Thus, the main objective is to obtain novel analytical solutions by studying the model from a Lie group analysis standpoint, a methodological approach that has not been previously reported for this equation. An optimal system of one-dimensional subalgebras is constructed, from which similarity reductions and corresponding group-invariant solutions are derived. Several ansatz-based techniques are then employed to generate analytical solutions of the reduced equations. The analytical solutions are visualized through three-dimensional, two-dimensional, and density plots, demonstrating a variety of wave behaviours under appropriate choices of arbitrary constants and admissible parameter ranges. In addition, conserved vectors associated with the governing equation are derived using the multiplier method. These results will provide deeper insight into the structure and dynamics of the model and support further analytical and numerical studies.

The conformable fractional order is shown to act as a temporal scaling parameter that modifies the phase velocity of each wave type without altering its spatial structure, a behavior verified comparatively across all three models.

As a model abstracted from a specific convection system and famous for chaotic behaviors, the Lorenz-63 model provides a theoretical prototype for the correlation between turbulence and the intrinsic chaos of nonlinear dynamics. Given the difficulty of identifying and predicting the states for high-dimensional chaotic systems, the Liutex method in turbulence research is creatively applied to capture the evolution of a flow in the strange attractor, which can be regarded as switching between vortices. Based on the Liutex method, the rules for identifying the switching can be established and the judgment of switching onset derived from the rules significantly precedes the observed occurrence of inter-vortex switching. Through comparison with the other two closest identification methods, this method has been verified to have advantages of lead time and accuracy. Statistics on switching points identified by this method also facilitate the estimation of the duration of vortices. A theoretical analysis for estimating the cycle number in distinct vortex regions is conducted within the framework of quantum mechanics; furthermore, by quantizing the chaotic system and drawing an analogy with the spin system, the particular solution for the two-level case is obtained. The form of this particular solution is also applicable to the <i>n</i>-level scenario, which provides a new paradigm for addressing the switching behavior in chaotic systems.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":597,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Theoretical Physics","volume":"65 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2026-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148926776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
