Existence,Uniqueness, and Stability of Generalized Traveling Waves in Time Dependent Monostable Equations

The current paper is devoted to the study of traveling wave solutions of spatially homogeneous monostable reaction diffusion equations with ergodic or recurrent time dependence, which includes periodic and almost periodic time dependence as special cases. Such an equation has two spatially homogeneous and time recurrent solutions with one of them being stable and the other being unstable. Traveling wave solutions are a type of entire solutions connecting the two spatially homogeneous and time recurrent solutions. Recently, the author of the current paper proved that a spatially homogeneous time almost periodic monostable equation has a spreading speed in any given direction. This result can be easily extended to monostable equations with recurrent time dependence. In this paper, we introduce generalized traveling wave solutions for time recurrent monostable equations and show the existence of such solutions in any given direction with average propagating speed greater than or equal to the spreading speed in that direction and non-existence of such solutions of slower average propagating speed. We also show the uniqueness and stability of generalized traveling wave solutions in any given direction with average propagating speed greater than the spreading speed in that direction. Moreover, we show that a generalized traveling wave solution in a given direction with average propagating speed greater than the spreading speed in that direction is unique ergodic in the sense that its wave profile and wave speed are unique ergodic, and if the time dependence of the monostable equation is almost periodic, it is almost periodic in the sense that its wave profile and wave speed are almost periodic.     

New solitons and periodic wave solutions for nonlinear physical models

In this paper, an extended tanh method with computerized symbolic computation is used for constructing the traveling wave solutions of coupled nonlinear equations arising in physics. The obtained solutions include solitons, kinks, and plane periodic solutions. The applied method will be used in further works to establish more entirely new solutions for other kinds of nonlinear evolution equations arising in physics.     

The integral bifurcation method combined with factoring technique for investigating exact solutions and their dynamical properties of a generalized Gardner equation

It is well known that it is difficult to obtain exact solutions of some partial differential equations with highly nonlinear terms or high order terms because these kinds of equations are not integrable in usual conditions. In this paper, by using the integral bifurcation method and factoring technique, we studied a generalized Gardner equation which contains both highly nonlinear terms and high order terms, some exact traveling wave solutions such as non-smooth peakon solutions, smooth periodic solutions and hyperbolic function solutions to the considered equation are obtained. Moreover, we demonstrate the profiles of these exact traveling wave solutions and discuss their dynamic properties through numerical simulations.     

A generalized algebraic method of new explicit and exact solutions of the nonlinear dispersive generalized Benjiamin–Bona–Mahony equations

Nonlinear dispersive generalized Benjiamin–Bona–Mahony equations are studied by using a generalized algebraic method. New abundant families of explicit and exact traveling wave solutions, including triangular periodic, solitary wave, periodic-like, soliton-like, rational and exponential solutions are constructed, which are in agreement with the results reported in other literatures, and some new results are obtained. These solutions will be helpful to the further study of the physical meaning and laws of motion of the nature and the realistic models. The proposed method in this paper can be further extended to the 2+1 dimensional and higher dimensional nonlinear evolution equations or systems of equations.

For a nonlinear autonomous damped wave equation in a thin domain we provide conditions ensuring the existence of periodic solutions in time. Our approach uses both methods developed by Hale and Raugel and methods based on the topological degree theory together with some results on the functionalization of parameter.     

Analytical study of solitons to nonlinear time fractional parabolic equations

The some of the well-known nonlinear time fractional parabolic partial differential equations is studied in this paper. The fractional complex transform and the first integral method are employed to construct one-soliton solutions of these equations. The power of this manageable method is confirmed. The obtained solutions include solitary wave solutions, periodic wave solutions and combined formal solutions.     

Periodic Traveling Waves for Diffusion Equations with Time Delayed and Non-local Responding Reaction

We develop a singular perturbation technique to study the existence of periodic traveling wave solutions with large wave speed for a class of reaction-diffusion equations with time delay and non-local response. Unlike the classical singular perturbation method, our approach is based on a transformation of the differential equations to integral equations in a Banach space that reduces the singular perturbation problem to a regular perturbation problem. The periodic traveling wave solutions then are obtained by the use of Liapunov-Schmidt method and a generalized implicit function theorem. The general result obtained has been applied to a non-local reaction-diffusion equation derived from an age-structured population model with a logistic type of birth function.     

Well-Posedness for Multicomponent Schrödinger–gKdV Systems and Stability of Solitary Waves with Prescribed Mass

In this paper we prove the well-posedness issues of the associated initial value problem, the existence of nontrivial solutions with prescribed \(L^2\)-norm, and the stability of associated solitary waves for two classes of coupled nonlinear dispersive equations. The first problem here describes the nonlinear interaction between two Schrödinger type short waves and a generalized Korteweg-de Vries type long wave and the second problem describes the nonlinear interaction of two generalized Korteweg-de Vries type long waves with a common Schrödinger type short wave. The results here extend many of the previously obtained results for two-component coupled Schrödinger–Korteweg-de Vries systems.     

The effects of horizontal singular straight line in a generalized nonlinear Klein–Gordon model equation

In this paper, we investigate bounded traveling waves of the generalized nonlinear Klein–Gordon model equations by using bifurcation theory of planar dynamical systems to study the effects of horizontal singular straight lines in nonlinear wave equations. Besides the well-known smooth traveling wave solutions and the non-smooth ones, four kinds of new bounded singular traveling wave solution are found for the first time. These singular traveling wave solutions are characterized by discontinuous second-order derivatives at some points, even though their first-order derivatives are continuous. Obviously, they are different from the singular traveling wave solutions such as compactons, cuspons, peakons. Their implicit expressions are also studied in this paper. These new interesting singular solutions, which are firstly founded, enrich the results on the traveling wave solutions of nonlinear equations. It is worth mentioning that the nonlinear equations with horizontal singular straight lines may have abundant and interesting new kinds of traveling wave solution.     

Exact Explicit Peakon and Periodic Cusp Wave Solutions for Several Nonlinear Wave Equations

Using the method of dynamical systems for six nonlinear wave equations, the exact explicit parametric representations of the solitary cusp wave solutions and the periodic cusp wave solutions are given. These parametric representations follow that when travelling systems corresponding to these nonlinear wave equations has a singular straight line, under some parameter conditions, nonanalytic travelling wave solutions must appear.

Exact traveling wave solutions in the coupled plane-base rotator model of DNA

The internal dynamics of the DNA base pairs is studied starting from the generalized coupled plane base-rotator model of DNA, obtained by Yomosa and later improved by Takeno and Homma. We conceive the double-stranded DNA as an anisotropically coupled spin chain simple model. The generalized Hamiltonian expressed in terms of quasi-spin operators is averaged over the generalized coherent states in the Perelomov sense, in order to obtain the classical non-linear evolution equations of this molecular system where the inhomogeneity has not been considered. This approach provides the equations of motion, which could be reduced to a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a saturable nonlinearity. This non-linear equation, under certain restrictions in the parametric space, supports traveling periodic triangular, bell, bubble and kink like solutions.

New explicit and exact traveling wave solutions for two nonlinear evolution equations

In this paper, with the aid of computer symbolic computation system such as Maple, an algebraic method is firstly applied to two nonlinear evolution equations, namely, nonlinear Schrodinger equation and Pochhammer–Chree (PC) equation. As a consequence, some new types of exact traveling wave solutions are obtained, which include bell and kink profile solitary wave solutions, triangular periodic wave solutions, and singular solutions. The method is straightforward and concise, and it can also be applied to other nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics.     

On the characterization of breather and rogue wave solutions and modulation instability of a coupled generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equations

We construct Darboux transformation of a coupled generalized nonlinear Schrödinger (CGNLS) equations and obtain exact analytic expressions of breather and rogue wave solutions. We also formulate the conditions for isolating these solutions. We show that the rogue wave solution can be found only when the four wave mixing parameter becomes real. We also investigate the modulation instability of the steady state solution of CGNLS system and demonstrate that it can occur only when the four wave mixing parameter becomes real. Our results give an evidence for the connection between the occurrence of rogue wave solution and the modulation instability.     

Solitary wave interactions and reshaping in coupled systems

The interaction of the components of composite solitary waves governed by nonlinear coupled equations is studied numerically. It is shown how predictions of the known exact traveling wave solutions may help in understanding and explaining the process of reshaping seen as head-on and take-over collisions of individual solitary waves. The most interesting results concern the switch in the sign or the periodic modulation of the amplitude of the solitary wave and the direction of its propagation due to collisions.

Periodic and quasiperiodic motion for complex non-linear systems

A damped complex non-linear system corresponding to two coupled non-linear oscillators with a periodic damping force is investigated by an asymptotic perturbation method based on Fourier expansion and time rescaling. Four coupled equations for the amplitude and the phase of solutions are derived. Phase-locked solutions with period equal to the damping force period are possible only if the oscillators amplitudes are equal. On the contrary, if the oscillators amplitudes are different, periodic solutions exist only with a period different from the damping force period. These solutions are stable only for perturbations that conserve the phase difference and the square amplitude sum of the oscillators. Energy considerations are used in order to study existence and characteristics of quasiperiodic motion. We demonstrate that modulated motion can be also obtained for appropriate values of the detuning parameter and in this case an approximate analytic solution is easily constructed. If the detuning parameter decreases the modulation period increases and then diverges, an infinite-period bifurcation occurs and the resulting motion becomes unbounded. Analytic approximate solutions are checked by numerical integration.
