Abstract: This article analyzes the symmetry of two-dimensional stationary gas dynamics equations in Lagrangian coordinates, including the search for equivalence transformations, the group classification of equations, the derivation of group foliations, and the construction of conservation laws. The consideration of equations in Lagrangian coordinates significantly simplifies the procedure for obtaining conservation laws, which are derived using the Noether theorem. The final part of the work is devoted to group foliations of the gas dynamics equations, including for the nonstationary isentropic case. The group foliations approach is usually employed for equations that admit infinite-dimensional groups of transformations (which is exactly the case for the gas dynamics equations in Lagrangian coordinates) and may make it possible to simplify their further analysis. The results obtained in this regard generalize previously known results for the two-dimensional shallow water equations in Lagrangian coordinates.
