Nonlocal Symmetry of Nonlinear Wave Equations

From MaRDI portal
Publication:4497769





The paper deals with the nonlinear wave equations (1) \(u_{00}- \partial_1 [c(u)]=0\), where \(c(u)\) are arbitrarily smooth functions, \[ u_\mu= \partial_\mu u={\partial u\over\partial x_\mu},\quad u_{\mu\nu}= \partial_\mu \partial_\nu u={\partial^2 u\over\partial x_\mu \partial x_\nu} (\mu,\nu=0,1). \] A symmetry of equations (1) is extended using the nonlocal transformation which connects it with the corresponding linear equation [\textit{W. I. Fushchych} and the author, Dokl. Akad. Nauk Ukr. SSR, Ser. A 1990, No. 5, 32-36 (1990; Zbl 0724.35023)]. Nonlocal ansätze and nonlinear superposition formulae are obtained.
