Lie symmetry analysis of the time fractional KdV-type equation

Abstract The Lie symmetry analysis method is extended to deal with the time fractional KdV-type equation. It is shown that this equation can be reduced to an equation with the Erdelyi–Kober fractional derivative. This method can also be applied to symmetry classification of fractional equations with some arbitrary functions.
