An intrinsic version of the integrability theorem for the classical Backlund theorem is presented. It is characterized by a one-form which can be put in the form of a Riccati system. It is shown how this system can be linearized. Based on this, a procedure for generating an infinite number of conservation laws is given.

In the present paper we consider nonlinear multidimensional Cahn-Hilliard and Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equations that have many important applications in physics and chemistry, and a certain natural generalization of these equations. For an arbitrary number of spatial independent variables we present a complete list of cases when the generalized Cahn-Hilliard-Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation admits nontrivial local conservation laws of any order, and for each of those cases we give an explicit form of all the local conservation laws of all orders modulo trivial ones admitted by the equation under stu…
We characterize all cases when a certain natural generalization of the Infeld--Rowlands equation admits nontrivial local conservation laws of any order, and give explicit form of these conservation laws modulo trivial ones. Furthermore, we prove that the equation under study admits no nontrivial local Hamiltonian and symplectic structures and no nontrivial local Noether and inverse Noether operators; the method of establishing the said nonexistence results can be readily applied to many other PDEs.
We find noncommutative analogs for well-known polynomial evolution systems with higher conservation laws and symmetries. The integrability of obtained non-Abelian systems is justified by explicit zero curvature representations with spectral parameter.
We consider a new nonlocal formulation of the water-wave problem for a free surface with an irrotational flow based on the work of Ablowitz, Fokas, and Musslimani and presented in the recent work of Oliveras. The main focus of the short paper is to show how one can systematically derive Olver's eight conservation laws not only for an irrotational fluid, but also for constant vorticity (linear shear flow) without explicitly relying on the underlying Lie symmetries. This allows us to make draw new conclusions about conservation laws and posit the existence of additional, nonlocal, conservation l…
For systems of partial differential equations in three spatial dimensions, dynamical conservation laws holding on volumes, surfaces, and curves, as well as topological conservation laws holding on surfaces and curves, are studied in a unified framework. Both global and local formulations of these different conservation laws are discussed, including the forms of global constants of motion. The main results consist of providing an explicit characterization for when two conservation laws are locally or globally equivalent, and for when a conservation law is locally or globally trivial, as well as…
We study a class of variational problems for regularized conservation laws with Lax's entropy-entropy flux pairs. We first introduce a modified optimal transport space based on conservation laws with diffusion. Using this space, we demonstrate that conservation laws with diffusion are "flux--gradient flows". We next construct variational problems for these flows, for which we derive dual PDE systems for regularized conservation laws. Several examples, including traffic flow and Burgers' equation, are presented. Incorporating both primal-dual algorithms and monotone schemes, we successfully com…
