𝑳= (𝒒 ̇ 𝟐 + 𝒒𝟐̇ 𝟐 ) − 𝑽(𝒂𝒒𝟏 − 𝒃𝒒𝟐 )
𝟐 𝟏
𝒑̇ 𝟏 = −𝒂𝑽′ (𝒂𝒒𝟏 − 𝒃𝒒𝟐 )
𝒑̇ 𝟐 = +𝒃𝑽′ (𝒂𝒒𝟏 − 𝒃𝒒𝟐 )
𝒒𝟏 → 𝒒𝟏 − 𝒃𝜹
𝒒𝟐 → 𝒒𝟐 − 𝒂𝜹
Show that the combination 𝒂𝒒𝟏 − 𝒃𝒒𝟐 , along with the Lagrangian, is invariant under the above
transformations.
𝑎𝑞1 − 𝑏𝑞2 = 𝑎(𝑞1 − 𝑏𝛿) − 𝑏(𝑞2 − 𝑎𝛿) = 𝑎𝑞1 − 𝑎𝑏𝛿 − 𝑏𝑞2 + 𝑎𝑏𝛿 = 𝑎𝑞1 − 𝑏𝑞2
We know that 𝑎 and 𝑏 are constants and that 𝛿 doesn’t depend on time.
