✦ Synopsis

Autonomous systems of ordinary differential equations can be rewritten as systems of first order ordinary differential equations and one of the dependent variables chosen as a new independent variable. Some of the variables are eliminated to give a mixed system of first and second order equations for which the determination of point symmetries can be automated without having to make an Ansatz on the detailed structure of the symmetry. Because the coefficient function for the original independent variable appears only as its derivative in the reduced system, symmetries which are nonlocal in this variable become local symmetries of the reduced system and can be computed algorithmically.

## 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.

In this paper, Lanczos and Arnoldi reduction methods as the special cases of the generalized Hessenberg method are brie¯y reviewed. Attention is paid to the eect of symmetry of matrices on the behaviour of the reduction schemes, such as serious numerical breakdown. Based on the summation decompositi
