Lie symmetry analysis and group invariant solutions of the nonlinear Helmholtz equation

Applied Mathematics and Computation

We consider the nonlinear Helmholtz (NLH) equation describing the beam propagation in a planar waveguide with Kerr-like nonlinearity under non-paraxial approximation. By applying the Lie symmetry analysis, we determine the Lie point symmetries and the corresponding symmetry reductions in the form of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with the help of the optimal systems of one-dimensional subalgebras. Our investigation reveals an important fact that in spite of the original NLH equation being non-integrable, its symmetry reductions are of Painlevé integrable. We study the resulting sets of nonlinear ODEs analytically either by constructing the integrals of motion using the modified Prelle-Singer method or by obtaining explicit travelling wave-like solutions including solitary and symbiotic solitary wave solutions. Also, we carry out a detailed numerical analysis of the reduced equations and obtain multi-peak nonlinear wave trains. As a special case of the NLH equation, we also make a comparison between the symmetries of the present NLH system and that of the standard nonlinear Schrödinger equation for which symmetries are long available in the literature.

An optimal System of Lie Subalgebras and Group-Invariant Solutions with Conserved Currents of a (3+1)-D Fifth-Order Nonlinear Model I with Applications in Electrical Electronics, Chemical Engineering and Pharmacy

Journal of Nonlinear Mathematical Physics

Higher-dimensional nonlinear integrable partial differential equations are significant as they often describe diverse phenomena in nonlinear systems like laser radiations in a plasma, optical pulses in the glass fibres, fluid mechanics, radio waves in the ion sphere, condensed matter and electromagnetics. This article shows an analytical investigation of a (3+1)-dimensional fifth-order nonlinear model with KdV forming its main part. Lie group analysis of the model is performed through which its infinitesimal generators are obtained. These generators are engaged in the construction of an optimal system of Lie subalgebra in one dimension. Moreover, members of the system secured are utilized in reducing the underlying model to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) for possible exact solutions. In consequence, we achieve various functions, ranging from trigonometric, logarithmic, rational, to hyperbolic. In addition, the results found constitute diverse solitonic solutions such as comp...

A third-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation: the exact solutions, group-invariant solutions and conservation laws

Journal of Taibah University for Science, 2020

In this study, we consider the third order nonlinear Schrödinger equation (TONSE) that models the wave pulse transmission in a time period less than one-trillionth of a second. With the help of the extended modified method, we obtain numerous exact travelling wave solutions containing sets of generalized hyperbolic, trigonometric and rational solutions that are more general than classical ones. Secondly, we construct the transformation groups which left the equations invariant and vector fields with the Lie symmetry groups approach. With the help of these vector fields, we obtain the symmetry reductions and exact solutions of the equation. The obtained groupinvariant solutions are Jacobi elliptic function and exponential type. We discuss the dynamic behaviour and structure of the exact solutions for distinct solutions of arbitrary constants. Lastly, we obtain conservation laws of the considered equation by construing the complex equation as a system of two real partial differential equations (PDEs).

Soliton Solutions, Conservation Laws, and Reductions of Certain Classes of NonlinearWave Equations

Zeitschrift für Naturforschung A, 2012

In this paper, the soliton solutions and the corresponding conservation laws of a few nonlinear wave equations will be obtained. The Hunter-Saxton equation, the improved Korteweg-de Vries equation, and other such equations will be considered. The Lie symmetry approach will be utilized to extract the conserved densities of these equations. The soliton solutions will be used to obtain the conserved quantities of these equations.

Lie Algebra Classification, Conservation Laws, and Invariant Solutions for a Generalization of the Levinson–Smith Equation

International Journal of Differential Equations, 2021

We obtain the optimal system’s generating operators associated with a generalized Levinson–Smith equation; this one is related to the Lienard equation which is important for physical, mathematical, and engineering points of view. The underlying equation has applications in mechanics and nonlinear dynamics as well. This equation has been widely studied in the qualitative scheme. Here, we treat the equation by using the Lie group method, and we obtain certain operators; using those operators, we characterized all invariants solutions associated with the generalized equation of Levinson Smith considered in this paper. Finally, we classify the Lie algebra associated with the given equation.

Symmetry Classification of Third-Order Nonlinear Evolution Equations. Part I: Semi-simple Algebras

We give a complete point-symmetry classification of all third-order evolution equations of the form u t = F (t, x, u, u x , u xx)u xxx + G(t, x, u, u x , u xx) which admit semi-simple symmetry algebras and extensions of these semi-simple Lie algebras by solvable Lie algebras. The methods we employ are extensions and refinements of previous techniques which have been used in such classifications.

Lie symmetries and reductions via invariant solutions of general short pulse equation

Frontiers in Physics, 2023

Around 1880, Lie introduced an idea of invariance of the partial differential equation (PDE) under one-parameter Lie group of transformation to find the invariant, similarity, or auto-model solutions. Lie symmetry analysis (LSA) provides us an algorithm to search for point symmetries for solving related linear systems for infinitesimal generators. Actually, point symmetries lead us to one-parameter family of solutions from a known solution. LSA is a program that provides us the exact solutions for the non-linear differential equations (DEs) in analogy of the program designed by Galois for algebraic polynomial equations. In this paper, we have carried out the LSA for computing the similarity solutions (symmetries) of the non-linear short pulse equation (SPE) for the cases when h(u) = e u , k(u) = u xx , h(u) e u n , and k(u) = u xx. In addition, an optimal system of one-dimensional subalgebra has been set up. The reductions and invariant solutions for the generalized SPE are calculated corresponding to this optimal system as well. Reductions reduce the non-linear PDE or system of PDEs into non-linear reduced ordered ODE or system of PDEs. This helps to solve these systems of PDEs to reduced form. Graphical behavior of the transformed points of the 1-parameter solution functions have drawn.

Classification of classical and non-local symmetries of fourth-order nonlinear evolution equations

In this paper, we consider group classification of local and quasi-local symmetries for a general fourth-order evolution equations in one spatial variable. Following the approach developed in [22], we construct all inequivalent evolution equations belonging to the class under study which admit either semi-simple Lie groups or solvable Lie groups. The obtained lists of invariant equations (up to a local change of variables) contain both the well-known equations and a variety of new ones possessing rich symmetry. Based on the results on the group classification for local symmetries, the group classification for quasi-local symmetries of the equations is also given.

Symmetry classification of KdV-type nonlinear evolution equations

Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2004

Group classification of a class of third-order nonlinear evolution equations generalizing KdV and mKdV equations is performed. It is shown that there are two equations admitting simple Lie algebras of dimension three. Next, we prove that there exist only four equations invariant with respect to Lie algebras having nontrivial Levi factors of dimension four and six. Our analysis shows that there are no equations invariant under algebras which are semi-direct sums of Levi factor and radical. Making use of these results we prove that there are three, nine, thirty-eight, fifty-two inequivalent KdV-type nonlinear evolution equations admitting one-, two-, three-, and four-dimensional solvable Lie algebras, respectively. Finally, we perform a complete group classification of the most general linear third-order evolution equation. *
