On the conservation laws, Lie symmetry analysis and power series solutions of a class of third-order polynomial evolution equations

Abstract

AbstractIn the present paper, we consider a special class of third-order polynomial evolutionary equations. These equations, via Lie theory admit the same one-parameter point transformations which leave the equations invariant. Reductions with these invariant functions lead to highly nonlinear third-order ordinary differential equations. We use a power series to establish interesting solutions to the reduced equations, whereby recurrence relations occur and convergence of the series may be tested. Finally, the conserved vectors of the class are constructed.
