Description

In this paper, we study the Lie symmetrical Hojman conserved quantity of a relativistic mechanical system under general infinitesimal transformations of groups in which the time parameter is variable. The determining equation of Lie symmetry of the system is established. The theorem of the Lie symmetrical Hojman conserved quantity of the system is presented. The above results are generalization to Hojman's conclusions, in which the time parameter is not variable and the system is non-relativistic. An example is given to illustrate the application of the results in the last.
