| Description | The phase space of general relativistic test particle is defined as the 1-jet space of motions. A Lorentzian metric and an electromagnetic field define the joined almost-cosymplectic-contact structure on the odd-dimensional phase space. In this paper, we study infinitesimal symmetries (ISs) of this phase structure. We prove that there are no hidden ISs. |
