Group Classification and Exact Solutions of Nonlinear Wave Equations

Abstract: We perform complete group classification of the general class of quasi linear wave equations in two variables. This class may be seen as a broad generalization of the nonlinear d'Alembert, Liouville, sin/sinh-Gordon and Tzitzeica equations. In this way we derived a number of new genuinely nonlinear invariant models with high symmetry properties. In particular, we obtain four classes of nonlinear wave equations admitting five-dimensional invariance groups. Applying the symmetry reduction technique we construct … Show more

“…As a result, exact solutions differing from (30) were constructed for some of these equations. Below we consider several important equations of form (29) and use their exact solutions for the generation of new exact solutions for equations from class (7) with the coefficients given by (32).…”

“…Therefore, the aim of the present work is to find all possible Lie symmetries, which Equation (1) can admit depending on the function triplets (K, D, F), i.e., to solve the so-called group classification problem, which was formulated and solved for a class of nonlinear heat equations in the pioneering work by Ovsiannikov in 1959 [20] and now is the core stone of modern group analysis [21,22]. This problem for the second-order wave equation was probably first solved by Barone et al in [23] and subsequently was extended to other general forms by many authors in the last two decades [2,[24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43], but were all limited to second-order cases.…”
