Dixon resultant is a basic elimination method which has been used widely in the high technology fields of automatic control, robotics, etc. But how to remove extraneous factors in Dixon resultants has been a very diffcult problem. In this paper, we discover some extraneous factors by expressing the Dixon resultant in a linear combination of original polynomial system. Furthermore, it has been proved that the factors mentioned above include three parts which come from Dixon derived polynomials, Dixon matrix and the resulting resultant expression by substituting Dixon derived polynomials respectively.
By means of the classical symmetry method,a hyperbolic Monge-Ampère equation is investigated.The symmetry group is studied and its corresponding group invariant solutions are constructed.Based on the associated vector of the obtained symmetry,the authors construct the group-invariant optimal system of the hyperbolic Monge-Ampère equation,from which two interesting classes of solutions to the hyperbolic Monge-Ampère equation are obtained successfully.
