Noether's theorem states that every continuous symmetry of the action of a physical system with conservative forces has a corresponding conservation law.This is the first of two theorems (see Noether's second theorem) published by the mathematician Emmy Noether in 1918. [1]
An application of the second isomorphism theorem identifies projective linear groups: for example, the group on the complex projective line starts with setting = (), the group of invertible 2 × 2 complex matrices, = (), the subgroup of determinant 1 matrices, and the normal subgroup of scalar matrices = {():}, we have = {}, where is ...

For a given genus g, the moduli space for curves C of genus g should contain a dense subset parameterizing those curves with the minimum in the way of special divisors. One goal of the theory is to 'count constants', for those curves: to predict the dimension of the space of special divisors (up to linear equivalence) of a given degree d, as a function of g, that must be present on a curve of ...

Noether identities need not be independent, but satisfy first-stage Noether identities, which are subject to the second-stage Noether identities and so on. Higher-stage Noether identities also are separated into the trivial and non-trivial once. A degenerate Lagrangian is called reducible if there exist non-trivial higher-stage Noether identities.
In mathematical analysis, Schwarz's theorem (or Clairaut's theorem on equality of mixed partials) [9] named after Alexis Clairaut and Hermann Schwarz, states that for a function : defined on a set , if is a point such that some neighborhood of is contained in and has continuous second partial derivatives on that neighborhood of , then for all i ...
Being Lagrangian symmetries, gauge symmetries of a Lagrangian satisfy Noether's first theorem, but the corresponding conserved current takes a particular superpotential form = + where the first term vanishes on solutions of the Euler–Lagrange equations and the second one is a boundary term, where is called a superpotential.
