A class of generalized nonlinear p-Laplacian evolution equations is studied. These equations model radial diffusion-reaction processes in $n\geq 1$ dimensions, where the diffusivity depends on the gradient of the flow. For this class, all…

We reflect on the possibility of having a matter action that is invariant only under transverse diffeomorphisms. This possibility is particularly interesting for the dark sector, where no restrictions arise based on the weak equivalence…
