This is in bijection with the notion of moment map. I claim it's more natural on account of its image is exactly the conserved charges (in a physics context) and also this definition generalises directly to the case where you have an $L_\infty$-algebra of symmetries, see e.g. arxiv.org/abs/1304.2051 | |
