Finite symmetry transformation group of the Konopelchenkoben Dubrovsky equation from its Lax pair

Starting from a weak Lax pair, the general Lie point symmetry group of the Konopelchenko-Dubrovsky equation is obtained by using the general direct method. And the corresponding Lie algebra structure is proved to be a Kac-Moody-Virasoro type. Furthermore, a new multi-soliton solution for the Konopelchenko-Dubrovsky equation is also given from this symmetry group and a known solution.     

On Lipschitz solutions of the constant astigmatism equation

We show that the solutions of the constant astigmatism equation that correspond to a class of surfaces found by Lipschitz in 1887, exactly match the Lie symmetry invariant solutions and constitute a four-dimensional manifold. The two-dimensional orbit space with respect to the Lie symmetry group is described. Our approach relies on the link between constant astigmatism surfaces and orthogonal equiareal patterns. The counterpart sine–Gordon solutions are shown to be Lie symmetry invariant as well.

Nonlocal symmetry and explicit solution of the integrable Alice-Bob modified Korteweg-de Vries (ABmKdV) equation is discussed, which has been established by the aid of the shifted parity and delayed time reversal to describe two-place events. Based on the Lax pair which contains the two-order partial derivative, the Lie symmetry group method is successfully applied to find the exact invariant solution for the AB-mKdV equation with nonlocal symmetry by introducing one suitable auxiliary variable. Meanwhile, based on the prolonged system, the explicit analytic interaction solutions related to some specific functions are derived. Figures show the physical phenomenon, that is, "the shifted parity and delayed time reversal to describe two-place events".

Nonlinear self-adjointness and invariant solutions of a 2D Rossby wave equation

The paper investigates the nonlinear self-adjointness of the nonlinear inviscid barotropic nondivergent vorticity equation in a beta-plane. It is a particular form of Rossby equation which does not possess variational structure and it is studied using a recently method developed by Ibragimov. The conservation laws associated with the infinite-dimensional symmetry Lie algebra models are constructed and analyzed. Based on this Lie algebra, some classes of similarity invariant solutions with nonconstant linear and nonlinear shears are obtained. It is also shown how one of the conservation laws generates a particular wave solution of this equation.     

The Langevin equation on Lie algebras: Maxwell-Boltzmann is not always the equilibrium

We give a geometric formulation of the Fokker-Planck-Kramer equations for a particle moving on a Lie algebra under the influence of a dissipative and a random force. Special cases of interest are fluid mechanics, the Stochastic Loewner equation and the rigid body. We find that the Boltzmann distribution, although a static solution, is not normalizable when the algebra is not unimodular. This is because the invariant measure of integration in momentum space is not the standard one. We solve the special case of the upper half-plane (hyperboloid) explicitly: there is another equilibrium solution to the Fokker-Planck equation, which is integrable. It breaks rotation invariance.     

Localization of nonlocal symmetries and interaction solutions of the Sawada–Kotera equation

The nonlocal symmetry of the Sawada–Kotera(SK) equation is constructed with the known Lax pair. By introducing suitable and simple auxiliary variables, the nonlocal symmetry is localized and the finite transformation and some new solutions are obtained further. On the other hand, the group invariant solutions of the SK equation are constructed with the classic Lie group method.In particular, by a Galileo transformation some analytical soliton-cnoidal interaction solutions of a asymptotically integrable equation are discussed in graphical ways.

Special Lie symmetry and the Hojman conserved quantity for Appell equations in a dynamical system of relative motion are investigated. The definition and the criterion of the special Lie symmetry of Appell equations in a dynamical system of relative motion under infinitesimal group transformation are presented. The expression of the equation for the special Lie symmetry of Appell equations and the Hojman conserved quantity, deduced directly from the special Lie symmetry in a dynamical system of relative motion, are obtained. An example is given to illustrate the application of the results.     

Symmetry groups and spiral wave solution of a wave propagation equation

We study a third-order nonlinear evolution equation, which can be transformed to the modified KdV equation, using the Lie symmetry method. The Lie point symmetries and the one-dimensional optimal system of the symmetry algebras are determined. Those symmetries are some types of nonlocal symmetries or hidden symmetries of the modified KdV equation. The group-invariant solutions, particularly the travelling wave and spiral wave solutions, are discussed in detail, and a type of spiral wave solution which is smooth in the origin is obtained.     

Symmetry and general symmetry groups of the coupled Kadomtsev--Petviashvili equation

In this paper, the Lie symmetry algebra of the coupled Kadomtsev--Petviashvili (cKP) equation is obtained by the classical Lie group method and this algebra is shown to have a Kac--Moody--Virasoro loop algebra structure. Then the general symmetry groups of the cKP equation is also obtained by the symmetry group direct method which is proposed by Lou et al。 From the general symmetry groups, the Lie symmetry group can be recovered and a group of discrete transformations can be derived simultaneously. Lastly, from a known simple solution of the cKP equation, we can easily obtain two new solutions by the general symmetry groups.
