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 theorem is an elegant and powerful tool of classical mechanics, but it is of little to no consequence in discrete theories. Here we define and explore a discrete approach to covariant mechanics and show that within this framework…

The Noether symmetry analysis is applied in a multi-scalar field cosmological model in teleparallel gravity. In particular, we consider two scalar fields with interaction in scalar-torsion theory. The field equations have a minisuperspace…
In this communication, we show that both infinite-dimensional versions of Noether's theorems, and the explanation of quantum anomalies can be obtained using similar formulas for the derivatives of functions whose values are measures…
Noether's theorem is reviewed with a particular focus on an intermediate step between global and local gauge and coordinate transformations, namely linear transformations. We rederive the well known result that global symmetry leads to…
The properties of the canonical symmetry of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation are investigated. The densities of the local conservation laws for this system are shown to change under the action of the canonical symmetry by total space…
Any symmetry reduces a second-order differential equation to a first-order equation: variational symmetries of the action (exemplified by central field dynamics) lead to conservation laws, but symmetries of only the equations of motion…
Hermiticity is usually treated as a foundational axiom of quantum mechanics, guaranteeing real spectra and unitary time evolution. In this work we argue that Hermiticity is more naturally understood as a symmetry law arising from the global…
