Symmetries of Conservation Laws
We apply techniques of symmetry group analysis in solving two systems of conservation laws: a model of two strictly hyperbolic conservation laws and a zero pressure gas dynamics model, which both have no global solution, but whose solution consists of singular shock waves. We show that these shock waves are solutions in the sense of 1-strong association. Also, we compute all projectable symmetr...
متن کاملFundamental Symmetries and Conservation Laws
I discuss recent progress in low-energy tests of symmetries and conservation laws, including parity nonconservation in atoms and nuclei, electric dipole moment tests of time-reversal invariance, β-decay correlation studies, and decays violating separate (family) and total lepton number.
متن کاملConnections Between Symmetries and Conservation Laws
This paper presents recent work on connections between symmetries and conservation laws. After reviewing Noether’s theorem and its limitations, we present the Direct Construction Method to show how to find directly the conservation laws for any given system of differential equations. This method yields the multipliers for conservation laws as well as an integral formula for corresponding conser...
متن کاملApproximate spacetime symmetries and conservation laws
A notion of geometric symmetry is introduced that generalizes the classical concepts of Killing fields and other affine collineations. There is a sense in which flows under these new vector fields minimize deformations of the connection near a specified observer. Any exact affine collineations that may exist are special cases. The remaining vector fields can all be interpreted as analogs of Poi...

By a conservation law we mean a quantity constructed from the coordinates, velocities, accelerations, etc. of the system that does not change as the system evolves in time. When the equations of motion are second order, conservation laws typically arise as functions on the velocity phase (possibly with explicit time dependence). Conservation of energy, momentum and angular momentum are familiar...
