Lie symmetries and conservation laws for a generalized (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation

This paper considers a generalized (2+1) dimensional nonlinear evolution equation depending on two nonzero arbitrary constants. We derive the Lie point symmetry generators and Lie symmetry groups. This symmetry analysis leads us the reductions equations, through one of which we obtain solutions. We also get the low-order conservation laws of the equation that have been obtained using the corresponding symmetries of the family. We will present a classification of conservation laws for this equation and we will apply Lie symmetry analysis to the equation in order to obtain exact solutions.
