Abstract

The inheritance of symmetries of partial differential equations occurs in a different manner from that of ordinary differential equations. In particular, the Lie algebra of the symmetries of a partial differential equation is not sufficient to predict the symmetries that will be inherited by a resulting reduced partial (or ordinary) differential equation. We show how this suggests a possible source of Type I hidden symmetries of partial differential equations as well as provide interesting consequences for solutions of partial differential equations.
