Invariant Solutions and Conservation Laws of the Time-Fractional Telegraph Equation

Abstract

In this study, the Lie symmetry analysis is given for the time-fractional telegraph equation with the Riemann–Liouville derivative. This equation is useable to describe the physical processes of models possessing memory. By applying classical and nonclassical Lie symmetry analysis for the telegraph equation with $\alpha ,\beta$ time-fractional derivatives and some technical computations, new infinitesimal generators are obtained. The actual methods give some classical symmetries while the nonclassical approach will bring back other symmetries to these equations. The similarity reduction and conservation laws to the fractional telegraph equation are found.
