We will prove the generalized Hyers-Ulam stability of the (inhomogeneous) diffusion equation with a source, ut(x,t)-k△u(x,t)=f(x,t), for a class of scalar functions with continuous second partial derivatives.

Using similarity methods, an investigation is made of a generalized nonlinear diffusion equation arising in plasma physics in connexion with several recently proposed models for turbulent plasma energy transport and particle diffusion.In almost every field of physics, diffusion or transport equations of the form Ψt = Δ. (DΔΨ) play an important role. The theory of linear diffusion equations, where the diffusion constant D is independent of Ψ, has been developed to a high degree of sophistication (e.g. Carsiaw & Jaeger 1959).

Using the method of self-similar solution of partial differential equations, analytical solutions for the two- and three-dimensional inhomogeneous diffusion equations with the diffusion coefficients D ~ rm are obtained. The solutions found can be useful in studying the diffusion characteristics of some fluids and plasmas.
