Approximate Hamiltonian symmetry groups and recursion operators for perturbed evolution equations (Q1953175)

Summary: The method of approximate transformation groups, which was proposed by \textit{V. A. Baĭkov} et al. [Math. USSR Sb. 64, No. 2, 427--441 (1989); translation from Mat. Sb., Nov. Ser. 136(178), No. 4(8), 435--450 (1988; Zbl 0683.35004)] and [CRC Handbook of Lie Group Analysis of Differential Equations, Vol. 3, CRC Press, Boca Raton, Florida (1996; Zbl 0864.35003)], is extended on Hamiltonian and bi-Hamiltonian systems of evolution equations. Indeed, as a main consequence, this extended procedure is applied in order to compute the approximate conservation laws and approximate recursion operators corresponding to these types of equations. In particular, as an application, a comprehensive analysis of the problem of approximate conservation laws and approximate recursion operators associated to the Gardner equation with the small parameters is presented.
