Within the framework of inverse Lie problems we give some non­trivial examples of Lie­ remarkable equations, i.e., classes of partial differential equations that are in one­to­one correspondence with their Lie point symmetries. In particular, we prove that the second order Monge-Ampere equation in two independent variables is Lie­ remarkable. The same property is shared by some classes of second order Monge-Ampere equations involving more than two independent variables, as well as by some classes of higher order Monge-Ampere equations in two independent variables.

Abstract

Within the framework of inverse Lie problems we give some non­trivial examples of Lie­ remarkable equations, i.e., classes of partial differential equations that are in one­to­one correspondence with their Lie point symmetries. In particular, we prove that the second order Monge-Ampere equation in two independent variables is Lie­ remarkable. The same property is shared by some classes of second order Monge-Ampere equations involving more than two independent variables, as well as by some classes of higher order Monge-Ampere equations in two independent variables. In closing, also the minimal surface equation in R^3 is considered.
