Korteweg‐deVries Equation and Generalizations. V. Uniqueness and Nonexistence of Polynomial Conservation Laws

The conservation laws derived in an earlier paper for the Korteweg‐deVries equation are proved to be the only ones of polynomial form. An algebraic operator formalism is developed to obtain explicit formulas for them.
