Abstract

Based on the phase space generating functional of Green function for a system with regular higher-order Lagrangian, the conserved charge is deduced at quantum level if the canonical action is invariant under the global symmetry transformation in extended phase space. The generalization of our results to a system with singular higher-order Lagrangian is also studied. In general the quantal conserved charges are different from classical ones.
