The Lie theorem for Birkhoffian systems with time-scale nonshifted variational problems are studied, including free Birkhoffian system, generalized Birkhoffian system and constrained Birkhoffian system. First, the time-scale nonshifted generalized Pfaff-Birkhoff principle is established, and the dynamical equations for three Birkhoffian systems under nonshifted variational problems are deduced. Afterwards, in the time-scale nonshifted variational problems, by introducing the infinitesimal transformations, Lie symmetry for free Birkhoffian system, generalized Birkhoffian system and constrained Birkhoffian system are defined respectively. Then Lie symmetry theorems for three kinds of Birkhoffian systems are deduced and proved. In the end, three examples are given to explain the applications for the results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
