The classification of such operators is carried out with the help of analytic continuation of the Lagrangians on the line. Cases in which the Noether-like operators are also Noether symmetries for the systems of ODEs are briefly mentioned. In particular, the 8-dimensional maximal Noether subalgebra is remarkabely obtained for the simplest system of the free particle equations in two dimensions from the 5-dimensional complex Noether algebra. We present the effectivness of Noether-like operators as well as the determination of all first integrals of systems of nonlinear differential equation which have not been reported before. This study gives a new direction to construct first integrals for systems of nonlinear differential equations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2011-07-22T18:43:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "two-dimensional systems", "noether classification", "nonlinear differential equation", "noether-like operators", "lagrangians" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AIP", "journal": "Appl.
