Conservation laws of KdV equation with time dependent coefficients

We determine conservation laws of the generalized KdV equation of time dependent variable coefficients of the linear damping and dispersion. The underlying equation is not derivable from a variational principle and hence one cannot use Noether’s theorem here to construct conservation laws as there is no Lagrangian. However, we show that by utilizing the new conservation theorem and the partial Lagrangian approach one can construct a number of local and nonlocal conservation laws for the underlying equation.     

Symmetries and nonlocal conservation laws of the general magma equation

In this paper the general magma equation modelling a melt flow in the Earth’s mantle is discussed. Applying the new theorem on nonlocal conservation laws [Ibragimov NH. A new conservation theorem. J Math Anal Appl 2007;333(1):311–28] and using the symmetries of the model equation nonlocal conservation laws are computed. In accordance with Ibragimov [Ibragimov NH. Quasi-self-adjoint differential equations. Preprint in Archives of ALGA, vol. 4, BTH, Karlskrona, Sweden: Alga Publications; 2007. p. 55–60, ISSN: 1652-4934] it is shown that the general magma equation is quasi-self-adjoint for arbitrary m and n and self-adjoint for n = ?m. These important properties are used for deriving local conservation laws.     

A fifth order semidiscrete mKdV equation

In this paper,aiming to get more insight on the relation between the higher order semidiscrete mKdV equations and higher order mKdV equations,we construct a fifth order semidiscrete mKdV equation from the three known semidiscrete mKdV fluxes.We not only give its Lax pairs,Darboux transformation,explicit solutions and infinitely many conservation laws,but also show that their continuous limits yield the corresponding results for the fifth order mKdV equation.We thus conclude that the fifth order discrete mKdV equation is extremely an useful discrete scheme for the fifth order mKdV equation.     

Conservation laws for a class of soil water equations

In this paper, we consider a class of nonlinear partial differential equations which model soil water infiltration, redistribution and extraction in a bedded soil profile irrigated by a line source drip irrigation system. By using the nonlocal conservation theorem method and the partial Lagrangian approach, conservation laws are presented. It is observed that both approaches lead to the nontrivial and infinite conservation laws.     

Conservation laws for one-layer shallow water wave systems

The problem of correspondence between symmetries and conservation laws for one-layer shallow water wave systems in the plane flow, axisymmetric flow and dispersive waves is investigated from the composite variational principle of view in the development of the study [N.H. Ibragimov, A new conservation theorem, Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 333(1) (2007) 311–328]. This method is devoted to construction of conservation laws of non-Lagrangian systems. Composite principle means that in addition to original variables of a given system, one should introduce a set of adjoint variables in order to obtain a system of Euler–Lagrange equations for some variational functional. After studying Lie point and Lie–Bäcklund symmetries, we obtain new local and nonlocal conservation laws. Nonlocal conservation laws comprise nonlocal variables defined by the adjoint equations to shallow water wave systems. In particular, we obtain infinite local conservation laws and potential symmetries for the plane flow case.     

Conservation laws for a modified lubrication equation

In this work we study the conservation laws of a modified lubrication equation, which describes the dynamics of the interfacial motion in phase transition. We show that the equation is nonlinear self-adjoint and has an exact Lagrangian with an auxiliary function. As a result, by a general theorem on conservation laws proved by Nail Ibragimov recently and Noether’s theorem, some new conservation laws for the equation are obtained. Our results show that the non-locally defined conservation laws generated by Noether’s theorem are equivalent to the local ones given by Ibragimov’s theorem.     

On the nonlinear self-adjointness of the Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation

A new general theorem, which does not require the existence of Lagrangians, allows to compute conservation laws for an arbitrary differential equation. This theorem is based on the concept of self-adjoint equations for nonlinear equations. In this paper we show that the Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation is self-adjoint and nonlinearly self-adjoint. This property is used to compute conservation laws corresponding to the symmetries of the equation. In particular the property of the Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation to be self-adjoint and nonlinearly self-adjoint allows us to get more conservation laws.     

On the exact solutions,lie symmetry analysis,and conservation laws of Schamel–Korteweg–de Vries equation

In this work, we study the integrability aspects of the Schamel–Korteweg–de Vries equation that play an important role in studying the effect of electron trapping on the nonlinear interaction of ion‐acoustic waves by including a quasi‐potential. Lie symmetry analysis together with the simplest equation method and Kudryashov method is used to obtain exact traveling wave solutions for this equation. In addition, conservation laws are constructed using two different techniques, namely, the multiplier method and the new conservation theorem. Using the conservation laws and symmetries of the underlying equation, double reduction and exact solution were also constructed. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Symmetry analysis, conservation laws of a time fractional fifth-order Sawada-Kotera equation

In this paper, we intend to study the symmetry properties and conservation laws of a time fractional fifth-order Sawada-Kotera (S-K) equation with Riemann-Liouville derivative. Applying the well-known Lie symmetry method, we analysis the symmetry properties of the equation. Based on this, we find that the S-K equation can be reduced to a fractional ordinary differential equation with Erdelyi-Kober derivative by the similarity variable and transformation. Furthermore, we construct some conservation laws for the S-K equation using the idea in the Ibragimov theorem on conservation laws and the fractional generalization of the Noether operators.

Besides, exact solutions are obtained by the aid of the symmetries associated with conservation laws. Double reduction is used to obtain these exact solution of Calogero–Bogoyavlenskii–Schiff equation. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Nonlinear self-adjointness through differential substitutions

It is known (Ibragimov, 2011; Galiakberova and Ibragimov, 2013) [14,18] that the property of nonlinear self-adjointness allows to associate conservation laws of the equations under study, with their symmetries. In this paper we show that, even when the equation is nonlinearly self-adjoint with a non differential substitution, finding the explicit form of the differential substitution can provide new conservation laws associated to its symmetries. By using the general theorem on conservation laws (Ibragimov, 2007) [11] and the property of nonlinear self-adjointness we find some new conservation laws for the modified Harry-Dym equation. By using a differential substitution we construct a conservation law for the Harry-Dym equation, which has not been derived before using Ibragimov method.     

Group properties and conservation laws for nonlocal shallow water wave equation

Symmetry groups, symmetry reductions, optimal system, conservation laws and invariant solutions of the shallow water wave equation with nonlocal term are studied. First, Lie symmetries based on the invariance criterion for nonlocal equations and the solution approach for nonlocal determining equations are found and then the reduced equations and optimal system are obtained. Finally, new conservation laws are generated and some similarity solutions for symmetry reduction forms are discussed.

New classes of nonlinearly self-adjoint evolution equations of third- and fifth-order

In a recent communication Ibragimov introduced the concept of nonlinearly self-adjoint differential equation [Ibragimov NH. Nonlinear self-adjointness and conservation laws. J Phys A Math Theor 2011;44:432002 (8pp.)]. In this paper a nonlinear self-adjoint classification of a general class of fifth-order evolution equation with time dependent coefficients is presented. As a result five subclasses of nonlinearly self-adjoint equations of fifth-order and four subclasses of nonlinearly self-adjoint equations of third-order are obtained. From the Ibragimov’s theorem on conservation laws [Ibragimov NH. A new conservation theorem. J Math Anal Appl 2007;333:311–28] conservation laws for some of these equations are established.

Self-adjointness and conservation laws for Kadomtsev–Petviashvili–Burgers equation

In this work we study the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili–Burgers equation, which is a natural model for the propagation of the two-dimensional damped waves. We show that the equation is nonlinear self-adjoint and it will become strict self-adjoint or weak self-adjoint in some equivalent form. By using Ibragimov’s theorem on conservation laws we find some conservation laws for this equation.     

Symmetries,Conservation Laws,and Noether's Theorem for Differential‐Difference Equations

This paper mainly contributes to the extension of Noether's theorem to differential‐difference equations. For this purpose, we first investigate the prolongation formula for continuous symmetries, which makes a characteristic representation possible. The relations of symmetries, conservation laws, and the Fréchet derivative are also investigated. For nonvariational equations, because Noether's theorem is now available, the self‐adjointness method is adapted to the computation of conservation laws for differential‐difference equations. Several differential‐difference equations are investigated as illustrative examples, including the Toda lattice and semidiscretizations of the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation. In particular, the Volterra equation is taken as a running example.
