· J. Math. Phys. (N.Y.); (United States)
Expressions for the remainder function of a time dependent infinitesimally generated canonical transformation have recently been found by Dewar, who considered the action of the transformation operators on Liouville's equation. Here an alternate proof of the remainder function expression is given, based on the transformations of particle trajectories. Then, using this expression, a proof of the symmetry-equals-invariant theorem is given.
