Description
Summary:In this paper we study the fourth-order three-dimensional generalized potential Yu-Toda-Sasa-Fukuyama (gpYTSF) equation by first computing its Lie point symmetries and then performing symmetry reductions. The resulting ordinary differential equations are then solved using direct integration, and exact solutions of gpYTSF equation are obtained. The obtained group invariant solutions include the solution in terms of incomplete elliptic integral. Furthermore, conservation laws for the gpYTSF equation are derived using both the multiplier and Noether’s methods. The multiplier method provides eight conservation laws, while the Noether’s theorem supplies seven conservation laws. These conservation laws include the conservation of energy and mass.
