Abstract:

Various fluid mechanical systems enjoy a hidden, higher-dimensional dynamical Poincaré symmetry, which arises owing to their descent from a Nambu–Goto action. Also, for the same reason, there are equivalence transformations between different models. These interconnections, summarized by the diagram below, are discussed in our paper.
