We study differential systems for which it is possible to establish a correspondence between symmetries and conservation laws based on Noether identity: quasi-Noether systems. We analyze Noether identity and show that it leads to the same conservation laws as Lagrange (Green–Lagrange) identity. We discuss quasi-Noether systems, and some of their properties, and generate classes of quasi-Noether differential equations of the second order. We next introduce a more general version of quasi-Lagrangians which allows us to extend Noether theorem. Here, variational symmetries are only sub-symmetries, not true symmetries. We finally introduce the critical point condition for evolution equations with a conserved integral, demonstrate examples of its compatibility, and compare the invariant submanifolds of quasi-Lagrangian systems with those of Hamiltonian systems.

We undertake a detailed analysis of the symmetry structures of the plane symmetric and the locally rotationally symmetric (LRS) Bianchi type I spacetimes in the [Formula: see text] gravity. In particular, we construct all the variational symmetries associated with its Lagrangian and, in some cases, construct the associated conservation laws using Noether’s theorem. Giving a comparison between isometries and variational symmetries, we give symmetry structures of some well-known spacetimes.

The main purpose of this work is to focus on a discussion of Lie symmetries admitted by de Sitter–Schwarzschild spacetime metric, and the corresponding wave or Klein–Gordon equations constructed in the de Sitter–Schwarzschild geometry. The obtained symmetries are classified and the variational (Noether) conservation laws associated with these symmetries via the natural Lagrangians are obtained. In the case of the metric, we obtain additional variational ones when compared with the Killing vectors leading to additional conservation laws and for the wave and Klein–Gordon equations, the variational symmetries involve less tedious calculations as far as invariance studies are concerned.

In this paper, we will present Lagrangian and Hamiltonian [Formula: see text]-symplectic formalisms, we will recall the notions of symmetry and conservation law and we will define the notion of pseudosymmetry as a natural extension of symmetry. Using symmetries and pseudosymmetries, without the help of a Noether type theorem, we will obtain new kinds of conservation laws for [Formula: see text]-symplectic Hamiltonian systems and [Formula: see text]-symplectic Lagrangian systems.

In this paper, a 3 × 3 matrix spectral problem with six potentials is considered. With the help of the compatibility condition, a hierarchy of new nonlinear evolution equations which can be reduced to the coupled derivative nonlinear Schrödinger (CDNLS) equations is obtained. By use of the trace identity, it is proved that all the members in this new hierarchy have generalized bi-Hamiltonian structures. Moreover, infinitely many conservation laws of this hierarchy are constructed.

Abstract Recently, the fractional Noether’s theorem derived by G. Frederico and D.F.M. Torres in [10] was proved to be wrong by R.A.C. Ferreira and A.B. Malinowska in (see [7]) using a counterexample and doubts are stated about the validity of other Noether’s type Theorem, in particular ([9], Theorem 32). However, the counterexample does not explain why and where the proof given in [10] does not work. In this paper, we make a detailed analysis of the proof proposed by G. Frederico and D.F.M. Torres in [9] which is based on a fractional generalization of a method proposed by J. Jost and X.Li-Jost in the classical case. This method is also used in [10]. We first detail this method and then its fractional version. Several points leading to difficulties are put in evidence, in particular the definition of variational symmetries and some properties of local group of transformations in the fractional case. These difficulties arise in several generalization of the Jost’s method, in particular in the discrete setting. We then derive a fractional Noether’s Theorem following this strategy, correcting the initial statement of Frederico and Torres in [9] and obtaining an alternative proof of the main result of Atanackovic and al. [3].
