In the present paper the classical point symmetry analysis is extended from partial differential to functional differential equations with functional derivatives. In order to perform the group analysis and deal with the functional…
In this paper we review the extent to which one can use classical distribution theory in describing solutions of Einstein's equations. We show that there are a number of physically interesting cases which cannot be treated using…
Methods of Lie group analysis of differential equations are extended to weak solutions of (linear and nonlinear) PDEs, where the term ``weak solution'' comprises the following settings: (a) Distributional solutions. (b) Solutions in…
We study generalized group actions on differentiable manifolds in the Colombeau framework, extending previous work on flows of generalized vector fields and symmetry group analysis of generalized solutions. As an application, we analyze…
We offer an axiomatic definition of a differential algebra of generalized functions over an algebraically closed non-Archimedean field. This algebra is of {\em Colombeau type} in the sense that it contains a copy of the space of Schwartz…
We apply the Lie-group formalism and the nonclassical method due to Bluman and Cole to deduce symmetries of the generalized Boussinesq equation, which has the classical Boussinesq equation as an special case. We study the class of functions…
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,…
This paper lays the foundations for a nonlinear theory of differential geometry that is developed in a subsequent paper which is based on Colombeau algebras of tensor distributions on manifolds. We adopt a new approach and construct a…
A differential algebra of nonlinear generalized functions is presented as a tool for a wide range of nonsmooth nonlinear problems. The power of the differential algebra is used to do mathematical calculations or proofs; then the final…
We give an overview of the development of algebras of generalized functions in the sense of Colombeau and recent advances concerning diffeomorphism invariant global algebras of generalized functions and tensor fields. We furthermore provide…
We present a differential algebra of generalized functions over a field of generalized scalars by means of several axioms in terms of general algebra and topology. Our differential algebra is of Colombeau type in the sense that it contains…
This paper is a tutorial that demonstrates various methods from the Colombeau theory of generalized functions in the context of semilinear wave equations. The Colombeau generalized functions constitute differential algebras that contain the…
Modelling of singularities given by discontinuous functions or distributions by means of generalized functions has proved useful in many problems posed by physical phenomena. We introduce in a systematic way generalized functions of…
We develop the diffeomorphism invariant Colombeau-type algebra of nonlinear generalized functions in a modern and compact way. Using a unifying formalism for the local setting and on manifolds, the construction becomes simpler and more…

Fundamentals on Lie group methods and applications to differential equations are surveyed. Many examples are included to elucidate their extensive applicability for analytically solving both ordinary and partial differential equations.
We study invariance properties of Colombeau generalized functions under actions of smooth Lie transformation groups. Several characterization results analogous to the smooth setting are derived and applications to generalized rotational…
It is shown for a simple ODE that it has many symmetry groups beyond its usual Lie group symmetries, when its generalized solutions are considered within the nowhere dense differential algebra of generalized functions.
A full Lie point symmetry analysis of rational difference equations is performed. Non-trivial symmetries are derived and exact solutions using these symmetries are obtained.
This paper is devoted to strictly hyperbolic systems and equations with non-smooth coefficients. Below a certain level of smoothness, distributional solutions may fail to exist. We construct generalised solutions in the Colombeau algebra of…
