The energy-momentum conservation laws for general reduced-fluid (e.g., gyrofluid) models are derived by Noether method from a general reduced variational principle. The reduced canonical energy-momentum tensor (which is explicitly…

We propose a geometrical treatment of symmetries in non-local field theories, where the non-locality is due to a lack of identification of field arguments in the action. We show that the existence of a symmetry of the action leads to a…
