Soliton solution and bifurcation analysis of the Zakharov–Kuznetsov–Benjamin–Bona–Mahoney equation with power law nonlinearity

This paper addresses the Zakharov–Kuznetsov–Benjamin–Bona–Mahoney equation with power law nonlinearity. First the soliton solution is obtained by the aid of traveling wave hypothesis and along with it the constraint conditions fall out naturally, in order for the soliton solution to exist. Subsequently, the bifurcation analysis of this equation is carried out and the fixed points are obtained. The phase portraits are also analyzed for the existence of other solutions.     

Peakon Soliton Solutions Of K(2,-2,4) Equation

In this paper, the qualitative analysis methods of a dynamical system are used to investigate the peakon soliton solutions of K(2;-2; 4) equation: ut + a(u2)x + b[u-2(u4)xx]x = 0. The phase portrait bifurcation of the traveling wave system corresponding to the equation is given. The explicit expressions of the peakon soliton solutions are obtained by using the portraits. The graph of the solutions are given with the numerical simulation. This supplements the results obtained in [4].

Steady bifurcation and solitons in relativistic laser plasmas interaction

In this paper, steady bifurcation and solitons in relativistic laser plasmas interaction are investigated. At first, a new coupled equation for wake wave and the circularly polarized transversal electromagnetic wave is derived. It is a Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom. Then, a steady bifurcation analysis based on the coexistence of three different equilibrium states is given. Finally, a condition for predicting the existence of solitons is obtained in terms of the bifurcation control parameter and Hamiltonian function value. The soliton solutions are found numerically. It is shown that the solitons can exist in appropriate regime of vector potential frequency.     

Interaction among a lump,periodic waves,and kink solutions to the fractional generalized CBS‐BK equation

The Hirota bilinear method is prepared for searching the diverse soliton solutions for the fractional generalized Calogero‐Bogoyavlenskii‐Schiff‐Bogoyavlensky‐Konopelchenko (CBS‐BK) equation. Also, the Hirota bilinear method is used to finding the lump and interaction with two stripe soliton solutions. Interaction among lumps, periodic waves, and multi‐kink soliton solutions will be investigated. Also, the solitary wave, periodic wave, and cross‐kink wave solutions will be examined for the fractional gCBS‐BK equation. The graphs for various fractional order α are plotted to contain 3D plot, contour plot, density plot, and 2D plot. We construct the exact lump and interaction among other types solutions, by solving the under‐determined nonlinear system of algebraic equations for the associated parameters. Finally, analysis and graphical simulation are presented to show the dynamical characteristics of our solutions and the interaction behaviors are revealed. The existence conditions are employed to discuss the available got solutions.

Exact front, soliton and hole solutions for a modified complex Ginzburg-Landau equation from the harmonic balance method

A novel approach of using harmonic balance (HB) method is presented to find front, soliton and hole solutions of a modified complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. Three families of exact solutions are obtained, one of which contains two parameters while the others one parameter. The HB method is an efficient technique in finding limit cycles of dynamical systems. In this paper, the method is extended to obtain homoclinic/heteroclinic orbits and then coherent structures. It provides a systematic approach as various methods may be needed to obtain these families of solutions. As limit cycles with arbitrary value of bifurcation parameter can be found through parametric continuation, this approach can be extended further to find analytic solution of complex quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation in terms of Fourier series.

In different regions of the parametric space, the sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence of the above solutions are given. In some conditions, exact parametric representations of these waves in explicit and implicit forms are obtained.     

Multiple soliton solutions for the Bogoyavlenskii’s generalized breaking soliton equations and its extension form

In this work, two generalized breaking soliton equations, namely, the Bogoyavlenskii’s breaking soliton equation and its extended form, are examined. The complete integrability of these equation are justified. Multiple soliton solutions and multiple singular soliton solutions are formally derived for each equation. The additional terms of these equations do not kill the integrability of the typical breaking soliton equation. The Cole-Hopf transformation method and the simplified Hereman’s method are applied to conduct this analysis.     

Dark solitonic excitations and collisions from a fourth-order dispersive nonlinear Schrödinger model for the alpha helical protein

Recent protein observations motivate the dark-soliton study to explain the energy transfer in the proteins. In this paper we will investigate a fourth-order dispersive nonlinear Schrödinger equation, which governs the Davydov solitons in the alpha helical protein with higher-order effects. Painlevé analysis is performed to prove the equation is integrable. Through the introduction of an auxiliary function, bilinear forms and dark N-soliton solutions are constructed with the Hirota method and symbolic computation. Asymptotic analysis on the two-soliton solutions indicates that the soliton collisions are elastic. Decrease of the coefficient of higher-order effects can increase the soliton velocities. Graphical analysis on the two-soliton solutions indicates that the head-on collision between the two solitons, overtaking collision between the two solitons and collision between a moving soliton and a stationary one are all elastic. Collisions among the three solitons are all pairwise elastic.

In this work, we develop a new integrable equation by combining the KdV equation and the negative‐order KdV equation. We use concurrently the KdV recursion operator and the inverse KdV recursion operator to construct this new integrable equation. We show that this equation nicely passes the Painlevé test. As a result, multiple soliton solutions and other soliton and periodic solutions are guaranteed and formally derived.

We establish a two‐wave mode equation for the integrable Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation, which describes the propagation of two different wave modes in the same direction simultaneously. We determine the necessary conditions that make multiple soliton solutions exist for this new equation. The simplified Hirota's method will be used to conduct this work. We also use other techniques to obtain other set of periodic and singular solutions for the two‐mode Kadomtsev‐Petviashvili equation. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Dark soliton control in inhomogeneous optical fibers

Analytic two-dark soliton solutions for a variable–coefficient nonlinear Schrödinger equation are obtained via modified Hirota method. Parallel solitons are observed and soliton control such as the soliton compression is realized with different group velocity dispersion profiles. Besides, soliton interactions are investigated with the interaction distance being adjusted. In addition, soliton repulsive structures as well as attractive ones are obtained with exponential dispersion profile. Results in our research may be useful for the soliton control in inhomogeneous optical fibers, which will be a benefit to the realistic optical communication systems.
