Is Noether's theorem reversible? For example, given some conserved quantity, can you find the underlying symmetry which leads to the conserved quantity?

Does this answer your question? Is the converse of Noether's first theorem true: Every conservation law has a symmetry? – AccidentalFourierTransform Apr 08 '21 at 19:07
