Abstract

The exhaustive group classification of the class of KdV-like equations with time-dependent coefficients u t + uu x + g(t)u xxx + h(t)u = 0 is carried out using equivalence based approach. A simple way for the construction of exact solutions of KdV-like equations using equivalence transformations is described.
