Abstract

In this chapter, we study a generalized Fisher equation based on the theory of symmetry reductions in partial differential equations. Optimal systems and reduced equations are obtained. We derive some travelling wave solutions by applying the (G'/G)-expansion method to one of these reduced equation.
