Abstract
We obtain a classification of infinitesimal symmetries of an autonomous higher-order Lagrangian system by using the theory of lifts of vector fields to tangent bundles. Also, a classification of infinitesimal symmetries of a time-dependent higher-order Lagrangian system is obtained. The relationship between infinitesimal symmetries and constants of the motion is investigated.
