Abstract: |
In this paper, we intend to study the symmetry properties and conservation laws of a time fractional fifth-order Sawada-Kotera (S-K) equation with Riemann-Liouville derivative. Applying the well-known Lie symmetry method, we analysis the symmetry properties of the equation. Based on this, we find that the S-K equation can be reduced to a fractional ordinary differential equation with Erdelyi-Kober derivative by the similarity variable and transformation. Furthermore, we construct some conservation laws for the S-K equation using the idea in the Ibragimov theorem on conservation laws and the fractional generalization of the Noether operators. |
