Description: "Symmetry Analysis of Differential Equations with Mathematica provides a comprehensive introduction to the application of symmetry analysis to differential equations. The application of symmetries is useful in finding exact solutions and in verifying and developing numerical schemes. Symmetries also provide conservation laws for differential equations.

These applications have emerged from discoveries by the mathematician Sophus Lie about combining group theory and analysis related to differential equation behavior. The applications are significant to practitioners in physics, chemistry, mathematics, and engineering."--BOOK JACKET.
