Key Equations

$$\partial_\mu J^\mu = 0$$
$$\delta \phi(x) = \phi'(x) - \phi(x)$$
$$\delta S = \int d^4x \left[\frac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial \phi}\delta \phi + \frac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial(\partial_\mu \phi)}\partial_\mu(\delta \phi)\right] + \int d^4x \, \partial_\mu(\mathcal{L} \delta x^\mu)$$
$$J^\mu = \pi^\mu \delta \phi = \frac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial(\partial_\mu \phi)}\delta \phi$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
