Lagrangian approach to deriving energy-preserving numerical schemes for the Euler-Lagrange partial differential equations
ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis , Tome 47 (2013) no. 5, pp. 1493-1513.

We propose a Lagrangian approach to deriving energy-preserving finite difference schemes for the Euler-Lagrange partial differential equations. Noether's theorem states that the symmetry of time translation of Lagrangians yields the energy conservation law. We introduce a unique viewpoint on this theorem: “the symmetry of time translation of Lagrangians derives the Euler-Lagrange equation and the energy conservation law, simultaneously.” The proposed method is a combination of a discrete counter part of this statement and the discrete gradient method. It is also shown that the symmetry of space translation derives momentum-preserving schemes. Finally, we discuss the existence of discrete local conservation laws.
