| Abstract: | Conditional Lie‐Bäcklund symmetry (CLBS) method is developed to study system of evolution equations. It is shown that reducibility of a system of evolution equations to a system of ordinary differential equations can be fully characterized by the CLBS of the considered system. As an application of the approach, a class of two‐component nonlinear diffusion equations is studied. The governing system and the admitted CLBS can be identified. As a consequence, exact solutions defined on the polynomial, exponential, trigonometric, and mixed invariant subspaces are constructed due to the corresponding symmetry reductions. |
