Group classification of variable coefficient quasilinear reaction-diffusion equations

The group classification of variable coefficient quasilinear reaction-diffusion equations $u_t=u_{xx}+h(x)B(u)$ is carried out exhaustively. This became possible due to usage of a conditional equivalence group found in the course of the study of admissible point transformation within the class.Comment: 10 pages, submitted to the Proceedings of the XVII Geometrical Seminar (September 3-8, 2012, Zlatibor, Serbia

Group classification of variable coefficient KdV-like equations

The exhaustive group classification of the class of KdV-like equations with time-dependent coefficients $u_t+uu_x+g(t)u_{xxx}+h(t)u=0$ is carried out using equivalence based approach. A simple way for the construction of exact solutions of KdV-like equations using equivalence transformations is described.Comment: 8 pages; minor misprints are corrected. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1104.198

Lie symmetries and exact solutions of variable coefficient mKdV equations: an equivalence based approach

Group classification of classes of mKdV-like equations with time-dependent coefficients is carried out. The usage of equivalence transformations appears a crucial point for the exhaustive solution of the problem. We prove that all the classes under consideration are normalized. This allows us to formulate the classification results in three ways: up to two kinds of equivalence (which are generated by transformations from the corresponding equivalence groups and all admissible point transformations) and using no equivalence. A simple way of the construction of exact solutions of mKdV-like equations using equivalence transformations is described.Comment: 10 pages, minor change
