## Abstract After the initial seminal works of Sophus Lie on ordinary differential equations, several important results on point symmetry group analysis of ordinary differential equations have been obtained. In this review, we present the salient features of point symmetry group classification of s

✦ Synopsis
The concept of the complete symmetry group of a differential equation introduced by J. Krause (1994, J. Math. Phys. 35, 5734-5748) is extended to integrals of such equations. This paper is devoted to some aspects characterising complete symmetry groups. The algebras of the symmetries of both differential equations and integrals are studied in the context of equations for which the elements are represented by point or contact symmetries so that there is no ambiguity about the group. Both algebras and groups are found to be nonunique.

## Abstract The complete symmetry group of a 1 + 1 evolution equation has been demonstrated to be represented by the six‐dimensional Lie algebra of point symmetries __sl__(2, __R__) ⊕~__s__~__W__, where __W__ is the three‐dimensional Heisenberg–Weyl algebra. We construct a complete symmetry group o
