Lie symmetry analysis of certain nonlinear evolution equations of mathematical physics / Abdullahi Rashid Adem.Adem, Abdullahi Rashid January 2013 (has links)
In this work we study the applications of Lie symmetry analysis to certain nonlinear
evolution equations of mathematical physics. Exact solutions and conservation laws
are obtained for such equations. The equations which are considered in this thesis
are a generalized Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation, a two-dimensional integrable
generalization of the Kaup-Kupershmidt equation, a coupled Korteweg-de Vries system,
a generalized coupled variable-coefficient modified Korteweg-de Vries system, a
new coupled Korteweg-de Vries system and a new coupled Kadomtsev-Petviashvili
system.
The generalized Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation is investigated from the point
of view of Lie group classification. We show that this equation admits a four-dimensional
equivalence Lie algebra. It is also shown that the principal Lie algebra
consists of a single translation symmetry. Several possible extensions of the principal
Lie algebra are computed and their associated symmetry reductions and exact
solutions are obtained.
The Lie symmetry method is performed on a two-dimensional integrable generalization
of the Kaup-Kupershmidt equation. Exact solutions are obtained using the
Lie symmetry method in conjunction with the extended tanh method and the extended
Jacobi elliptic function method. In addition to exact solutions we also present
conservation laws which are derived using the multiplier approach.
A coupled Korteweg-de Vries system and a generalized coupled variable-coefficient
modified Korteweg-de Vries system are investigated using Lie symmetry analysis.
The similarity reductions and exact solutions with the aid of simplest equations
and Jacobi elliptic function methods are obtained for the coupled Korteweg-de Vries
system and the generalized coupled variable-coefficient modified Korteweg-de Vries
system. In addition to this, the conservation laws for the two systems are derived
using the multiplier approach and the conservation theorem due to Ibragimov.
Finally, a new coupled Korteweg-de Vries system and a new coupled Kadomtsev
Petviashvili system are analyzed using Lie symmetry method. Exact solutions are
obtained using the Lie symmetry method in conjunction with the simplest equation,
Jacobi elliptic function and (G'/G)-expansion methods. Conservation laws are also
obtained for both the systems by employing the multiplier approach. / Thesis (PhD.(Applied Mathematics) North-West University, Mafikeng Campus, 2013

Symmetry reductions, exact solutions and conservation laws of a variable coefficient (2+1)-dimensional zakharov-kuznetsov equation / Letlhogonolo Daddy Moleleki.Moleleki, Letlhogonolo Daddy January 2011 (has links)
This research studies two nonlinear problems arising in mathematical physics. Firstly
the Korteweg-de Vrics-Burgers equation is considered. Lie symmetry method is
used to obtain t he exact solutions of Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation. Also
conservation laws are obtained for this equation using the new conservation theorem.
Secondly, we consider the generalized (2+ 1)-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznctsov (ZK)
equation of time dependent variable coefficients from the Lie group-theoretic point
of view. We classify the Lie point symmetry generators to obtain the optimal system
of one-dimensional subalgebras of t he Lie symmetry algebras. These subalgebras arc
then used to construct a number of symmetry reductions and exact group-invariant
solutions of the ZK equation. We utilize the new conservation theorem to construct
the conservation laws of t he ZK equation. / Thesis (M. Sci in Applied Mathematics) North-West University, Mafikeng Campus, 2011

Symmetries in general relativitySteele, John D. January 1989 (has links)
The purpose of this thesis is to study those non-flat space-times in General Relativity admitting high dimensional Lie groups of motions, homotheties, conformals and affines, and to prove a theorem on the relationship between the first three of these. The basic theories and notations of differential geometry are set up first, and a useful theorem on first-order partial differential equations is proved. The concepts of General Relativity are introduced, space-times are defined and a brief account of the well-known Petrov and Segre classifications is given. The interplay between these classifications and the isotropy structure of the various Lie groups is discussed as is the so-called 'Schmidt method'. Generalised p.p. waves are studied, with a special study of the subclass of generalised plane waves undertaken, many different characterisations of these latter are found and their admitted symmetries are completely described. Motions, homotheties and affines are considered. A survey of symmetries in Minkowski space, and a summary of known results on space-times with high dimensional groups of motions is given. The problem of r-dimensional groups of homotheties is studied. The r 6 cases are completely resolved, and examples in the r = 5 cases are given. All examples of non-flat space-times admitting the maximal group of affines are displayed, correcting an error in the literature. The thesis ends with a proof of the Bilyalov-Defrise-Carter theorem, which states that for any non conformally flat space-time there is a conformally related metric for which the original group of conformals is a group of homotheties (motions if not conformal to generalised plane waves). The proof given does not use Bilyalov's analyticity assumption, and is more geometric than Defrise-Carter. The maximum size of the conformal group for a given Petrov type is found. An appendix gives a brief account of some REDUCE routines used to check some algebraic manipulations.
