Several examples of gaps (lacunes) between dimensions of maximal and submaximal symmetric models are considered, which include investigation of number of independent linear and quadratic integrals of metrics and counting the symmetries of geometric structures and differential equations. A general result clarifying this effect in the case when the structure is associated to a vector distribution, is proposed.
This paper deals with the classification of hyperbolic Monge-Ampère equations on a two-dimensional manifold. We solve the local equivalence problem with respect to the contact transformation group assuming that the equation is of general position nondegenerate type. As an application we formulate a new method of finding symmetries. This together with previous author's results allows to state the solution of the classical S. Lie equivalence problem for the Monge-Ampère equations.
In this paper the Nijenhuis tensor characteristic distributions on a non-integrable four-dimensional almost complex manifold is investigated for integrability, singularities and equivalence.
