On the complete Lie point symmetries classification of the mixed quadratic-linear Li$\acute{\textbf{e}}$nard type equation $\ddot{x}+f(x)\dot{x}^2+g(x)\dot{x}+h(x)=0$

Abstract: In this paper we develop a systematic and self consistent procedure based on a set of compatibility conditions for identifying all maximal (eight parameter) and non-maximal (one and two parameter) symmetry groups associated with the mixed quadratic-linear Li$\acute{e}$nard type equation, $\ddot {x} + f(x){\dot {x}}^{2} + g(x)\dot{x}+h(x)= 0$, where $f(x),\,g(x)$ and $h(x)$ are arbitrary functions of $x$. With the help of this procedure we show that a symmetry function $b(t)$ is zero for non-maximal cases whereas it is not so for the maximal case. On the basis of this result the symmetry analysis gets divided into two cases, $(i)$ the maximal symmetry group $(b\neq0)$ and $(ii)$ non-maximal symmetry groups $(b=0)$. We then identify the most general form of the mixed-quadratic linear Li$\acute{e}$nard type equation in each of these cases. In the case of eight parameter symmetry group, the identified general equation becomes linearizable. We present a specific example of physical interest. In the case of non-maximal symmetry groups the identified equations are all integrable. The integrability of all the equations is proved either by providing the general solution or by constructing time independent Hamiltonians. We also analyse the underlying equivalence transformations.
