Conservation laws for shallow water waves on a sloping beach (Q5903435)

Shallow water waves are governed by a pair of quasi-linear partial differential equations. In this paper, the associated homogeneous and non-homogeneous systems were transferred to the hodograph plane, where all the non-simple wave solutions were found and infinitely many polynomial conservation laws were constructed. The author also established correspondence between conservation laws and hodograph solutions as well as Bäcklund transformations by using the linear nature of the problems on the hodograph plane.
