The diffusion is the result of Brownian movement and occurs with a finite velocity. We presented the nonlinear diffusion equation, with diffusion coefficient directly proportional to the impurities concentration. Analytical solutions, showing that the maximum displacements of diffusing particles are proportional to the square root of diffusion time like for Brownian movement, was obtained. For small concentrations of impurities, nonlinear diffusion equation transforms to linear.

An explicit mapping is given from the space of general complex meromorphic functions to a space of special time-dependent solutions of the 1 + 2-dimensional nonlinear diffusion equation with diffusivity depending on concentration as D = 1 / u. These solutions have constant-flux boundary conditions. Some simple examples are constructed, including that of a line source enclosed by a cylindrical barrier. This has direct application to electron diffusion in a laser-heated plasma.

Abstract The nonlinear diffusion equation of the ideal barotropic gas through a porous medium is considered. If the diffusion coefficient is degenerate on the boundary, then the solutions may be controlled by the initial value completely, the well-posedness of the solutions may be obtained without any boundary condition.
