On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of Sophus Lie, an International Work shop "Modern Group Analysis: advanced analytical and computational methods in mathematical physics" has been organized in Acireale (Catania, Sicily, October 27 31, 1992). The Workshop was aimed to enlighten the present state ofthis rapidly expanding branch of applied mathematics. Main topics of the Conference were: classical Lie groups applied for constructing invariant solutions and conservation laws; conditional (partial) symmetries; Backlund transformations; approximate symmetries; group analysis of...
