Abstract
The nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow problem with Hall current caused by stretching surface having power law velocity distribution is solved by employing homotopy analysis method (HAM). Perturbation solution of stream function, the expression of skin friction coefficient and graphical results in absence of Hall current (Chiam, Int J Eng Sci 33 (1995), 429) are recovered as the limiting cases. It is found that unlike the solution obtained by Chiam (1995), the present results are valid for weak and large magnetic parameters.
