Noetherian symmetries of noncentral forces with drag term

arXiv:1608.03222 · doi:10.1142/S0219887817500189

Abstract

We consider the Noetherian symmetries of second-order ODEs subjected to forces with nonzero curl. Both position and velocity dependent forces are considered. In the former case the first integrals are shown to follow from the symmetries of the celebrated Emden-Fowler equation.
