Symmetries of differential-difference dynamical systems in a two-dimensional lattice

Classification of differential-difference equation of the form $\ddot{u}_{nm}=F_{nm}\big(t, \{u_{pq}\}|_{(p,q)\in Γ}\big)$ are considered according to their Lie point symmetry groups. The set $Γ$ represents the point $(n,m)$ and its six nearest neighbors in a two-dimensional triangular lattice. It is shown that the symmetry group can be at most 12-dimensional for abelian symmetry algebras and 13-dimensional for nonsolvable symmetry algebras.
