Vf. Kovalev et Dv. Shirkov, RENORMALIZATION-GROUP IN MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS AND SOME PROBLEMS OF LASER OPTICS, Journal of nonlinear optical physics and materials, 6(4), 1997, pp. 443-454
An original approach to constructing special type symmetries for bound
ary value problems, RENORMGROUP SYMMETRIES, is reviewed here. It is ap
plied to a system of geometric optics equations. New solutions to the
laser beam self-focusing problem are presented.
