Conservation Laws for a Generalized Coupled Korteweg-de Vries System

We construct conservation laws for a generalized coupled KdV system, which is a third-order system of nonlinear partial differential equations. We employ Noether's approach to derive the conservation laws. Since the system does not have a Lagrangian, we make use of the transformation u=Ux, v=Vx...
