Symmetry analysis of cylindrical Helmholtz equation

arXiv:0908.3618

Abstract

In this paper, we present the point symmetry group of three-dimensional homogeneous Helmholtz equation, when we consider the cylindrical coordinate system. In continuation, we present a complete set of functionally independent invariants of the equation along with the form of the general solution provided by these invariants. Finally, we find an optimal system of one-dimensional Lie subgroups of the full symmetry group.
