Symmetries of a class of nonlinear third-order partial differential equations

Abstract: In this paper we study symmetry reductions of a class of nonlinear third order partial differential equationswhere ǫ, κ, α and β are arbitrary constants. Three special cases of equation (1) have appeared in the literature, up to some rescalings. In each case the equation has admitted unusual travelling wave solutions: the Fornberg-Whitham equation, for the parameters ǫ = 1, α = −1, β = 3 and κ = 1 2 , admits a wave of greatest height, as a peaked limiting form of the travelling wave solution; the Rosenau-Hyman… Show more

“…In [24] it was shown that the CH equation has also the same property, as well as in [4] it was proved that the Novikov equation is strictly self-adjoint. In particular, with respect to (3) and (4), the obtained results in [6], [24] and [4] shows some common facts:…”
