In our work, a higher-dimensional shallow water wave equation, which can be reduced to the potential KdV equation, is discussed. By using the Lie symmetry analysis, all of the geometric vector fields of the equation are obtained; the symmetry reductions are also presented. Some new nonlinear wave solutions, involving differentiable arbitrary functions, expressed by Jacobi elliptic function, Weierstrass elliptic function, hyperbolic function, and trigonometric function are obtained. Our work extends pioneer results.
