The Ginzburg–Landau (GL) equation is one of the most important nonlinear equation in physics. It is used to model a vast variety of phenomena in physics like nonlinear waves, second order phase transitions, Bose–Einstein condensation, superfluidity, superconductivity, liquid crystals and strings in field theory.

Similarity solutions for a class of Fractional Reaction-Diffusion equation

This work studies exact solvability of a class of fractional reaction-diffusion equation with the Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives on the half-line in terms of the similarity solutions. We derived the conditions for the equation to possess scaling symmetry even with the fractional derivatives. Relations among the scaling exponents are determined, and the appropriate similarity variable introduced. With the similarity variable we reduced the differential partial differential equation to a fractional ordinary differential equation. Exactly solvable systems are then identified by matching the resulted ordinary differential equation with the known exactly solvable fractional ones. Several examples involving the three-parameter Mittag-Leffler function (Kilbas-Saigo function) are presented. The models discussed here turn out to correspond to superdiffusive systems.
