computing conservation laws
Hello, The following problem concerns the computation of all conservation laws of the system df(m,t) = -df(m,x)*u-b*m*df(u,x) df(u,x,2) = u-m for the 2 functions m(x,t), u(x,t) with a second order characteristic function, for any b, i.e. all such conservation laws for arbitrary b but also for special b shall be found. This complicates the problem as it becomes non-linear. This boils down to an overdetermined system of 148 equations for the 2 functions q_1(u12, u11, m22, u2, u1, m2, u, m, x, t) q_2(u12, u11, m22, u2, u1, m2, u, m, x, t) of the 10 variables u12, u11, m22, u2, u1, m2, u, m, x, t and the unknown constant b. The program CRACK can solve many cases and find a number of solutions, some for specific values of b (b=1, b=2, b=3,..) and also for general b but was not able to automatically solve all cases. The equations are here .Thanks to Thomas Wolf (twolf@brocku.ca).
