Nonstandard perturbation approximation and travelling wave solutions of nonlinear reaction diffusion equations

This paper deals with the construction of a nonstandard numerical method to compute the travelling wave solutions of nonlinear reaction diffusion equations at high wave speeds. Related general properties are studied using the perturbation approximation. At high wave speed the perturbation parameter approaches to zero and the problem exhibits a multiscale character. That is, there are thin layers where the solution varies rapidly, while away from these layers the solution behaves regularly and varies slowly. Most of the conventional methods fail to capture this layer behavior. Thus, the quest for some new numerical techniques that may handle the travelling wave solutions at high wave speeds earns relevance. In this paper, one such parameter robust nonstandard numerical scheme is constructed, in the sense that its numerical solution converges in the maximum norm to the exact solution uniformly well for all finite wave speeds. To overcome the difficulty due to the nonlinearity, the problem is linearized using the quasilinearization process followed by nonstandard finite difference discretization. An extensive amount of analysis is carried out which uses a suitable decomposition of the error into smooth and singular component and a comparison principle combined with appropriate barrier functions. The error estimates are obtained, which ensures uniform convergence of the method. A set of numerical experiment is carried out in support of the predicted theory that validates computationally the theoretical results. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Bifurcation studies on travelling wave solutions for an integrable nonlinear wave equation

By using the method of planar dynamical systems to an integrable nonlinear wave equation, the existence of periodic travelling wave, solitary wave and kink wave solutions is proved in the different parametric conditions. The phase portraits of the travelling wave system are given. It can be shown that the existence of singular curves in the travelling wave system is the reason why the travelling wave solutions lose their smoothness. Moreover, the so-called W/M-shaped solitary wave solutions are obtained.

Exact solutions of semilinear radial wave equations in n dimensions

Exact solutions are derived for an n-dimensional radial wave equation with a general power nonlinearity. The method, which is applicable more generally to other nonlinear PDEs, involves an ansatz technique to solve a first-order PDE system of group-invariant variables given by group foliations of the wave equation, using the one-dimensional admitted point symmetry groups. (These groups comprise scalings and time translations, admitted for any nonlinearity power, in addition to space-time inversions admitted for a particular conformal nonlinearity power.) This is shown to yield not only group-invariant solutions as derived by standard symmetry reduction, but also other exact solutions of a more general form. In particular, solutions with interesting analytical behavior connected with blow-ups as well as static monopoles are obtained.     

The lie group and integrability of the Fisher type travelling wave equation

For the Fisher-type wave equation, which has two stable states and one unstable state, it is proved that only in two particular cases, the corresponding travelling wave equation admits a double parameter Lie group, and based on a method different to the traditional one, its two independent first integrals are given. It is proved further that in the two integrable cases, the different bounded and non-trivial travelling wave solutions, which are corresponding the invariant manifolds of the corresponding equation under the Lie transformation, can be expressed with elementary functions although they cannot be obtained directly from the two independent first integrals.

A Note on Some Sub-Equation Methods and New Types of Exact Travelling Wave Solutions for Two Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations

Sub-equation methods are used for constructing exact travelling wave solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations. The key idea of these methods is to take full advantage of all kinds of special solutions of sub-equation, which is usually a nonlinear ordinary differential equation. We present a function transformation which not only gives us a clear relation among these sub-equation methods, but also can be used to obtain the general solutions of these sub-equations. And then new exact travelling wave solutions of the CKdV-MKdV equation and the CKdV equations as applications of this transformation are obtained, and the approach presented in this paper can be also applied to other nonlinear partial differential equations.

It is shown that the sign of the parameter can be applied in judging the existence of vari-ous forms of travelling wave solutions. An efficiency of this method is demonstrated on some e-quations,which include Burgers-Huxley equation,Caudrey-Dodd-Gibbon-Kawada equation,gen-eralized Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation and generalized Fisher equation.     

Exact solitary wave solutions of nonlinear wave equations

The hyperbolic function method for nonlinear wave equations is presented. In support of a computer algebra system, many exact solitary wave solutions of a class of nonlinear wave equations are obtained via the method. The method is based on the fact that the solitary wave solutions are essentially of a localized nature. Writing the solitary wave solutions of a nonlinear wave equation as the polynomials of hyperbolic functions, the nonlinear wave equation can be changed into a nonlinear system of algebraic equations. The system can be solved via Wu Elimination or Gr?bner base method. The exact solitary wave solutions of the nonlinear wave equation are obtained including many new exact solitary wave solutions.

Some exact explicit parametric representations of travelling wave solutions are listed.     

Exact travelling wave solutions for the dissipative (2 + 1)-dimensional AKNS equation

This paper employs the theory of planar dynamical systems and undetermined coefficient method to study travelling wave solutions of the dissipative (2 + 1)-dimensional AKNS equation. By qualitative analysis, global phase portraits of the dynamic system corresponding to the equation are obtained under different parameter conditions. Furthermore, the relations between the properties of travelling wave solutions and the dissipation coefficient r of the equation are investigated. In addition, the possible bell profile solitary wave solution, kink profile solitary wave solutions and approximate damped oscillatory solutions of the equation are obtained by using undetermined coefficient method. Error estimates indicate that the approximate solutions are meaningful. Based on above studies, a main contribution in this paper is to reveal the dissipation effect on travelling wave solutions of the dissipative (2 + 1)-dimensional AKNS equation.

A rational generalization of Fan’s method and its application to generalized shallow water wave equations

In this paper we employ a rational expansion to generalize Fan’s method for exact travelling wave solutions for nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). To verify the reliability of the proposed method, the generalized shallow water wave (GSWW) equation has been investigated as an example. Kinds of new exact travelling wave solutions of a rational form have been obtained. This indicates that the proposed method provides a more general result for exact solution of nonlinear equations.     

Error estimates of structure-preserving Fourier pseudospectral methods for the fractional Schrödinger equation

This paper gives a rigorous error analysis of the multisymplectic Fourier pseudospectral method for the nonlinear fractional Schrödinger equation. The method preserves some intrinsic structure properties including the generalized multisymplectic conservation law. By rewriting it in a matrix form similar to that in the finite difference method, the method is shown to be convergent in the discrete L² norm with the second-order accuracy in time and spectral accuracy in space. The key techniques in the analysis include the discrete energy method, cutoff of the nonlinearity, and a posterior bound of numerical solutions by using the inverse inequality. In a similar line, the convergence result for the symplectic Fourier pseudospectral method can also be established. Moreover, the errors in the local and global energy conservation laws of discrete systems are also investigated. Numerical tests are performed to confirm the theoretical results.
