We suggest a method for integrating sub-families of a family of nonlinear {\sc Schr\"odinger} equations proposed by {\sc H.-D.~Doebner} and {\sc G.A.~Goldin} in the 1+1 dimensional case which have exceptional {\sc Lie} symmetries. Since the…

We examine a recently-proposed family of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations [J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 27:1771(1994)] with respect to a group of transformations that linearize a subfamily of them. We investigate the structure of the whole…

Diffeomorphisms and an internal symmetry (e.g., local Lorentz invariance) are typically regarded as the symmetries of any geometrical gravity theory, including general relativity. In the first-order formalism, diffeomorphisms can be thought…
