Locally variational invariant field equations and global currents: Chern-Simons theories
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.
