Constant of motion, Hamiltonian, and Lagrangian for autonomous systems defined in a hyperbolic flat space

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:10189016

The Lagrangian, the Hamiltonian, and the Generalized Linear Momentum of an autonomous dynamical system defined in a hyperbolic flat space are studied in terms of a constant of motion associated with this system. Some restrictions in the symmetry of the Lagrangian are required in order for the Euler-Lagrange equations to be satisfied. The one-dimensional relativistic motion is given as an example of the approach.
