Abstract

We use a new version of the conditional symmetry method to obtain rank-k solutions expressed in terms of Riemann invariants of the isentropic compressible ideal fluid flow in 3+1 dimensions. We describe the procedure for constructing bounded solutions in terms of the elliptic Weierstrass p-function in detail.
