Lie Systems: Theory, Generalisations, and Applications
by J.F. Carinena, J. de Lucas
Publisher: arXiv 2011
Number of pages: 163
Description:
Lie systems form a class of systems of first-order ordinary differential equations whose general solutions can be described in terms of certain finite families of particular solutions and a set of constants, by means of a particular type of mapping: the so-called superposition rule.
