first theorem involves the promotion of a constant symmetry parameter $\epsilon$ to an arbitrary function of time, the Noether charge $Q$ is then the coefficient of $\dot\epsilon$ in the variation of the action.…
In any diffeomorphism invariant theory of gravity, one can define a Noether charge arising from the invariance of the Lagrangian under diffeomorphisms. We have determined the Noether charge for scalar-tensor theories of gravity, in which…
