Abstract

We present the explicit formulae, describing the structure of symmetries and formal symmetries of any scalar (1+1)-dimensional evolution equation. Using these results, the formulae for the leading terms of commutators of two symmetries and two formal symmetries are found. The generalization of these results to the case of system of evolution equations is also discussed.
