We apply the group foliation method to find noninvariant solutions of the c
omplex Monge-Ampere equation (CMA(2)). We use the infinite symmetry subgrou
p of the CMA(2) to foliate the solution space into orbits of solutions with
respect to this group and correspondingly split the CMA(2) into an automor
phic system and a resolvent system. We propose a new approach to group foli
ation based on the commutator algebra of operators of invariant differentia
tion. This algebra together with Jacobi identities provides the commutator
representation of the resolvent system. For solving the resolvent system, w
e propose symmetry reduction, which allows deriving reduced resolving equat
ions.
