Lie symmetries, exact solutions and conservation laws of time fractional coupled (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equations.

In this paper, Lie symmetry analysis method is applied to time fractional coupled (2 + 1)-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equations. We obtain all the Lie symmetries and reduce the (2 + 1)-dimensional fractional partial differential equations with Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative to (1 + 1)-dimensional counterparts with Erdélyi-Kober fractional derivative. Then we obtain the power series solutions and prove their convergence. In addition, the conservation laws for the governing equations are constructed by using the generalization of the Noether operators and the new conservation theorem. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
