Abstract

In this paper, we consider modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation. By using the nonlocal conservation theorem method and the partial Lagrangian approach, conservation laws for the mKdV equation are presented. It is observed that only nonlocal conservation theorem method lead to the nontrivial and infinite conservation laws. In addition, invariant solution is obtained by utilizing the relationship between conservation laws and Lie-point symmetries of the equation.
