    • Abstract

       

      A systematic method is given to derive Lie point symmetries of time-fractional partial differential equation with Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative and its applicability illustrated through

      1. time-fractional diffusive equation and

      2. time-fractional cylindrical Korteweg–de Vries equation.

      Using the Lie point symmetries obtained, we show that each of them has been transformed into ordinary differential equation of fractional order with a new independent variable. We also explain how exact or invariant solutions can be derived from the obtained point symmetries.
