This article explains how discrete symmetry groups can be directly applied to obtain the particular solutions of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The particular solutions of some nonlinear ordinary differential equations have been generated by means of their discrete symmetry groups.
In this article, an invariantized finite difference scheme to find the solution of the heat equation, is developed. The scheme is based on a discrete symmetry transformation. A comparison of the results obtained by the proposed scheme and the Crank Nicolson method is carried out with reference to the exact solutions. It is found that the proposed invariantized scheme for the heat equation improves the efficiency and accuracy of the existing Crank Nicolson method.
In this article, we focus on the new exact solutions of Burger’s equation by using a new technique which is known as the power index method (PIM). In this method, we choose suitable indexes of independent variables and similarity transformation so that the partial differential equation may be converted into ODE. We have obtained analytic solution of the ODE by using symbolic package Maple. We have got exact solution of Burgers’ equation by using analytic solution of ODE and similarity transformation. The proposed method has been effectively employed to find new exact solutions for the nonlinear Burgers’ equation. Finally, the proposed resulting answers are compared with the homotopy perturbation, decomposition, and variational iteration solutions.
In this article, Lie and discrete symmetry transformation groups of linear and nonlinear Newell-Whitehead-Segel (NWS) equations are obtained. By using these symmetry transformation groups, several group invariant solutions of considered NWS equations have been constructed. Furthermore, some more group invariant solutions are generated by using discrete symmetry transformation group. Graphical representations of some obtained solutions are also presented.
