Symmetries, Conservation Laws and Multipliers via Partial Lagrangians and Noether’s Theorem for Classically Non-Variational Problems

Abstract: We show how one can construct conservation laws of equations that are not variational but are Euler-Lagrange in part using Noether-type symmetries associated with partial Lagrangians. These Noether-type symmetries are, usually, not symmetries of the system. The resultant construction of the conservation law resorts to a formula equivalent to Noether's theorem. A variety of examples are given.

“…• If a 1 = 0, a 2 = 0, a 3 = 0, the coefficients X 4 , X 5 could be vanished by F s 3 3 , F s 4 4 , by setting s 3 = arctan( a 4 a 5 ), s 4 = arctan( a 5 a 3 ) respectively.By scaling X we can put a 3 = 1 so X is reduced to case (7).…”

“…Noether's theorem [11,12] provides a method for finding conservation laws of differential equations arising from a known Lagrangian and having a known Lie symmetry. This theorem relies on the availability of a Lagrangian and the corresponding Noether symmetries which leave invariant the action integral, [7,9].…”

“…[22][23][24] In 1918, Noether 25 proved that each conservation law is associated with an appropriate symmetry 26,27 and can be derived from Lagrangian function and invariance principle. [28][29][30] In recent years, several fractional generalizations of Noether's theorem were proved, 31 and some of the fractional conservation laws of different equations have been calculated. Since the order of the (3 + 1)-dimensional time-fractional modified Burgers equation is only two, the conservation laws of the (3 + 1)-dimensional time-fractional modified Burgers equation are constructed by using a simpler Noether method.…”

“…In the absence of a Lagrangian, which is the case for (2), one has to resort to a number of adhoc methods to determine these. However, we use a recently developed novel method of 'partial Lagrangian' and 'Noether type generators' [5,8] which enjoys the convenience of the method used in the variational case and a formula equivalent to Noether's theorem to determine exact conservation laws. We, consequently, obtain a number of interesting conserved flows for (2) associated with Noether type generators that may appear to be of typical physical value like conservation of energy, spin and those coming from scaling generators.…”
