چکیده
We discuss an elementary derivation of variational symmetries and corresponding integrals motion for the Lagrangian systems depending on acceleration. Providing several examples, we make manuscript accessible to a wide range readers with interest in higher-order Lagrangians symmetries. The discussed technique is also applicable derivatives.

The Symmetries of Equivalent Lagrangian Systems and Constants of Motion
In this paper Mathematical structure of time-dependent Lagrangian systems and their symmetries are extended and the explicit relation between constants of motion and infinitesimal symmetries of time-dependent Lagrangian systems are considered. Starting point is time-independent Lagrangian systems ,then we extend mathematical concepts of these systems such as equivalent lagrangian systems to th...
متن کاملSymmetries of second order potential differential systems
We characterize the family of second order potential differential systems, with n degrees of freedom, via their symmetries. Firstly, we calculate explicitly the equivalence Lie algebra and the weak equivalence Lie algebra. It is shown that the equivalence Lie algebra has the dimension n + 4 + n(n− 1) 2 whereas the weak equivalence Lie algebra is infinitedimensional. The later contains strictly ...

متن کاملA Variational Method for Second Order Shape Derivatives
We consider shape functionals obtained as minima on Sobolev spaces of classical integrals having smooth and convex densities, under mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions. We propose a new approach for the computation of the second order shape derivative of such functionals, yielding a general existence and representation theorem. In particular, we consider the p-torsional rigidity functio...
متن کاملSecond Order Lagrangian Twist Systems: Simple Closed Characteristics
We consider a special class of Lagrangians that play a fundamental role in the theory of second order Lagrangian systems: Twist systems. This subclass of Lagrangian systems is deened via a convenient monotonicity property that such systems share. This monotonicity property (Twist property) allows a nite dimensional reduction of the variational principle for nding closed characteristics in xed e...
