“…The most important problem in real-world phenomena is computing exact solutions of nonlinear PDEs. The homogeneous balance method [ 1 ], the Darboux transform method [ 2 , 3 ], the first integral method [ 4 , 5 ], the tanh function method [ 6 ], the modified simple equation method [ 7 , 8 ], the method of the auxiliary equation [ 9 , 10 ], the ( G ′/ G )-expansion method [ 11 , 12 ], the F-expansion method [ 13 , 14 ], Jacobi elliptic function method [ 15 , 16 ], and Lie symmetry method [ 17 – 19 ] are some of the important methods available to compute exact solutions of nonlinear PDEs. Although there is no universal strategy for solving nonlinear PDEs, Lie symmetry analysis is one of the most effective and reliable techniques for discovering new exact solutions to nonlinear PDEs arising in applied mathematics and physics.…”
