摘要：

We introduce a geometrical framework for the description of constrained mechanical systems, and we analyse different kinds of symmetries and their relationships. We propose a new definition for non-holonomic Lagrangian mechanical systems, and we give a geometrical characterization for the Helmholtz conditions related to the inverse problem.
