GetVectorField( obj)

GetDeterminingSystem( obj)

Parameters

obj

-

a LAVF object

Description

• 

The GetVectorField method returns the vector field for a LAVF object, as a VectorField object. The returned VectorField object then has access to various methods. See Overview of the VectorField object for more detail.

• 

The GetDeterminingSystem method returns the symmetry determining system for a LAVF object, as a LHPDE object. The returned LHPDE object then has access to various methods. See Overview of the LHPDE object for more detail.

• 

These methods are associated with the LAVF object. For more detail, see Overview of the LAVF object.

Typesetting:-Settingsuserep=true:

Typesetting:-Suppressξx,y,ηx,y:

Construct an indeterminate vector field and a determining system, then construct an LAVF object from them...

VVectorFieldξx,yDx+ηx,yDy,space=x,y

Vξⅆⅆx+ηⅆⅆy

(1)

E2LHPDEdiffξx,y,y,y=0,diffηx,y,x=diffξx,y,y,diffηx,y,y=0,diffξx,y,x=0,indep=x,y,dep=ξ,η

E2ξy,y=0,ηx=ξy,ηy=0,ξx=0,indep=x,y,dep=ξ,η

(2)

Lξⅆⅆx+ηⅆⅆy&whereξy,y=0,ξx=0,ηx=ξy,ηy=0

Now we can retrieve the basic properties of the LAVF L:

GetVectorFieldL

ξⅆⅆx+ηⅆⅆy

SGetDeterminingSystemL

Sξy,y=0,ξx=0,ηx=ξy,ηy=0,indep=x,y,dep=ξ,η

(5)

The determining system of L is indeed a LHPDE object, and has access to various methods...

GetSystemS

ξy,y=0,ξx=0,ηx=ξy,ηy=0

(7)

GetDependentsS

Compatibility

• 

The GetVectorField and GetDeterminingSystem commands were introduced in Maple 2020.
