Lie Symmetrical Perturbation and Adiabatic Invariants of Generalized Hojman Type for Relativistic Birkhoffian Systems

For a relativistic Birkhoffian system, the Lie symmetrical perturbation and adiabatic invariants of generalized Bojman type are studied under general infinitesimal transformations. On the basis of the invariance of relativistic Birkhotfian equations under general infinitesimal transformations,Lie symmetrical transformations of the system are constructed, which only depend on the Birkhoffian variables. The exact invariants in the form of generalized Hojman conserved quantities led by the Lie symmetries of relativistic Birkhoffian system without perturbations are given. Based on the definition of higher-order adiabatic invariants of a mechanical system, the perturbation of Lie symmetries for relativistic Birkhoffian system with the action of small disturbance is investigated, and a new type of adiabatic invariants of the system is obtained. In the end of the paper, an example is given to illustrate the application of the results.

For a nonholonomic mechanics system with the action of small disturbance, the Lie symmetrical perturbation and adiabatic invariants of generalized Hojman type are studied under general infinitesimal transformations of groups in which the generalized coordinates and time are variable. On the basis of the invariance of disturbed nonholonomic dynamical equations under general infinitesimal transformations, the determining equations, the constrained restriction equations and the additional restriction equations of Lie symmetries of the system are constructed, which only depend on the variables t, qs and q^.s. Based on the definition of higher-order adiabatic invariants of a mechanical system, the perturbation of Lie symmetries for a nonholonomic system with the action of small disturbance is investigated, and the Lie symmetrical adiabatic invariants, the weakly Lie symmetrical adiabatic invariants and the strongly Lie symmetrical adiabatic invariants of generalized Hojman type of disturbed nonholonomic systems are obtained. An example is given to illustrate applications of the results.

We study a new symmetric perturbation, i.e. weakly Noether symmetric perturbation （WNSP）. The criterion and definition of WNSP and Noether symmetric perturbation （NSP） are given. A theorem between WNSP and adiabatic invariants is established. It is concluded that WNSP is different from NSP, the sufficient condition when WNSP is NSP can be presented, and the former is broader. We apply our results to the planar Kepler problem.

The necessary and suttlcient condition, that conformal invariance of the system would be Lie symmetry, is obtained under the infinitesimal one-parameter transformation group. The corresponding conserved quantity is derived with the aid of a structure equation. Lastly, an example is given to demonstrate the application of the result.
