1. Introduction
In this paper, we consider the Jaulent-Miodek (JM) equations [1]
which associates with the JM spectral problem [2,3] and energy-dependent Schrodinger potential [4,5,6]. There are a plethora of methods to solve system (1), such as exp-function method [7,8,9,10], tanh-coth and sech methods [11,12,13,14]. A numerical method is available in [15]. According to our understanding, the Lie symmetry and conservation laws of the JM equations have not been done yet. This paper will give the symmetry reduction and conservation laws of the system (1) and construct its exact solution.
The structure of this paper is as follows: In Section 2, the Lie symmetry of the Jaulent-Miodek (JM) equations are calculated and one dimensional optimal systems of Lie algebra are obtained; in Section 3, the conservation laws of the system are given by adjoint equation method; in Section 4, the exact solutions of the system are constructed by the conservation laws; and in Section 5, a brief summary is made of the full text.
2. Lie Symmetry Analysis and Optimal Systems
2.1. Lie Symmetry
In this section, we will perform Lie symmetry analysis for the system (1). We first assume that the infinitesimal generator [16] allowed of the system (1) is:
where are coefficient functions to be determined.
For the system (1), V satisfies the following Lie symmetry conditions as follows
where
By Lie’s theory, the third prolongation [17] of (2) is of the form

Combining (3) and (4), we get the determining equations of system (1) as follows:
Substituting system (6) into the equivalent condition (7), and making the coefficients of the various monomials in partial derivatives with respect to x and various powers of u equaled, one then obtains the over determining equations of system (7):
Solving (8), one can get
where are three arbitrary constants. Therefore, the three-dimensional Lie algebra of infinitesimal symmetries for Jaulent-Miodek (JM) equations (1) are spanned by the following three vector fields:
2.2. Optimal System
In this section, we research the one-dimensional optimal system of (10). The basic method of constructing one-dimensional optimal system is given in ref. [18]. The adjoint transformation is expressed as the following series form:
