In this paper we show how the well-known local symmetries of Lagrangian systems, and in particular the diffeomorphism invariance, emerge in the Hamiltonian formulation. We show that only the constraints which are linear in the momenta generate transformations which correspond to symmetries of the corresponding Lagrangian system. The non-linear constraints (which we have, for instance, in gravity, supergravity and string theory) generate the dynamics of the corresponding Lagrangian system. Only in a very special combination with "trivial" transformations proportional to the equations of motion do they lead to symmetry transformations. We show the importance of these special "trivial" transformations for the interconnection theorems which relate the symmetries of a system with its dynamics. We prove these theorems for general Hamiltonian systems. We apply the developed formalism to concrete physically relevant systems, in particular those which are diffeomorphism-invariant. The connection between the parameters of the symmetry transformations in the Hamiltonian and Lagrangian formalisms is found. The possible applications of our results are discussed.

Many approaches to quantum gravity consider the revision of the space-time geometry and the structure of elementary particles. One of the main candidates is string theory. It is possible that this theory will be able to describe the problem of hierarchy, provided that there is an appropriate Calabi-Yau geometry. In this paper we will proceed from the traditional view on the structure of elementary particles in the usual four-dimensional space-time. The only condition is that quarks and leptons should have a common emerging structure. When a new formula for the mass of the hierarchy is obtained, this structure arises from topological quantum theory and a suitable choice of dimensional units.
