Gauge-natural field theories and Noether theorems: canonical covariant conserved currents

Palese, Marcella, Winterroth, Ekkehart

Similarity:

Summary: We specialize in a new way the second Noether theorem for gauge-natural field theories by relating it to the Jacobi morphism and show that it plays a fundamental role in the derivation of canonical covariant conserved quantities. In particular we show that Bergmann-Bianchi identities for such theories hold true covariantly and canonically only along solutions of generalized gauge-natural Jacobi equations. Vice versa, all vertical parts of gauge-natural lifts of infinitesimal...

We introduce the concept of conserved current variationally associated with locally variational invariant field equations. The invariance of the variation of the corresponding local presentation is a sufficient condition for the current beeing variationally equivalent to a global one. The case of a Chern-Simons theory is worked out and a global current is variationally associated with a Chern-Simons local Lagrangian.
