Korteweg‐de Vries Equation and Generalizations. II. Existence of Conservation Laws and Constants of Motion

With extensive use of the nonlinear transformations presented in Paper I of the series, a variety of conservation laws and constants of motion are derived for the Korteweg‐de Vries and related equations. A striking connection with the Sturm‐Liouville eigenvalue problem is exploited.
