“…Searching for solutions to partial differential equations (PDEs), which arise from physics, chemistry, economics and other fields, is one of the most fundamental and significant areas. A wealth of solving methods have been developed, such as the Lie symmetry analysis [5,8,11,15], the homogeneous balance method [13,18], Hirota's bilinear method [10], the Painlev's analysis method [6]. The Lie symmetry analysis is one of the most effective tools for solving partial differential equations and it was firstly traced back to the famous Norwegian mathematician Sophus Lie [12], who was influenced and inspired by the Galois theory founded in the early 18th century.…”
