Conditional Lie-Bäcklund Symmetries and Reductions of the Nonlinear Diffusion Equations with Source

Conditional Lie-Bäcklund symmetry approach is used to study the invariant subspace of the nonlinear diffusion equations with source ut=e−qx(epxP(u)uxm)x+Q(x,u), m≠1. We obtain a complete list of canonical forms for such equations admit multidimensional invariant subspaces determined by higher order...

Description
Summary:Conditional Lie-Bäcklund symmetry approach is used to study the invariant subspace of the nonlinear diffusion equations with source ut=e−qx(epxP(u)uxm)x+Q(x,u), m≠1. We obtain a complete list of canonical forms for such equations admit multidimensional invariant subspaces determined by higher order conditional Lie-Bäcklund symmetries. The resulting equations are either solved exactly or reduced to some finite-dimensional dynamic systems.
