title: SYMMETRIES OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS AND OPERATORS IN GEOMETRY AND DYNAMICS.
reg no: ETF5281
project type: Estonian Science Foundation research grant
subject: 1.1. Mathematics
status: completed
institution: University of Tartu
head of project: Maido Rahula
duration: 01.01.2002 - 31.12.2003
description: ..
The goals of the project and the expectative results:
To analyse symmetries in connection with the study of equations of mathematical physics, dynamical systems and singularities of maps (catastrophes), using the concept developed in Tartu - the universal exponential law.
For this:
1. to bring the structures in the jet space into line with materials by Vinogradov, Lychagin, Olver, Ovsiannikov and Navi?kas,
2. to expand the possibilities of using Lie derivatives in the research of dynamical systems and then to study:
3. the action and the symmetries of Monge-Amp?re operators,
4. the transfer of dynamical systems by Veronese maps,
5. the operators connected with co-Riemannian geometry.
