“…The resulting theory is quite elegant since all the useful properties of exact Lie symmetries can be adapted in the approximate sense: reduction of order of ordinary differential equations, approximately invariant solutions, approximate conservation laws, etc. Since its introduction, this approach has been applied to many physical models [29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39]. Nevertheless, the expanded generator is not consistent with the principles of perturbation analysis [40] because the dependent variables are not expanded.…”
