Example 1.
Search through the ["Winternitz", 1] library of Lie algebras and find all the Lie algebras of dimension 4 which are solvable but not nilpotent. First we use the command Query to construct the necessary procedures.
Now narrow the search to find those Lie algebras with a 2 dimensional derived algebra.
Thus we conclude that there are just two 4 dimensional solvable and not nilpotent Lie algebras with 2 dimensional derived algebras in the Winternitz table. We can use the Browse command to view these Lie algebras.
Example 2.
Search through the first 25 vector field systems in the Gonzalez-Lopez table to see if there is a 3 dimensional semisimple vector field system whose prolongation to the 1-jet is not transitive. (A 3 dimensional vector field system will be non-transitive on the 1-jet if there is a non-trivial isotropy subalgebra.) These are precisely the actions which will admit a first order differential invariant.
