Abstract
Homotopy analysis method is used to analyze the effect of thermophoretic particle deposition on magnetohydrodynamic mixed convection flow with heat and mass transfer over a porous wedge. An explicit analytical solution is obtained which is valid throughout the solution domain and is consistent with numerical results.
