... The question of switching the orders of integration and summation hinges upon the question of completeness, for an infinite series. For a finite series, such as this, there is no problem. In order to apply this to both sides of the equation, we’re going to need to write the charge distribution as a ...

Physics 6010, Fall 2010 Symmetries and Conservation Laws
... Let us begin by noting a very easy result: when a (generalized) coordinate does not appear in the Lagrangian, then a conserved quantity results. When a coordinate, q 1 say, is absent in the Lagrangian we say that q 1 is cyclic or ignorable. In this case we have ∂L ...

Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking
... There are many examples of spontaneous symmetry breaking. The potential with positive chemical potential we discussed for Bose–Einstein condensate, the “wine-bottle” or “Mexican hat” potential is a typical example of the potential that leads to spontaneous symmetry breaking.

Noether's theorem

Noether's (first) theorem states that every differentiable symmetry of the action of a physical system has a corresponding conservation law. The theorem was proven by German mathematician Emmy Noether in 1915 and published in 1918. The action of a physical system is the integral over time of a Lagrangian function (which may or may not be an integral over space of a Lagrangian density function), from which the system's behavior can be determined by the principle of least action.Noether's theorem has become a fundamental tool of modern theoretical physics and the calculus of variations. A generalization of the seminal formulations on constants of motion in Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics (developed in 1788 and 1833, respectively), it does not apply to systems that cannot be modeled with a Lagrangian alone (e.g. systems with a Rayleigh dissipation function). In particular, dissipative systems with continuous symmetries need not have a corresponding conservation law.
