Abstract: Starting from any one of hereditary symmetries, we can construct a type of integrable models with arbitrary dimensions. The models with different dimensions obtained from a same hereditary symmetry possess a common recursion operator. The symmetry structures of the models are studied in their potential forms. Using the formal series symmetry approach, we can get various sets of formal series symmetries with some arbitrary functions. Generally, these sets of series symmetries are not truncated for arbitrary functions. The series symmetries wiU all be truncated if the arbitrary functions are fixed as polynomials. Some sets of nontruncated symmetries constitute generalized Virasoro algebras. The more details about the symmetries and algebras are discussed for a concrete (3+1)-dimensional KdV equation.
