We apply the method of preliminary group classification to ordinary differential equations of the formy(n)=E(x,y,y',…,y(n-1),fi(x)),  i=0,…,m.We show how this method can be implemented via the popular symmetry analysis packagePROGRAM LIEprovided that the package is supplemented with a small file. We then apply this method to an extension of the generalised Emden-Fowler equation given byy′′=∑i=25fixyi.

In this work we consider a generalized Ostrovsky equation depending on two arbitrary functions and we make an in-depth study of this equation. We obtain the Lie symmetries which are admitted by this equation and some exact solutions as a periodic or solitary waves, obtained through ordinary and partial differential equations. Also, by means of the concept of multiplier, we obtain a wide range of conservation laws which preserve properties of the generalized Ostrovsky equation.
