New classes of symmetries for partial differential equations

Source abstract
New classes of symmetries for partial differential equations are introduced. By writing a given partial differential equation S in a conserved form, a related system T with potentials as additional dependent variables is obtained. The Lie group of point transformations admitted by T induces a symmetry group of S. New symmetries may be obtained for S that are neither point nor Lie–Bäcklund symmetries. They are determined by a completely algorithmic procedure. Significant new symmetries are found for the wave equation with a variable wave speed and the nonlinear diffusion equation.
