Abstract

Today Noether's principal theorem occupies a prominent place in theoretical physics, though for a long time its significance was largely overlooked. Even now, relatively few physicists realize that Emmy Noether's original paper from 1918 contains two fundamental theorems. Moreover, both theorems are essential for understanding her original motivation, namely to distinguish between proper and improper conservation laws in physics.
