Abstract

The derivation of conservation laws for the wave equation on sphere, cone and flat space is considered. The partial Noether approach is applied for wave equation on curved surfaces in terms of the coefficients of the first fundamental form (FFF) and the partial Noether operator's determining equations are derived. These determining equations are then used to construct the partial Noether operators and conserved vectors for the wave equation on different surfaces. The conserved vectors for the wave equation on the sphere, cone and flat space are simplified using the Lie point symmetry generators of the equation and conserved vectors with the help of the symmetry conservation laws relation.
