摘要: In this paper, Lie symmetry is investigated for a new integrable coupled Korteweg--de Vries (KdV) equation system. Using some symmetry subalgebra of the equation system, we obtain five types of the significant similarity reductions. Abundant solutions of the coupled KdV equation system, such as the solitary wave solution, exponential solution, rational solution and polynomial solution, etc. are obtained from the reduced equations. Especially, one type of group-invariant solution of reduced equations can be acquired by means of the Painlev\'e I transcendent function.
