چکیده

We introduce a method to construct conservation laws for a large class of linear partial differential equations. In contrast to the classical result of Noether, the conserved currents are generated by any symmetry of the operator, including those of the non-Lie type. An explicit example is made of the Dirac equation were we use our construction to find a class of conservation laws associated with a 64 dimensional Lie algebra of discrete symmetries that includes CPT.

Conservation Laws and Potential Systems of Diffusion-Convection Equations

In her famous paper [14] Emmy Noether proved that each Noether symmetry associated with a Lagrangian generates a conservation law. (Modern treatment of relationship between components of Noether conserved vector and Lie–Bäcklund operators which are Noether symmetries was adduced in [10,18]. Kara et al [12,13] constructed conservation laws of some classes of PDEs with two independent variables u...

Conservation Laws and Associated Lie Symmetries for the 2d Ricci Flow Model∗

The paper presents a connection between Lie symmetries and conservation laws for the 2D Ricci flow model.The procedure starts by obtaining a set of multipliers which generates conservation laws.Then, taking into account the most general form of multiplier and making use of a relation which connects Lie symmetries and conservation laws for any dynamical system, one determines associated symmetry...

Variational Tricomplex, Global Symmetries and Conservation Laws of Gauge Systems

Using the concept of variational tricomplex endowed with a presymplectic structure, we formulate the general notion of symmetry. We show that each generalized symmetry of a gauge system gives rise to a sequence of conservation laws that are represented by onshell closed forms of various degrees. This extends the usual Noether’s correspondence between global symmetries and conservation laws to t...
