Group Classification and Conservation Laws for a two-dimensional Generalized Kuramoto-Sivashinsky Equation

Abstract

The two-dimensional anisotropic Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation is a forth-order nonlinear evolution equation in two spatial dimensions that arises in sputter erosion and epitaxial growth on vicinal surfaces. A generalization of this equation is proposed and studied via group analysis methods. The complete group classification of this generalized Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation is carried out, it is classified according to the property of the self-adjointness and the corresponding conservation laws are established.
