A symmetry of an equation will leave the set all solutions invariant. 'conditional symmetry' only a subset solutions, defined by some differential condition, The authors show how specific class conditional symmetries can be used to reduce partial ordinary one. In particular, for Boussinesq equation, these symmetries, together with ones, provide possible reductions equations. group theoretical explanation recently obtained new is provided.

A superintegrable system is, roughly speaking, a that allows more integrals of motion than degrees freedom. This review is devoted to finite dimensional classical and quantum systems with scalar potentials are polynomials in the momenta. We present classification second-order two-dimensional Riemannian pseudo-Riemannian spaces. It based on study quadratic algebras equivalence different under coupling constant metamorphosis.

The Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) equation (ut+3uux/2+ 1/4 uxxx)x +3σuyy/4=0 allows an infinite-dimensional Lie group of symmetries, i.e., a transforming solutions amongst each other. algebra this symmetry depends on three arbitrary functions time ‘‘t’’ and is shown to be related subalgebra the loop A(1)4. Low-dimensional subalgebras are identified, specifically all those dimension n≤3, also physically important six-dimensional containing translations, dilations, Galilei transformations,...

The Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) hierarchy is an infinite set of nonlinear partial differential equations in which the number independent variables increases indefinitely as one proceeds down hierarchy. Since these were obtained part a group theoretical approach to soliton it would appear that KP provides integrable scalar with arbitrary variables. It shown, by investigating specific equation 3+1 dimensions, higher are only conditional sense. under study, taken isolation, does not pass...

We consider the ``missing label'' problem for basis vectors of SU(3) representations in a corresponding to group reduction SU(3)⊃O(3)⊃O(2). prove that only two independent O (3) scalars exist enveloping algebra S U (3), addition obvious ones, namely angular momentum L2 and Casimir operators C(2) C(3).

A new class of ‘‘solvable’’ nonlinear dynamical systems has been recently identified by the requirement that ordinary differential equations (ODE’s) describing each member this possess superposition principles. These ODE’s are generally not derived from a Hamiltonian and classified associated pairs Lie algebras vector fields. In paper, all such n≤3 integrated in unified way finding explicit integrals for them relating to ‘‘pivotal’’ their class: projective Riccati equations. Moreover,...

An infinite family of exactly solvable and integrable potentials on a plane is introduced. It shown that all already known rational with the above properties allowing separation variables in polar coordinates are particular cases this family. The underlying algebraic structure new revealed as well its hidden algebra. We conjecture members also superintegrable demonstrate for first few cases. A quasi-exactly-solvable generalization found.

Lie group theory was originally created more than 100 years ago as a tool for solving ordinary and partial differential equations. In this article we review the results of much recent program: use groups to study difference We show that mismatch between continuous symmetries discrete equations can be resolved in at least two manners. One is generalized acting on solutions equations, but leaving lattice invariant. The other restrict them point symmetries, allow also transform lattice.
