Enhanced group analysis and conservation laws of variable coefficient reaction-diffusion equations with power nonlinearities (Q879069)

With Lie symmetry point of view (equivalence transformations, conservation laws, exact solution) the authors study nonlinear partial differential equations of general form \(f(x)u_t=(g(x)u^nu_x)_x+h(x)u^m,\;f,g\) and \(h\) are arbitrary smooth functions, \(f(x)g(x)\neq 0, n\neq 0\) and \(m\) are arbitrary constants. The complete group classification with respect to convenient equivalence groups and to the set of all local transformations is given. Local conservation laws are classified, some exact solutions are constructed. The case \(n=0\) is excluded as well-investigated.
