A heat transfer with a source: the complete set of invariant difference schemes
In this letter we present the set of invariant difference equations and
meshes which preserve the Lie group symmetries of the equation
u_{t}=(K(u)u_{x})_{x}+Q(u). All special cases of K(u) and Q(u) that extend the
symmetry group admitted by the differential equation are considered. This paper
completes the paper [J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 30, no. 23 (1997) 8139-8155], where
a few invariant models for heat transfer equations were presented.Comment: arxiv version is already officia
The higher order C_n dispersion coefficients for the alkali atoms
The van der Waals coefficients, from C_11 through to C_16 resulting from 2nd,
3rd and 4th order perturbation theory are estimated for the alkali (Li, Na, K
and Rb) atoms. The dispersion coefficients are also computed for all possible
combinations of the alkali atoms and hydrogen. The parameters are determined
from sum-rules after diagonalizing the fixed core Hamiltonian in a large basis.
Comparisons of the radial dependence of the C_n/r^n potentials give guidance as
to the radial regions in which the various higher-order terms can be neglected.
It is seen that including terms up to C_10/r^10 results in a dispersion
interaction that is accurate to better than 1 percent whenever the
inter-nuclear spacing is larger than 20 a_0. This level of accuracy is mainly
achieved due to the fortuitous cancellation between the repulsive (C_11, C_13,
C_15) and attractive (C_12, C_14, C_16) dispersion forces.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figure
Symmetry-preserving discrete schemes for some heat transfer equations
Lie group analysis of differential equations is a generally recognized
method, which provides invariant solutions, integrability, conservation laws
etc. In this paper we present three characteristic examples of the construction
of invariant difference equations and meshes, where the original continuous
symmetries are preserved in discrete models. Conservation of symmetries in
difference modeling helps to retain qualitative properties of the differential
equations in their difference counterparts.Comment: 21 pages, 4 ps figure
Infinite series solutions of the symmetry equation for the dimensional continuous Toda chain
A sequence of solutions to the equation of symmetry for the continuous Toda
chain in dimensions is represented in explicit form. This fact leads to
the supposition that this equation is completely integrable.Comment: 9 pages, latex, no figure
The variational symmetries and conservation laws in classical theory of Heisenberg (anti)ferromagnet
The nonlinear partial differential equations describing the spin dynamics of
Heisenberg ferro and antiferromagnet are studied by Lie transformation group
method. The generators of the admitted variational Lie symmetry groups are
derived and conservation laws for the conserved currents are found via
