DChange

change coordinates in a LAVF object

 

Calling Sequence

Parameters

Description

Examples

Compatibility

Calling Sequence

DChange( tr, obj, vf, options )

dchange( tr, obj, vf, options )

Parameters

tr

-

set of equations corresponding to the transformation from the old variables on the left-hand side of the equations to the new variables on the right-hand side

obj

-

a LAVF object

vf

-

a VectorField object

options

-

optional arguments that will be passed down to PDEtools[dchange] command

Description

• 

The DChange method performs change of variables tr in the LAVF object obj.

• 

The method returns a new LAVF object written with respect to independent variables and the dependent variables specified in vf

• 

The vf argument is required.  Other options are as for PDEtools:-dchange, and are ultimately passed through to it.

• 

The name dchange is provided as an alias.

• 

This method is associated with the LAVF object. For more detail see Overview of the LAVF object.

Examples

> 

with⁡LieAlgebrasOfVectorFields:

Build a LAVF for the sl[2] action on the line...

> 

X≔VectorField⁡ξ⁡x,x

X≔ξ⁡x⁢ⅆⅆx

(1)
> 

Sys≔LHPDE⁡diff⁡ξ⁡x,x,x,x=0,indep=x,dep=ξ

Sys≔ⅆ3ⅆx3ξ⁡x=0,indep=x,dep=ξ⁡x

(2)
> 

L≔LAVF⁡X,Sys

L≔ξ⁡x⁢ⅆⅆx&whereⅆ3ⅆx3ξ⁡x=0

(3)

Now set up another vector field with a change of variables...

> 

Y≔VectorField⁡η⁡y,y

Y≔η⁡y⁢ⅆⅆy

(4)
> 

DChange⁡x=y,L,Y

η⁡y⁢ⅆⅆy&whereⅆ3ⅆy3η⁡y=0

(5)

Compatibility

• 

The DChange command was introduced in Maple 2020.

•
