Functional Separable Solutions to Nonlinear Diffusion Equations by Group Foliation Method

We consider the functional separation of variables to the nonlinear diffusion equation with source and convection term： ut = （A（x）D（u）ux）x ＋ B（x）Q（u）, Ax ≠ 0. The functional separation of variables to this equation is studied by using the group foliation method. A classification is carried out for the equations which admit the function separable solutions. As a consequence, some solutions to the resulting equations are obtained.
