Notes:
The SL(3,R) theory of projective transformations of the plane is applied to the Lagrangians of all one-dimensional Newtonian linear systems. Noether and non-Noether equivalent Lagrangians, as well as the associated Noether and non-Noether constants of motion, are thus obtained in a completely general and systematic way. Complete unification is achieved by this group-theoretic approach to Lagrangians of one-dimensional linear systems.
