This article uses Cartan-Kähler theory to construct local conservation laws from covariantly closed vector valued differential forms, objects that can be given, for example, by harmonic maps between two Riemannian manifolds. We apply the article's main result to construct conservation laws for covariant divergence free…

The abstract discusses vector fields on curved spaces and conservation laws.

We present infinitely many nonlocal conservation laws, a pair of compatible local Hamiltonian structures and a recursion operator for the equations describing surfaces in three-dimensional space that admit nontrivial deformations which preserve both principal directions and principal curvatures (or, equivalently, the s…

I consider the geometry of the general class of scalar 2nd-order differential equations with parabolic symbol, including non-linear and non-evolutionary parabolic equations. After defining the appropriate $G$-structure to model parabolic equations, I apply Cartan techniques to determine local geometric invariants (quan…

Conservation laws improve diffusion model training by optimizing likelihood.

We formulate the theory of nearly autoparallel maps (generalizing conformal transforms) of locally anisotropic spaces and define the nearly autoparallel integration as the inverse operation to both covariant derivation and deformation of connections by nearly autoparallel maps. By using this geometric formalism we cons…

We give new results concerning the Frobenius integrability and solution of evolution equations admitting travelling wave solutions. In particular, we give a powerful result which explains the extraordinary integrability of some of these equations. We also discuss "local" conservations laws for evolution equations in ge…

I consider the existence and structure of conservation laws for the general class of evolutionary scalar second-order differential equations with parabolic symbol. First I calculate the linearized characteristic cohomology for such equations. This provides an auxiliary differential equation satisfied by the conservatio…

This text is the extended version of a talk given at the conference Geometry, Topology, QFT and Cosmology hold from May 28 to May 30, 2008 at the Observatoire de Paris.

The conservation laws of the third order quasilinear scalar evolution equations are considered via differential system and characteristic cohomology. We find a subspace of 2 forms in the infinite prolonged space in which every conservation law has a unique representative. The structure of this subspace naturally gives …

We study higher-order conservation laws of the non-linearizable elliptic Poisson equation $\frac{{\partial}^2 u}{\partial z \partial \bar{z}} = -f(u)$ as elements of the characteristic cohomology of the associated exterior differential system. The theory of characteristic cohomology determines a normal form for diffe…

We present a connection between the Killing fields that arise in the loop-group approach to integrable systems and conservation laws viewed as elements of the characteristic cohomology. We use the connection to generate the complete set of conservation laws (as elements of the characteristic cohomology) for the Tzitzei…

We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of "conservation laws" on null hypersurfaces for the wave equation on general four-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds. Examples of null hypersurfaces exhibiting such conservation laws include the standard null cones of Minkowski spacetime and the degenerate …

Following an approach of the second author for conformally invariant variational problems in two dimensions, we show in four dimensions the existence of a conservation law for fourth order systems, which includes both intrinsic and extrinsic biharmonic maps. With the help of this conservation law we prove the continuit…

Noether's First Theorem yields conservation laws for Lagrangians with a variational symmetry group. The explicit formulae for the laws are well known and the symmetry group is known to act on the linear space generated by the conservation laws. In recent work the authors showed the mathematical structure behind both th…

We propose an extension of the differential system for constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces in a three dimensional space form to an associated hierarchy of evolution equations by the higher-order commuting symmetries. The infinite sequence of higher-order conservation laws of CMC surfaces admit the corresponding exte…

The exterior differential system for constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces in a 3-dimensional space form is an elliptic Monge-Ampere system defined on the unit tangent bundle. We determine the infinite sequence of higher-order symmetries and conservation laws via an enhanced prolongation modelled on a loop algebra val…

Using methods of math.DG/0304245 and [I.S.Krasil'shchik and P.H.M.Kersten, Symmetries and recursion operators for classical and supersymmetric differential equations, Kluwer, 2000], we accomplish an extensive study of the N=1 supersymmetric Korteweg-de Vries equation. The results include: a description of local and non…

Study connects surface classes to conservation laws.

We define quasi-local conserved quantities in general relativity by using the optimal isometric embedding in [26] to transplant Killing fields in the Minkowski spacetime back to the 2-surface of interest in a physical spacetime. To each optimal isometric embedding, a dual element of the Lie algebra of the Lorentz group…

Framework infers conservation laws from trained neural networks.

For one-dimensional systems of conservation laws admitting two additional conservation laws we assign a ruled surface of codimension two in projective space. We call two such systems dual if the corresponding ruled surfaces are dual. We show that a Hamiltonian system is autodual, its ruled surface sits in some quadric,…

An infinite sequence of commuting nonpolynomial contact symmetries of the two-dimensional minimal surface equation is constructed. Local and nonlocal conservation laws for $n$-dimensional minimal area surface equation are obtained by using the Noether identity.

In this paper we will present Lagrangian and Hamiltonian $k$-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 o…

In this paper we form a general conservation law that unifies a class of physics field theories. For this we first introduce the notion of a general field as a formal sum differential forms on a Minkowski manifold. Thereafter, we employ the action principle to define the conservation law for such general fields. By con…

Study of a generalized Konno--Oono system with conservation laws and surface immersions.

Harmonic functions $u:{\mathbb R}^n \to {\mathbb R}^m$ are equivalent to integral manifolds of an exterior differential system with independence condition $(M,{\mathcal I},ω)$. To this system one associates the space of conservation laws ${\mathcal C}$. They provide necessary conditions for $g:{\mathbb S}^{n-1} \to M$ …
