Based on the generalized symmetry group method presented by Lou and Ma [Lou and Ma, Non-Lie symmetry groups of (2 + 1)-dimensional nonlinear systems obtained from a simple direct method, J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 38 (2005) L129], firstly, both the Lie point groups and the full symmetry group of the nonisospectral BKP equation are obtained, at the same time, a relationship is constructed between th...
