In this paper, we study a nonlinear diffusion-convection-reaction equation with a variable coefficient which has applications in many fields. The Lie point symmetries of this equation are derived, according to which this equation is classified into four different kinds. Conservation laws for this equation are constructed by using the conservation theorem of Ibragimov.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
