The concepts of symmetry and its breakdown are investigated in two different terms according to whether the resulting asymmetry is universal or only obtained for a special configuration: we shall illustrate this by considering in the first…
We give a geometrical interpretation of the notion of $\mu$-prolongations of vector fields and of the related concept of $\mu$-symmetry for partial differential equations (extending to PDEs the notion of $\lambda$-symmetry for ODEs). We…
