A symmetry classification for a class of (2+1)-nonlinear wave equation

In this paper, a symmetry classification of a $(2+1)$-nonlinear wave equation $u_{tt}-f(u)(u_{xx}+u_{yy})=0$ where $f(u)$ is a smooth function on $u$, using Lie group method, is given. The basic infinitesimal method for calculating symmetry groups is presented, and used to determine the general symmetry group of this $(2+1)$-nonlinear wave equation

Symmetry group classification for general Burger's equation

The present paper solves the problem of the group classification of the general Burgers' equation $u_t=f(x,u)u_x^2+g(x,u)u_{xx}$, where $f$ and $g$ are arbitrary smooth functions of the variable $x$ and $u$, by using Lie method. The paper is one of the few applications of an algebraic approach to the problem of group classification: the method of preliminary group classification. A number of new interesting nonlinear invariant models which have nontrivial invariance algebras are obtained. The result of the work is a wide class of equations summarized in table form.Comment: 9 page
