AbstractThe optimal investment-consumption problem under the constant elasticity of variance (CEV) model is investigated from the perspective of Lie group analysis. The Lie symmetry group of the evolution partial differential equation describing the CEV model is derived. The Lie point symmetries are then used to obtain an exact solution of the governing model satisfying a standard terminal condition. Finally, we construct conservation laws of the underlying equation using the general theorem on conservation laws.

The migration of melt through the mantle of the Earth is governed by a third-order nonlinear partial differential equation for the voidage or volume fraction of melt. The partial differential equation depends on the permeability of the medium which is assumed to be a function of the voidage. It is shown that the partial differential equation admits, as well as translations in time and space, other Lie point symmetries provided the permeability is either a power law or an exponential law of the voidage or is a constant. A rarefactive solitary wave solution of the partial differential equation is derived in the form of a quadrature for the exponential law for the permeability.

AbstractIn this study, an incompressible time-dependent flow of a fourth-grade fluid in a porous half space is investigated. The flow is generated due to the motion of the flat rigid plate in its own plane with an impulsive velocity. The partial differential equation governing the motion is reduced to ordinary differential equations by means of the Lie group theoretic analysis. A complete group analysis is performed for the governing nonlinear partial differential equation to deduce all possible Lie point symmetries. One-dimensional optimal systems of subalgebras are also obtained, which give all possibilities for classifying meaningful solutions in using the Lie group analysis. The conditional symmetry approach is also utilised to solve the governing model. Various new classes of group-invariant solutions are developed for the model problem. Travelling wave solutions, steady-state solution, and conditional symmetry solutions are obtained as closed-form exponential functions. The influence of pertinent parameters on the fluid motion is graphically underlined and discussed.

In this paper, we study a generalization of the well-known Kelvin-Voigt viscoelasticity equation describing the mechanical behaviour of viscoelasticity. We perform a Lie symmetry analysis. Hence, we obtain the Lie point symmetries of the equation, allowing us to transform the partial differential equation into an ordinary differential equation by using the symmetry reductions. Furthermore, we determine the conservation laws of this equation by applying the multiplier method.
