Abstract

We applied the works inspired by Kumei and Bluman in the determination and evaluation of time-dependent financial investments especially in the DC-Pension fund optimization. We established the applicability of Lie symmetry analysis and the reductions techniques of the Lie-symmetry to transform (2+1) dimensional nonlinear pde into a system of (1+1) linear equation with its solutions and obtained the optimal strategy.
