Pseudosymmetries and differential substitutions (Q1120066): Difference between revisions

The invariance property of the parabolic equation \[ u_ t=F(x,u,u_ 1,...,u_ n),\quad u_ i=\partial^ iu/\partial x^ i \] under an arbitrary one parameter group G of the point transformations \(\tilde x=\phi (x,u)\), \(\tilde u=\psi (x,u)\) guarantees the existence of a differential transformation \(\sigma_ G\) which transforms the equation (1) into an equation \(\tilde u_ t=\Phi (\tilde x,\tilde u,\tilde u_ 1,...,\tilde u_ n).\) This paper explains which symmetries of the equation (1) correspond to existence of arbitrary differential transformations.
