System-theoretic Analysis of Nonlinear Infinite-dimensional Systems with Generalized Symmetries
arXiv:1905.10933
Abstract
Symmetry groups allow to transform solutions of differential equations continuously into other solutions. This property can be used for the observability analysis of infinite-dimensional systems with input and output. In this contribution, we extend an existing approach, which is based on vertical classical symmetries, to non-vertical classical symmetries and generalized symmetries. This makes the approach applicable to a much larger class of systems, since many nonlinear systems do not possess any vertical classical symmetries.
