AbstractGeometric structure of classical field theory in Lagrangian formulation is investigated. Symmetry transformations with generators depending on higher-order derivatives are considered and the corresponding conservation laws are obtained.

Lagrangians which depend on higher-order derivatives appear frequently in many areas of physics. In this paper, we reformulate Podolsky's Lagrangian in fractional form using left-right Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives. The equations of motion are obtained using the fractional Euler Lagrange equation. In addition, the energy stress tensor and the Hamiltonian are obtained in fractional form from the Lagrangian density. The resulting equations are very similar to those found in classical field theory.

The multisymplectic description of Classical Field Theories is revisited, including its relation with the presymplectic formalism on the space of Cauchy data. Both descriptions allow us to give a complete scheme of classification of infinitesimal symmetries, and to obtain the corresponding conservation laws.
