SAMS Subject Classification Number: 3, 22

In this talk, we study the two-dimensional Yu-Toda-Sasa-Fukuyama equation [1] using Lie symmetry analysis [2]. Firstly, Lie point symmetries are obtained and used to perform symmetry reductions. As a result of symmetry reductions, equation is reduced to several nonlinear ordinary differential equations, which we solve with the help of different techniques. Moreover, the derived solutions are illustrated graphically for some parametric values. Furthermore, the conserved vectors are computed using the classical Noether’s theorem [3].
