In this work, we consider the chiral nonlinear Schrödinger equation in (2 + 1)-dimensions, which describes the envelope of amplitude in many physical media. We employ the Lie symmetry analysis method to study the vector field and the optimal system of the equation. The similarity reductions are analyzed by considering the optimal system. Furthermore, we find the power series solution of the equation with convergence analysis. Based on a new conservation law, we construct the conservation laws of the equation by using the resulting symmetries.

It has been shown that progression of waves in deep water is described by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with time-dependent diffraction and nonlinearity coefficients. Investigation of the solutions is done here in the two cases when the coefficients are proportional or otherwise. In the first case, it is shown that the water waves are traveling at time-dependent speed and are periodic waves, which are coupled to solitons or elliptic waves seen in the noninertial frames. In the inertial frames wave modulation instability is visualized. In the second case, and when the diffraction coefficient dominates the nonlinearity, water waves collapse with unbounded amplitude at finite time. Exact solutions are found here by using the extended unified method together, while presenting a new algorithm for treating nonlinear coupled partial differential equations.
