| contents | We identify a class of left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metrics on Lie groups for which the Laplace-Beltrami equation reduces to a first-order PDE and admits exact solutions. The defining condition is the existence of a commutative ideal $\mathfrak{h}$ in the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ whose orthogonal complement satisfies $\mathfrak{h}^\perp\subseteq\mathfrak{h}$. Using the noncommutative integration method based on the orbit method and generalized Fourier transforms, we reduce the Laplace--Beltrami equation to a first-order linear PDE, which can then be integrated explicitly. The symmetry of the reduced equation gives rise, via the inverse transform, to nonlocal symmetry operators for the original equation. These operators are generically integro-differential, contrasting with the polynomial symmetries appearing in previously studied classes. The method is illustrated by two examples: the Heisenberg group $\mathrm{H}_3(\mathbb{R})$ with a Lorentzian metric and a four-dimensional non-unimodular group with a metric of signature $(2,2)$. In the latter, classical separation of variables is not directly applicable, yet the noncommutative approach yields explicit solutions and reveals the predicted nonlocal symmetry. |
