In this paper we introduce an exponential map of the algebra of germs of vector fields into the group of germs of diffeomorphisms at zero. It is shown that this mapping is not a bijection. A brief review of the key results of the analytic iteration problem is given.
We consider higher symmetries and operator symmetries of linear partial differential equations. The higher symmetries form a Lie algebra, and operator ones form an associative algebra. The relationship between these symmetries is established. We show that symmetries of linear equations sometimes generate symmetries of nonlinear ones. New symmetries of two-dimensional stationary equations of gas dynamics are found.
