This study introduces a novel (1+1)-dimensional generalised coupled modified Korteweg-de Vries-type system, deriving its exact solutions and conservation laws using Lie group analysis. The research provides new insights into this non-decouplable system with higher generalised symmetries.
Area of Science:
- Mathematical Physics
- Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations
- Integrable Systems
Background:
- The (1+1)-dimensional generalised coupled modified Korteweg-de Vries-type system is investigated for the first time.
- This system is notable for being non-decouplable and possessing higher generalised symmetries.
Purpose of the Study:
- To apply Lie group analysis to a novel (1+1)-dimensional generalised coupled modified Korteweg-de Vries-type system.
- To derive closed-form solutions and conservation laws for this system.
Main Methods:
- Lie group analysis was employed to obtain the optimal system of one-dimensional subalgebras.
- Symmetry reductions and group invariant solutions were constructed.
- The multiplier method and a homotopy integral formula were used to derive conserved quantities due to the absence of a variational principle.
Main Results:
- Group invariant solutions and power series solutions were successfully constructed.
- Three conserved vectors for the system were derived.
Conclusions:
- The study successfully analyzed a new (1+1)-dimensional generalised coupled modified Korteweg-de Vries-type system.
- Exact solutions and conservation laws were established for the first time for this system.
