In this article, a generalized Hirota–Satsuma coupled Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) system is investigated from the group standpoint. This system represents an interplay of long waves with distinct dispersion correlations. Using Lie’s theory several symmetry reductions are performed and the system is reduced to systems of non-linear ordinary differential equations (NLODEs). Subsequently, the simplest equation method is invoked to find exact solutions of the NLODE systems, which then provides the solitary wave solutions for the system under discussion. Finally, we construct conservation laws of generalized Hirota–Satsuma coupled KdV system with the aid of general multiplier approach.
