Short talk – Get to the point! Lie Pseudogroup = “sub-pseudogroup of the diffeomorphisms of a manifold that can be written as solutions of an involutive PDE/EDS, by Cartan–K¨ ahler.” A.Smith (Fordham) EDS 2013-12-09 2 / 13
Short talk – Get to the point! Lie Pseudogroup = “sub-pseudogroup of the diffeomorphisms of a manifold that can be written as solutions of an involutive PDE/EDS, by Cartan–K¨ ahler.” The traditional representation theory of Lie groups begins with the question “how hard is it to integrate the infinitesimal structure of the Lie algebra into the local structure of the Lie group?” A.Smith (Fordham) EDS 2013-12-09 2 / 13

Therefore, examination of regularity and micro-local analysis (“how difficult is integration?”) of involutive PDE/EDS should help build our knowledge Lie pseudogroups.

Moreover, those multiplicities in the charac- teristic variety can be accessed via the incidence correspondence given by the rank-one variety of the tableau. For involutive systems with higher Cartan int, submanifolds secant to the rank-one cone give hydrodynamic reductions, and the secant system indicates hydrodynamic integrability in local coordinates.
